$100,000 for perfect attendance (sort of)

Thought this was kinda interesting, especially on the heals of the referendum in AZ that would have given $1 million to one lucky voter in hopes of spurring voter turnout.

The folks at Amazon are attempting to woo holiday workers with a chance to win $100,000 if they achieve perfect attendance. Biggest drawback is that it's not guaranteed that someone will win the $100,000. The only thing guaranteed is $2,000. The winner of that then gets the opportunity to choose one of 100 envelopes, one of which has the $100,000. Feels a tad shady to me. I think a guaranteed amount of, say, $10,000 for one lucky winner would feel less shady. But hey, that's just me.
