This makes me question dozens of deliveries I made last year...

A Walmart delivery driver noticed dozens of packages addressed to different people arriving at the same Peoria, Arizona, home. Police say the report helped expose an online-shopping fraud operation involving approximately $1.4 million in merchandise and shipments bound for Vietnam.

Oh and this is nothing. I’ve seen like 13 ads this week. Tomorrow is my monday and I already know it’s about to be a 22 bag 50 overflow type of day, probably in a small rental. I actually feel like peak isn’t people ordering a lot, it’s just Amazon tempting and baiting them into buying more useless stuff. I’ve got the app and in don’t even order a lot of stuff. Oh well I signed up for this

If y’all are riding us about waiting the 90 seconds, how about someone makes it so we can’t finish the inspection before the 90 seconds?

With everything Amazon expects us to do, remembering to take at least 90 seconds on the DVICs is just wasting more of our time.

That's right, I do mostly nothing. Ask me anything.

Pros: You can keep the can Ice Fucking Cold.

Cons: Can't access the cargo from the front.

Doesn't matter to me. I'm on light duty and just sweeping 😂

Had them for the first time last week in AZ. First day I didn’t love it bc I was sorting on the top shelf. Second day folded that up and you can just dump the bag out on the shelf 10/10 it was one of the most enjoyable days I’ve had yet.

Hi guys , I got an offer to do dispatch once a week for now besides my regular routes . I’m taking it no matter what for the experience , but money wise wasn’t there a 1 dollar raise before to do dispatch . I came back one month ago after 3 months out of the business . My total time working in DSP is 9 months without counting the 3 months gap that I was out .

My regular pay rate is 24.75 /h. For dispatch , the manager told me there is a 25 $ bonus for the day in the desk if scorecard in every driver in the day are clean ., no violations . Which would push my pay rate to almost 27 in that day in other words but just “if”. So no more 1 $ secure dollar raise like before anymore?
After that dollar raise from Amazon , no more from dispatch?

Teamsters has been forming a movement, not many drivers dedicated on joining yet but what are the chances

Nah jk this is hilarious tbh😭

i just got a job offer for doing deliveries, but i don’t know if i should abandon my new job. any thoughts or tricks might be appreciated.

When I finish. Usually when early. My DSP will offer me some extra work so I happily accept. They just tell me to take atleast one tote. More if I want.

From my understanding, they send me to the “slower drivers” even if they’re not struggling. Sometimes they say “I didn’t request a rescue”.

Does your DSP tell you how much to take from the other driver?

Starting training at a farther DSP this Monday so I can earn while I wait. Closer DSP should be ready in about 2 weeks (background/drug test still processing). Only plan to work the first one for 1–2 weeks max then switch.

Will I get disqualified from the closer DSP if I start at the further one? Will they see that I already started with the first one? Any issues with short stints or offboarding after only a couple weeks?

Thanks.

Just had to share this one lol

I just don't understand it, apartment buildings are the absolute worst. Do all of you actually go door to door with packages and not leave them in the mailroom like every other courier??

With buildings that don't even have Amazon key, waiting to get buzzed in, bring overflow up and down... surely there has to be a way to leave everything in the mailroom without a massive scorecard hit right?

It is my third to last day, last day is Sunday.

I get my route, 147, cool. In an area I’m somewhat familiar with, cool. Finally do my DVIC and SEE the actual route … 20 bags, only 21 OV … 147 was really 240 with all the dang multi stops! I HATE apartments, especially 4 story ones with no elevator. First apartment complex, not terrible, just a few up on the second floor. Second apartment complex I had to edit the stops because I would’ve drove around that sucker 20 times which changed my stop count to 159. Third complex, grouped fine but omg 4 dang stories and everyone is on the 3rd or 4th floor. It was 12 buildings and 4-5 stops each … first stop was 1pm, last stop was 845pm. I was dying by the end those last apartments and still had 26 stops left. Thank god it was dark and cooler otherwise ain’t no way. Idk how yall do it, I’ve been doing this for 4 months and still can’t stand apartments like that.

People on the 3rd+ floor with no elevator should have to pick it up at the bottom of the stairs or front office because that’s BS.

So.. I applied for one of the couple DSP companies through my amazon. I feel like the interview went really well back on Monday. I reached out and i was denied. Is there anyway i could better my interview? I have a completely clean driving record and have experience driving vans..

just curious why need to finish early when get paid hourly?

i want my hours to be at least 8 hrs a day since my schedule is “4 days that say edv 10 hrs standard”

i just started and have been on my own for 2 days. and i have been back by 7:20pm latest (with taking the 2 paid 15 mins breaks and 30 mins lunch)

You customers sit on your behinds and click, click, click all day and night and then are rude as absolute hell, the majority of people legitimately look at us like we’re subhuman, but they could and would never work this job. Emphasis on would never. It’s almost as if there’s some pretentious air about the fact that you have a degree and I don’t, you get to utilize my services and treat me like absolute shit? It’s bizarre. So much hate in the world, and I deliver in some very wealthy neighborhoods.

Not trying to throw rocks from a glass house, but why are these old rich people so god damn miserable?

Happy Halloween!

This has to be a universal phenomenon… I just had two apartments back to back 22stops (plus multi) so around 30ish+ units, and they were ALL upstairs !!! Like wtf not one was the first level. Are people who live upstairs just physically obligated to never leave their apartments?! This is obviously just a rant post, and if you don’t agree with me that’s okay, but it just feels like this is the case everytime. I felt like I was going crazy

My first solo day is coming up, the 2 days I had with the trainers were rough. They were constantly rushing me and I was pretty much jogging at every stop. My body was destroyed after both days so I don’t really plan on doing all that when I’m on my own. Would it be fine if I just took my time? I’m thinking I should try to do around 20 stops an hour but idk. I also feel like finishing fast just means you have to rescue someone, but I also don’t wanna have to be rescued. I’ll take all the advice I can get.

I mean Jesus at this point I might as well put it at the front door. I’m basically there.

I wanna add that I backed up this far. So at the end when the video was looking forward, that’s how far from the road their box is
