Retailers like Amazon and Wal-Mart have been building more fulfillment centers and other infrastructure to handle surging online orders. This year, Amazon hired 70,000 seasonal workers for its U.S. warehouses, a 40% increase from the year before.
像亚马逊和沃尔玛这样的零售商一直在修建更多的物流中心和其他基础设施,以便处理不断激增的网络订单。今年,亚马逊为其美国的仓库雇佣了7万名季节工,较上年同比增加了40%。

That plan might have backfired for companies like Wal-Mart, where dozens of customers complained that items weren't available for pickup in stores by the promised date.
为缓解给可能出现的运输瓶颈带来的压力,很多连锁店鼓励顾客到店自提在网上购买的物品。这项计划对沃尔玛这样的公司可能带来了事与愿违的结果。在沃尔玛,数十名顾客抱怨说,在该公司承诺的日期前他们无法在店内自提所购物品。
