Victorville Does anyone here work at the Amazon Warehouse in Victorville (DFX4) -Not as a driver?
As a flex driver, I have a few questions about the how's and why's how things work over there.
Example: I used to deliver a few years ago, and the carts given to flex drivers were totally random. If you had a 4hr route, you got a 4hr cart.
However, since I've been delivering again the last few months, I've noticed that the workers are grouping carts by pickup time (eg 6:30am; 6:45am; 7:00am etc..) and they absolutely WILL NOT allow you to take a cart from a group that isn't your pickup time, even if it's for the same amount of hours.
I also (think I) noticed that the groups of carts are for different areas of the desert (eg one time I walked up and peaked at another time and noticed all the carts in that group/time were going to phelan, oak hills etc..)
So one of the questions I have is why do they separate the carts into these groups now?
