UPDATE*** With my new DSP, the routes are 10 hour routes. I usually always hit 40 hours working 4 days here. There are very few rescues/sweepers here so everyone is doing a full route (the dsp I'm talking about above had people who took of your work). The new DSP pays every 2 weeks and I get around 80 hours totaling 1,500~. Just wanted to let you know because I realize every DSP has different structures. Also note you can get paid time off. I believe it's like every 25 hours (not sure) you work, you get an hour of paid time off. Best of Luck Everyone!

Getting your CDL is a great option. There are so many driver jobs out there to choose from based on how much you want to work, the type of work, pay, time off, etc. Can make $60-70k with half the year off or $130k if you want to work all the time. Very flexible industry and you can always change jobs/careers at the drop of a hat. Had my CDL for 4 years now, first year training I made like $65k but every year after that 100k+. If you go OTR (over the road) and live out of your truck so you save on rent and bills you can literally stack almost $100k a year in savings. Do that for a bit and then have freedom.

I make 100k/yr working 70 hours a week (OTR) with maybe three days off a month. I don’t rent anywhere and just grab an AirBNB when I’m off and it’s still not worth it.

You can even make that much local if you get a job that can offer overtime but it depends on location and typically the new guys get the crappy shifts. Have to admit it’s nice to be able to do whatever. Can do 6 months of flatbed, then swap to 6 months reefer, then dryvan, etc. Never stuck doing the same thing if you don’t want to which I like. After doing dry bulk local for a year I didn’t renew my lease and am back OTR dry van with no bills again. Probably won’t go local again unless I buy my own place.

Very helpful to me as I am applying to Amazon DSP in Edmonton Alberta. I am a student as well and was wondering if they’d be ok with me working on every day but wed and fri as I have class in the morning. I also have an evening class on Tuesday so as long as I finish before 6 that day I should be fine. Even then my class is like for an hour or two so working on those 2 days is not out of the question, but my preferred would probably be 4 days a week.

People forget about taxes. If they start you at a wage, money gets deducted and goes to the hand of the taxman. So expect your actual payout to be less than the wage you signed on for, unless you choose to pay your taxes at the end of the taxable year.

Thanks for sharing. Did you think that you soaked enough information the first day of training for you to be alone the next day???? If not what obstacles did you face and how did you overcome them?

for me it was enough maybe because I had previous experience with FedEx. If anything I would just call my dispatcher for questions

It’s time for you to move up to CDL driver, I started off as an Amazon driver then box truck driver then to CDL driver!

I was looking for something like this. How did you do that because that is exactly my plan?

Hi! Your video helped me very much to imagine how would be like thanks! I went to an interview for amazon driver and the interviewer said they will call you today if your hired but if not it means it wasn’t. I didn’t receive the call but, should I apply again in another day??

Yes apply every 2 weeks they will hire you eventually

I'm on day 1 of training how do I switch to a different dsp that pays route time vs hourly?

Dude in CT they got us working 10-12 hr a day , with over 255-339 stops sucks

How are rescues mandatory without pay? that would be illegal right? If a rescue say takes me over my schedaled hours for that day shouldnt i be getting paid overtime etc?

get a skill trade work, eletrical,hvac heating/ ac.. they always hiring and paying well after experienced

They gave me 8 hours at my DSP if you finished early back in September when I got hired. They took it away at the beginning of the year tho..So now everybody just stalls for time lol.. For peak we got like 250 so yeah sucks if you didn’t get tht

I did Amazon delivery December here In Connecticut a customer gave me a like 2 gram nug Christmas Eve haha. Sooo when my Xbox was delivered few weeks ago I gave the driver some loud. Do you smoke? Yes? Here take it

Currently, I work in Florida in 100 degree weather with my medical card/Step van driver and they only pay me 18.50$ an hour

I have had two separate incidents where Amazon drivers placed an empty package or an empty box on my front porch

You can make a lot more being Amazon Warehouse associate, especially with benefits and overtime.

Not true. I worked in the warehouse for 6 months. A week or two after my 6 month mark (6 month is the quickest) i got a call. Granted this was in the pandemic. They were hiring quick and alot. But it may slowly go back to a few year wait as we exit the pandemic and sail into this looming recession

What if you work 30 hours a week (10 hours for 3 days a week) as an Amazon DSP driver, how much would I make? Because tomorrow I get my first paycheck and I’ve only worked there for 3 days.

