What Happens When Drivers Can't Finish Their Route in Time? 

Can’t u just tell the dispatcher u don’t wanna do it

@@crazygamingyt7245Ya might make the dispatcher like ya less but oh well.

@@crazygamingyt7245 I dont work for amazon or even live in the usa. We do things a bit different

@@Donari I don’t even live ina country that has Amazon bro

@@lights_utopia1130 so? Doesn’t the dispatcher jsut check on u, who cares if he likes u lesss

anything for my subscribers

😂😂😂

I cant almost sleep until alarm how I am stressed by this work, but than I arrived home and I am caught watching Chriss videos. Whats wrong with me 😂

Because we’re the adult equivalent of those kids nowadays who watch other kids play with toys on RU-vid!

Sign of autism spectrum

Me to be bruh😭😭😭😭

every driver for themselves.

Same with mine. Some are part-time, some full-time. So if someone who's full time is running super late, they'll send a rescue, usually from someone who is part-time, or vise-versa if you're full time and finish early, they'll send you to rescue. It's all mandatory. But if you have to rescue a certain amount of times/week, they pay per stop. So it kind of evens out the pros/cons. One DSP in my warehouse pays auto OT pay for rescues.

my dsp are cheapos

here in austria in my dsp it was mandatory and i had 55-60 hours a week because of the rescues .. xd

Dark syde phils?

we got unlucky with mine. No guaranteed hours and mandatory rescues

Yes. People with no route and purely do rescues are known as sweepers!

thas a way better !

Same about 1-2 sweepers per shift non-winter months, more in winter

Lies 😂 you can't tell me that without showing facts especially when There's traffic

@@esaumesinas310 no lies, we are mostly doing calm villages where literally everyone allows us to deliver at the frontdoor / garage. If you deliver in Cities, you usually get 120-140

Man you ain’t lying that’s the way to do it then they get mad you got finished so early and won’t let you go home

Run.

Yeah why do more work and not get paid much for it, I’m all for working the overtime and extra shifts IF YOU want to and IF YOU agree but if you’re not wanting to and they’re not paying well for it then take ya damn time bro

People working from morning to evenings untill 8 for a shit pay is not worth it. I feel bad for delivery drivers working like crazy

I'll have some mercy for the new drivers

Yo no lie, one time my dispatcher told me to take 15 stops from a guy, he only had 15 left 😒😂 I only took half and kept it moving

@@ibnshabazz3989something similar happened to me ,called them back and they told me come back

So true they even have better benefits i think

True but hard to get a delivery job there, you have to work at least 2 years in the warehouse.

shit, try being an Autozone Hub Delivery driver.. worst underpaid ever

What is the best way to apply to be a DSP driver is there a certain website we can go to apply for a position? I also have a Motorola phone I call it karate chop

@@z0mbyd0nkyjust apply on indeed they post Amazon jobs every day

I had to do 53 group stops at 6 apartment complexes. I dunno how those people with those routes do that. Neighborhoods are my strong suit cuz they’re all just down the street. Country routes, I’ve come to hate them cuz it’s like 2 or 3 miles between each stop and I don’t feel as productive, add the fact that sometimes I have a cargo van with not so good AC

same. always try to finish before

My DSP is the last one to leave our warehouse in Carle Place NY (Long Island). In the winter months that’s a nightmare because I was delivering in the dark for hours and hours every day. I usually don’t finish my routes before 7:00 PM. Our late start time is also bad if you have a lot of businesses on your route.

You are a good soul

I was thinking that too. I got mine at the dollar tree

Get two rechargeable the same, I like the “180 degree” ones for steps and uneven ground work. One in use, one on the charger in case. Good luck

Don’t XL pay more ? Or did you leave because of the overweight boxes and killed your back

@@Qnz_Hectic the pay was around the same taking 50 cent pay cut to save my back lol

I feel like Amazon XL is better?

@@LaosHouse I heard it isn't but I could be wrong.

