There is a box on the other side of the driveway but it’s just a home depot tote and not even a weather proof one. No signage anywhere near the “box”. My first thought was mark it unsafe and rts it. Second thought was to launch it at the empty Amazon box sitting in the yard about 10 yards behind the sign. I did put it in the tote because this guy is for sure a complainer. It took everything in me to do so though.

AMAZON DRIVERS HAVE HAD ENOUGH!
📦 400–500 packages. ⏱️ 20-minute loadouts. 💧 Rushed just to grab water. 📢 Yelled at by Amazon warehouse management while trying to load our vans.

WE ARE DRIVERS, NOT ROBOTS! ✊

📣 TO AMAZON WAREHOUSE MANAGEMENT:
We demand RESPECT! Stop rushing us, yelling at us, and treating drivers like numbers. We deserve enough time to load safely and get drinking water.

📣 TO DSP OWNERS:
✅ Respect your drivers!
✅ Follow labor laws!
✅ Provide proper uniforms!
✅ Maintain SAFE, CLEAN vehicles!
✅ Set REALISTIC return-to-station times!
✅ Respect our legally required breaks and meal periods!
✅ Provide fair holiday time-off opportunities!
✅ Respect and fairly handle our PTO requests!

Charging my Tesla model y with an adapter at my station (hopefully warehouse management doesn’t care)

Just had to deliver 189 packages to an amazon locker that only has 40 slots total. Locker is located outside directly in the sun (texas btw) so takes extra time to try to get the barcode to work bc the amount of light. Also have customers interrupting me to get packages then have to rescan all 7 barcodes. Have to go Door 2 Door for 165 packages across a whole area that the locker is supposed to cover, which includes 25 5 story buildings with no elevators and a whole subdivision.

Wish they could’ve just cut the middle man out and have me directly scan the packages instead of spending an hour and a half scanning packages that will be redirected anyways that will be scanned on the phone anyways. Also none of the pins are accurate and are just at the locker. Have told dispatch numerous times about this stop and how the pins are never right and nothing has been done in months

was on route and upper management decided to pull up and do an inspection of the inside of my van 😒

At this point it’ll be weird to do a non rural route again lol

Coming up on a year as a driver at my 2nd dsp way better management (left the 1st on my own accord) some hardware I got along the way missed a couple due to seeing email late. What yall got? I’ve been a top driver at both dsps consistently people paint this job to be hard when in reality ts is sweet asf

There was a school on my route yesterday with the time set for 8AM-4PM. I got there around 5ish. I said maybe i was behind, I did take a lunch. But for my very last stop of the day, it was for a business set for 9AM-5PM. I got there at 8:30PM. How could I have ever possibly make it to my 200th stop before 5PM starting at 12:30? The app itself said I should be done around 9:30. Like it just said fuck that time lol

Do you think they thought of not ordering off Amazon?

Went to use the porter potty & yea….. 😳

I'm a 25 year old woman so this is a bit unnerving. It's a group interview, but still...... What do you guys think?

Edit: I'm going to bring a pepper spray, share my location with a couple people and have my dad on a call muted. I'm kind of going for the plot at this point, but I agree that this does kind of say something about how my experience working there will be. I'll keep y'all updated 😛

Edit 2: I got spooked again and told the guy I'm open to a phone interview or a public location and that I'm going to withdraw if not. I've had some traumatic experiences with men and have seen enough true crime to know this is not safe. If this was a horror movie everyone would be yelling at the screen not to do it 🙃

Edit 3: He said no to doing the interview at a public location or over the phone, so I backed out. I put in an application for another DSP anyway 🤷🏻‍♂️ Weird as hell.

Do you have the Ford transits and the ram promasters? Do you drive with the sliding cargo door open? Just about every driver in my town I see drives with that sliding door open but from my understanding is that's not supposed to be allowed and that's a fireable offense. So why is it majority of the drivers here get away with it? Prescott valley. Being compared to those that do and being called slow.

I’ve been sick since last night to the point my whole body is sore. I took a at home test and it said I was positive for the flu so I text my dsp telling them I’m gonna be out for a day or 2 because I’m so sick I can barely Stand. I even sent a picture of the test and got left on read so now idk if I should still stay home or not. Granted I don’t think it would even be safe but I’m also not trying to lose my job. I think I’m just gonna try and get a doctors appointment tomorrow so I’ll have a work note but it’s a little shitty that I’m telling you I have the flu and can’t get a response.

I start on Monday with training was wondering if there’s anything I should know or any helpful tips thank you

Candy canes.wtf

I got fired by my DSP for having trace alcohol on my breath from drinking the night prior with a friend, because their mom had passed away. They forced me to go in for a test and blew a .01.....would I able to go to a different DSP, or am i just screwed?

I’ve grown to love the ppl in my DSP everyone’s super friendly, we have pizza parties, cookouts, etc. The problem is I’m not hitting my 40hrs a week, I work hard, finish early or on time everyday and rarely get overtime opportunities bc my DSP doesn’t want to pay us for the full 40 hrs, they’ve started hiring new ppl for prime and in result half the teams hours have been cut. I was recently informed that a DSP in the same location will pay you for your full 10 hours even if you finish early and u get your guaranteed 4 days a week. I 100% would rather work for them but I feel like I’m betraying the homies if I openly go working for another DSP right in front of them. How do I go about this without feeling like an ass wipe 😭

I have been with my current DSP for a month in the UK, pretty much had an immaculate scorecard. Done everything by the book.

I just got a phone call from my DSP saying that Amazon have flagged an age restricted item not being delivered properly (checking ID) and they are having to terminate me. I don't remember the incident but I always do the proper checks.

Lucky for me its a second job for extra money, but this seems a bit brutal. Can I appeal? They said I cant even apply for other DSPs going forward.

Amazon have thrown the book at me without the chance to defend myself.

no daycare would accept her so she’s out delivering rural with her momma

^^

I’m lowkey just ranting, but one of the boxes was open, so I looked inside… and tell me why it was fucking HATS. 😭💀 BRO, YOU COULDN’T PUT THESE BITCHES IN A BIGGER BOX??? Like, who the fuck is packing this shit at the fulfillment center? Do they just close their eyes and use the smallest boxes ??? Anyways thanks for coming to my ted talk

I finished this commercial route in my downtown area exactly in 9.83 hours with a helper

so I uses to work at the warehouse and they don’t test for THC. I live in VA where it’s legal but I know companies can still decline. do any of y’all know if they test for it? im clean all across the board except for that and I’ve only been off of it for about two weeks