I am Amazon driver in New Jersey. Myself in Gloucester county area with my dispatch All X and they started me at $20.75 and I've been here about 2 and 1/2 months. It's not what I expected but a job as a job.... It's definitely not a career. Something short-term

Casino work is the best job. You can either be a dealer bartender slot tech and they always promote from within. Never rains on. You never snows on you and it's great pay

Amazon flex sounds way better. Only caveat is using your own car. I make 600-650 a week easy. Make up the rest of what I want with Uber eats. Make around 750 a week. I can make more just depends on how much you want to hustle. Gas also sucks but you can actually make decent money from it.

It's a 1925 in Pennsylvania and US delivery station warehouse workers get 20.25 fuck driving

I always gave good ratings for my good delivery guys, so they would get raises and stay.

I did Amazon for 3 years and hate it, no future. Loving my new job….USPS. IMO a tempt job vs a career.

I used to be a driver in NY specifically Long Island and cargo van drivers made $17 and then step van driver made $18-$20 an hour

@@iimasheriiol222 I went in with 0 experience. Just need a license and know how to drive

been working as a dsp driver for 4 months now and can tell the job isnt for everyone.. since you scheduled for 4 days you cannot get overtime and if you happen to get 1-3 hour overtime then they tell you rather harshly that you slacking tho i would only take 1 15min break a day (instead of 2/15 and 1 30min allowed) in 4 months i seen about 50% turnaround in drivers. step vans do pay more(in our dsp its 75 cents more) but they are alot harder to maneuver so i would just stick with smaller van. Bathrooms are NOT readily available and you can be in an area with absolutely no access to one.. all in, i am looking for something different

Would you consider becoming a truck driver for Amazon? I'm considering it.

Need the name of that pay calculator app bro. Great channel 👍

Even though its not much that's good earnings for a amazon drive like you

I'm an Amazon delivery driver in California Long Beach I make 20 an hour I've been there three I have one question how long are you planning to stay?

Thanks for the advice!! I have an interview scheduled soon to become a delivery driver. Now that I'm 21 years old I can do it. That's the minimum age to become a delivery driver for Amazon probably because of liability concerns. The peak season is quickly approaching so hopefully I'll have many opportunities to work overtime. I was a seasonal driver helper last year for UPS and I liked it a lot but it was part time, meaning they didn't want you going over 40 hours in a week.

Man that’s insane!!! Literally painted a townhouse and made $2,353 in just 11 hours without losing my head.

What about shift times ? Would they let you pick your shift ? I wanna work like a 5am to 1pm

Can you work part time i understand Amazon allows you to work 4 days including 1 weekend day could you work 2-3x a week instead of the full 4?

Dylan! yeah it can be chill sometimes

In dsp would make most drivers work 6 days for 9-10 hours and during peak season 7 days 10-11 hours

My son went last Tuesday to 10 falls in New Jersey and he's waiting for them to send him the background check and the driver's license he didn't send it to him yet so when they told him he had to do a 4 day week either Monday through Thursday Thursday through Sunday or Friday through Monday and it's a 10-hour day so is he actually going to be working 10 hours or he's only going to be working a few hours when he first starts in a storm in with 20-25

check your local colleges for 2 year paid internships. there are tons available even to some smaller towns. you usually work part-time on weekends while getting an education. from my experience, the starting pay is usually anywhere from $20-25/hr minimum and after completing the 2 year paid internship can increase up to 6 figures depending on the field.

This isn't the 80's anymore college has become obsolete. COUNTLESS people who are dropouts who are making 7 figures a year that prove this. Its really not that hard, people just making up excuses and are lazy. Most people lack self drive and self discipline and have horrible work ethic. Everyone wants to become rich and famous overnight. They want results NOW not in 2 years..... 🥴🤷‍♂

Not everyone wants that kind of life. Some people prefer to put a couple years in college and live a simple life in a career they have a passion. Not everyone wants to grind everyday to make money. Plenty of us out here are more focused on passion; the money is just a nice bonus. There is no one size fits all and I definitely believe college is still viable for many so long as they aren't seeking ONLY money. @@EliteOnTheBeat

Didn’t realize you guys got money for thank my driver. Sucks it wasn’t what it was said to be

How much taxes you get taking out every week? better than being a uber driver?

your pay is not bad you are getting about $60 more than me as a Lead at WAWA after tax.

Luckily for the DSP I work with, if you do 3 rescues within the pay period, all your hourly pay increases by .75 cents for that pay period.