@@LaosHouse less stops but more driving and packages that are 100lbs+. Then sometimes you get a lazy helper or helper that can’t even lift the packages lol. If I’m gonna do 10 hrs either way I’d rather save my back lol

I feel you man

hope your day went well Scott!

yeah we're second to last to loadout 😭. A DSP is moving so we're fighting for their loudout spot rn

My Dsp is the last to load up 😭 we load up at like 11:30 and I’m not at my first stop till about 12 12:15, and having 150+ stops is just so annoying, I’d be much happier if we loaded up a lot earlier

⁠@@stevensinclair3037 My DSP is also the last one to load. But my DSP does pay for rescues (one dollar per stop). There’s positives and negatives to my DSP like there is with everything in life. I usually clock out between 7:30 PM and 9:00 PM. I’ve only been rescued once because I had a bunch of deliveries to a psychiatric center and I had a hard time finding all the buildings because I wasn’t familiar with the campus. After a couple weeks I got much better at it. Sometimes my dispatchers send me a sweeper to take some packages from me and sometimes they don’t. I’m always appreciative when they do send me help. On a lot of days it’s very necessary. I usually get over 300 packages a day.

Smart

thanks chirat

😆

Easily, but the stops are probably bunched up and like 1 package per house.

Remember 1 stop can be 2-4 houses

It’s possible to have 200 stops in a step van. Rare but possible.

FedEx doing 300 stops in these things but bigger. Them knees gonna be wrecked in a few years

gotta be fresh

It's mostly walking... you don't need work boots to walk, boomer.

@@dakota9821 I'm 23 lol

how’s it going ?

Also curious how’s it going…?

@@jesterfrx1682 surprised people actually wanna know, so I’ll say The job is interesting to say the least. I’m on my 3rd week delivering now, and it’s weird. I enjoy the job, but it can be tough going into work sometimes. The start of the day can be a bit overwhelming with a van filled with totes and oversized packages, but by the end of the day when you’re done and driving back to RTS (return to station), it’s a great feeling. Right now I drive a Mercedes sprinter van and deliver from 100-160 stops, 150-250 packages a day. The best route I got was in a gated community, the second best was a residential neighborhood but in a low-income neighborhood (it’s a bit harder than gated communities), and the worst route I got was in a rural country area with long distances between stops and run-down roads. As for the job incentives, my DSP doesn’t really incentivize that much to work faster, which sucks. You do get paid $1 per stop if you rescue someone, but there’s been days I worked as hard and fast as I could to finish early so I could get rescued and got sent home early. I realize I could’ve just took my 2 optional 15 minute breaks instead of skipping them and worked a bit slower to make more $ that day. So now I just work at an average pace because you don’t really make more $ by working faster, even with rescue incentives. I don’t plan on doing this long-term, otherwise I’d try to get hired by UPS/Fed Ex, just doing this to make some $ to pay for another semester. Not sure how/why anyone would do this job long-term. It’s long hours, physical days in hot weather and rain, dealing with traffic and dogs. I make $18.50 an hour in SW Florida, but even though I complain, I’d rather do this job than work indoors all day for $13-15 an hour. It’s nice to constantly be on the move and work by yourself. Sorry for the long comment but yeah, that’s my rant. If you have any questions or anything I’d be happy to answer.

happens pretty often 😂

Especially around nicely decorated houses too.

Yeah bro , idk why , but I feel more energetic at night time

It’s fine in town, but sucks in super rural areas.

i would not wanna do this near detroit where i live lol

@@ralkiaas an amazon driver who has delivered in detroit, people left me alone and the houses are at least close together so it wasn’t that bad

lol. Hey man just gotta do what's best for you! best of luck!

@@LaosHouse thanks!

lets go!

part of the driving job is seeing/going places you ever would have gone before

I know how to prevent this happening. There’s this thing called a speed limit, and you stay under it.

We've come a long way

Thanks Dylan!

Fckin deer 🦌 GET OUTTA HERE 🤬

Which one you suggest?

Oh, and after I healed and came back he tried to make my life miserable, not giving me routes, and saying I was not able to drive after giving a perfect full week of driving. To heck with this. 😢

Same, i made it where im now just a sweeper.Plus when they call me on my days off i told them only if im sweeping and no routes.They agreed.
