RANT Imma crash out

Upvotes

I know everyone is with me on this, but the heat breaks are fucking stupid. Anyone that has gone through the 4 seasons with this job is more than prepared for the heat and are able to finish their route on their own without needing more than the lunch break. I do take my breaks, but most days I just take the lunch break. Its more annoying when im trying to get off early and I have 3 fucking heat breaks lined up during the day and I have to waste 30 minutes out if my day just cause amazon wants to look out for us.

Reporting driver for throwing package?

Upvotes

Ordered some cookies and snacks off amazon. Driver threw the packages onto my porch and I was woken up by a loud bang of the items hitting the floor outside front door. Packages scattered around in the delivery photo looking like they did exactly that with no care.

Opened packages and most of the snacks are destroyed and disoriented in the packaging. Not a huge deal because they're just snacks, but I'm worried if I decide to purchase something fragile and expensive, the delivery driver would treat those purchases the same way risking damage.

I thumbs downed the delivery photo and put "driver threw package" but not sure if that really does anything.

*Thanks to everyone who offered helpful advice. I've reported the issue to Amazon directly. I'm going to leave this thread up for anyone else who might find it useful, but I won't be engaging further. Take care.

If they want to play we can play. I’ve done nothing wrong to these people and they’ve done nothing but do me dirty. I’m not saying DSPs are bad just make sure u choose the right place that actually cares about u atleast a little. Yes I know I could’ve waited and not said anything and maybe been paid more but that’s not the point. They have 0 respect for others timing but when it comes to being late for work they’ll easily write you up. It’s apparently just business not personal but they forget two can play that card. So far they’ve legally passed one day of giving me my final check so they owe me a day of pay according to California law. Let’s see how long it takes the warning has been sent😂

Route reductions

8 Upvotes

It’s a load of shit right? Every shift it says my route has been reduced due to the heat, but the package count and stops aren’t actually going down

I’ve never had a job that felt like it was taking joy in kicking me in the dick every day. Until this one.

Employer skimping checks

3 Upvotes

My most recent pay was deducted 600 and added back 510 with a total loss of $90 for “insurance”

the hr claims this is for Amaze and another third party insurance broker. I have had no insurance card or indication that this would have me opted into.

Any body else share similar experience??

I also understand the tactic they share to “raise my pay check amount” by creating less taxable income. but frankly i would rather uncle sam have my money than a random third party i gain zero from.

#1 preformer on week 28 on standby

5 Upvotes

I was put on stand by for my Monday even though I was #1 top performer for week 28. They simply said they didnt have enough routes.

They usually put 3 - 5 other people on stand by but its usually because we preformed bad the day before or had violations. They sent other stand by home asap.

Is this a seniority issue? Iv been working for this dsp about a mouth. I helped loads vans they could of easly split someone's route. Anyone else have this problem?

Can we have a conversation at savings and 401k

8 Upvotes

I have seen some paystubs on here and they aren’t maximizing their benefits.
What % are you guys contributing to your 401k ?
Is it traditional or Roth ?
Which investment did you pick ?
Do you know when your full balance is vested ?

If there are any other questions you can think of please add them

When to workout

0 Upvotes

Hello! I just started as an Amazon DP. I am trying to figure out when is the best time to lift either before or after. I have time to go before but it would 100% effect my route, or I could go after but work would 100% effect my workout. Which one do you guys prefer?

"I used to rescue you all the time when you were new"

29 Upvotes

Has anyone heard this a few times and been confused?

Like yeah bro, back when I was newer there were several people on standby without routes every day and you were one of them you came to me early as a sweeper because I had one of the larger package counts at my DSP every day.

I don't remember anyone rescuing me "all the time" except when a rescue driver gave me a legitimate rescue one day and then the very next day I was rescuing and took over a route and got rescued by him after he finished his route lol

I swear when I started I was a maniac and now I'm much slower so idk I guess you just have to be a veteran and pay your dues to get any respect but this job is pretty repetitive anyone can be good relatively quickly in my opinion.

I deliver to a resort hotel and I deliver to the dock that happens to be right next to the kitchen and employee lunch room. The hotel provides breakfast and lunch to their employees, seeing as there is always an abundance of food, the chef encourages me to take food every time I stop by. It would be a waste to I just throw it out.
