I put up with Amazon for 3 years, I quit right before the Prime sale like two weeks ago. I've watched the stops, the packages, and the group stops get worse and worse. Amazon's algorithm will always push you harder than it should. If it learns you can do 20 stops in a half hour, the next day it will expect you to deliver 30 stops in a half hour. Never again will I work for Amazon! UPS pays way more and has way better benefits

I have special instructions on where to leave the packages. Which is just to the right of my door. That way I can get it into the house while still staying inside. Far and away, the Amazon drivers leave the packages right there. I do my best to select my weekly delivery date, to minimize the number of times you folks have to show up at my place. And during crazy times, like Prime Day and Black Fridays, I try to push out the delivery date, unless I really need the item. Hoping that will help you guys to not be so buried. Thanks for all you do.

You don't have commercial accounts with AutoZone or similar parts stores? Or is their discount not good enough? I also compare with eBay for car parts and usually the same sellers are also on that platform

On one hand it's neat that Amazon's trying to do delivery themselves, because other postal services are not exactly ideal either and they're also overworked during holiday seasons, but Prime Day rush really is mental. Here in my country we don't have Amazon DSPs, it's all just DHL and evening couriers, so it's incredibly hit & miss in terms of quality. But we get the same drivers most of the time, so we usually buy them a box of chocolates or something around the holidays as a thank you.

Chris can you talk more about parking. Today was my first day I didn't have a trainer. I've never delivered before. Where is the best parking at apartments, businesses? Do you take apartment spot. I've seen some just blocking the cars, but what if the delivery takes a while

My first holiday prime week almost broke me, I almost quit but thankfully I toughed it out now week 2

My prime day was 20 stops 230ish packages all luxury high rises with 8 of them being door to door and the rest were mailrooms. Did 2 rescues for bonus and got back around 6:45 supervisor let me chill in van until 7:15 before clock out. Great time

Holy shit, I wish I had a route like that. All my stops are 10 mins apart, super long dirt driveways, everyone has dogs unleashed on the property, and most of them are off 50MPH roads, so if you can't turn around in their driveway it's a pain. Sometimes I'll get a route in the city, and 180 stops can easily be done in 6 hours, but on my usual route 180 stops is easily 11+ hours.

hello fellow Amazonian

Started working for a dsp ab a month ago. Definitely not a job for the faint of heart. The heat got to me at first but luckily it cooled down the last few days. We’ll see how long it takes before they break me lol

No fault if you take advantage of the discount prices... I usually go with eBay when comparison shopping and not in a rush for fast shipping

no worries. The deals are too good to pass up. The people that order something every day though 👀

@@LaosHousefacts man , I like to think they find it so fascinating that as soon as I ring the bell , they go straight to their phones

It will get better since so many people quite their prime accounts and order way less. I was a prime user for 10 years or so. But since video now has ads, music is basically unusable and even alexa‘s getting worth every month, the last price increase tipped me over and i stopped. Amazon is full of cheap crap with faked and/or tampered ratings, it’s more of an aliexpress these days. I‘m still using amazon, but far less - i did it for a month now, and I don’t really miss much…

I just noticed Amazon has ads last weekend. They automatically charge me a yearly subscription for prime for the last 10 years and I don’t even know what that benefit entails. I will look into it and cancel

dude we have waited for long

I've been on the same route since last Thanksgiving 😢

And that's better than going to different neighborhoods on a daily basis. You get to gain area knowledge like a regular route driver for UPS or FedEx... Knowing which homes have bad dogs, and where are the recipient for businesses

Delivering in rich areas is cool. It's just sometimes their houses are so big.

Dude, don't know how you do it. Just finished my 4th week. I delivered 130 stops, kind of spread out, was supposed to be 150 but got rescued, 2 totes. Took me from 10:45 to 7:30. Was a super long day and I don't even know who I could come close to what you are doing. I'm almost 50 but still. Thx.

Organization is key . The more your organized the faster you can be

What is with it when I try shopping on Amazon? It's like a therapy session I did not ask for. No wonder they have a high turn over rate for employees...let alone customers. Hell even if it were the clinic I went to a while back secretly doing so...doubt they'd ever admit to doing it.

The most I had for prime week was 200 stops, 25 totes with 355 packages

200 stops is not fun

Hey my friend can you explain me how do you work with the breaks times and the lunch time? I mean at what times do you take the two breaks and the lunch ?

I was waiting for your second prime day video. I felt like the second prime day was as bad as the July prime day.

I would say they're about the same. It wasn't as hot so that's a plus.

I love Winnie! She looked like she felt bad when you told her about another Prime Day……

My boss said we're getting more routes the end of the month and the EV vans. I also put extremely difficult if it's a route I hate 😂

Ya this is why I quit, plus I got attacked by like 5 dogs and they kept giving me the same houses so I just said fuck it. Now I pickup biohazard waste with like 10 stops now and get paid better

6:00 - you won't enjoy that, watching this video and seeing how easy (short and good visibility) these addresses are you're delivering to now is a drastic difference from rural stops where you're driving a quarter of a mile down a driveway, discover there's not really a good turnaround, tons of no tresspassing signs, angry dogs and angry men with guns, lol.

Never working at delivery station again the check was good but not for the work I was doing especially during peak when there was no peak it was good

My record for parcels on a sunday with usps was 407.. 7am - 7pm .. quit to become a plumber
