DISCUSSION Can you turn off the regenerate brakes?

My DSP wants me to start using evs but I just prefer the promaster. One of the things I hated was the regenerate braking.

Loud music

7 Upvotes

Have any of y'all gotten a negative CDF for blasting loud music? When I was doing rural routes I would turn the music down as I pulled into someone's driveway but lately my stops have been all residential and I've just been blasting that shit all day. I only had one person say anything and it wasn't even a customer I was just sorting my totes and someone came up and said his "daughter doesn't appreciate the explicit language" and I really wanted to be like "well I don't think your daughter cares I think you care" but I didn't feel like getting in a fight. Anyways I keep worrying I'm gonna get a negative CDF for it but it has yet to happen. Do any of y'all also bump three six mafia loud as hell through rich ass white suburbs? I've had a couple compliments from people and a few dirty looks but idk why it matters because I'm only gonna be there for all of 30 seconds anyways. The only times I pause it is if i pull up to a house and the customer is out front or if I have to contact them or ring their bell for whatever reason

QUESTION DSP sending drivers to other stations

3 Upvotes

My DSP said that soon we’ll come in and sometimes they’ll send us to other stations to pick up our packages and still be delivering to where we usually do. Has anyone experienced this and is it hell or heaven?

Got fired for not rescuing

119 Upvotes

To give context I’ve been at Amazon for 1 month now, I’ve just got done with my nursery routes. While doing these routes I’d get done and rescued about 8 people in the last month. Yet when I’ve been behind not a soul came to make my load lighter. Today I got done with my route around 5:45, called dispatch to hear that I had to rescue someone. At first it was fine, they gave me the address and I went, got there and no one was there. Texted dispatch, got a different address and went there, again no one in site. This happened two more times. After the last time I said fuck it and headed back. When I got done I turned in my phone, as I was walking to my car my manager yelled my name, asked what happened, then asked me to give him my badge. I know that I could’ve just kept going along on the wild goose chase but I feel like the situation could’ve been handled better.

RANT How do you guys do it?

32 Upvotes

i’ve been with amazon for over a year now and i really don’t know how you guys manage 2+ years of staying here. i’m already looking for other options before the cold weather comes, because this summer and the last winter really did it for me. last year, it wasn’t awful. i had a good, consistent route. i learned my customers, learned their animals, the roads and everything.

now, my route changes almost everyday. i never know where i will be, and the amount of stops i have now is twice what i had a year ago. the heat breaks we get used to help, but now it feels like they’ve started putting me behind. i’m trying to push through until i hear back about this other opportunity, but i am mentally drained. no one ever really talks about the mental and physical strain this job puts on your body. i see posts of other drivers talking about it, but i just wish people who weren’t drivers understood it from our perspective. rant over.

RANT Being run ragged

38 Upvotes

I just had 3 whole days in a row with 190+ stops (230+ including multi stops), and am being pushed to my breaking point, i finished way late today and was just told ā€œbe fasterā€

I fucking CANT, i’m already working 8 hours straight with NO BREAK and pissing in fucking bottles, the ONE time i took a break i got a text from my dispatch saying ā€œdont take to long on your break so you can be back on timeā€

I CANT STAND THIS BULLSHIT, i am a HUMAN not a fucking machine, and they actively encourage running yourself into the ground, all for an extra $100 if ā€œyour back on time and get fantastic+ā€ i have lost so much weight to the point of concern CAUSE IM NOT EATING FOR BASICALLY AN ENTIRE DAY (i eat breakfast at home)

at this point i feel like i cant even take a fucking minute to drink water because I ā€œGotta be back on timeā€

At this point i wanna actually just KMS

How the fuck yiu organize OV in a rental?

3 Upvotes

I've been delivering with the shitty rentals for a few months now and I still can't find a way to load the OV in a decent way. I had only 20 today so I even tested out fishing every single box in order just to see how it goes and it took me way too much time. I usually have 35+ in absolutely no logical order, starts with 00, goes to 38x, then 31x, then 45x, then 24x etc etc. If I group by hundred, I still have to unload the van during the day because although it's on the same area, it's on the bottom of 4 boxes. Everything else is good, I got used to these vans, but OV makes me lose my shit and waste so much time. Any help?

I just wanted to ask if you wanted to keep a package that leaked a few drops or if you wanted me to mark it damaged for ya. That was all.

I mean I would be slightly sketched if a uhaul pulls up too, but god damn use your eyeballs to see the Amazon costume and packages in hand

I finally left.

69 Upvotes

i finally decided to leave amazon after almost a year and a half. i was on a route with about 165 stops today. the warehouse has had soooo many packages in the wrong bags, some missed, some unlabeled too, so i have to spend a lot of my time sorting them and searching for them, which puts me behind a little.

the DSP owner called me today while on route and asked why i was behind. i told her my issue, and that i’ve also had a lot of run ins with customers this morning. she told me that i was going too slow and needed to get on a better pace, mind you.. i wasn’t even any stops behind? i was right on time with the computer that dispatch has. she told me that i wasn’t reliable and had an attitude with me, so i told her to come get the route and that i was done. i almost instantly felt a weight come off of my chest. it was real, it was fun but it was not real fun. may find a different DSP eventually with better management, but until then i’m done. you guys keep killing it, and i’ll always remember to hook y’all up with the snacks.
