I guess it is good that if you get in an accident they can prove it isn’t your fault, but I don’t think monitoring the cab is necessary.

Excellent video. I drive for FedEx Express and share many of these experiences and concerns. We have a little less intense time pressure and monitoring. We are also FedEx employees. My only advice is to always pack your lunch and keep it light - simple protein drinks (watch for sugar levels), bananas, protein bars, plenty of cold water. This way you spend all 30 minutes for your break. And know where the best bathrooms are to refresh (office lobbies, restaurants etc.). Great footwear and socks, and a good rechargeable LED flashlight are essential. Good luck Shaleen the Queen - I already know you are a great driver!

I currently am a DSP driver for Amazon and although these are true I don’t think it is hard at all. I guess it really does depend on the DSP you work for mine is very chill and as long as you follow the rules it is not hard at all just not meant for certain people. I don’t take my 15 min breaks I use them to drive to where I want to take my lunches. Just stay organized and have water and you’ll be alright!

[@fatbroccoli8]

Yeah it's easy, the only stuff that's hard is if you have to deliver to an area that's a pain in the ass, like downtown LA like I used to, also there's quite a few Karen's around these days which are annoying sometimes but if you don't go slow and follow driving rules then it's easy and your DSP/Amazon won't really care what you do as long as you get the work done... she makes it sound way worse than it is imo

[@brandonamthor]

Wait so I should take the 15 minute break right before the 30 minute? So basically just 2 breaks back to back? They don't care if you do that? Cause that's a super good idea in my opinion

[@Sr_iRL]

@@brandonamthor I agree with Fat Broccoli. It’s an easy job, until you get to those really condensed places like in LA. In the video she makes it seem like it’s very physical but in my opinion it isn’t, the van carries everything, the phone takes all the work, all you have to do is drive and get the package from the van walk about 15 feet and drop off the package. She also makes it seem like driving is a pain, just follow the rules/laws and you won’t have an issue. Now regarding the breaks, my DSP specifically has told us that we are not allowed to take out breaks and lunches at the same time

[@x00zysagex]

I work at an amazon dsp facility as a warehouse worker. Induction, stow, all that good stuff. When the vans are being loaded we are all there to help if needed. Drivers normally are loaded in and then out of the building within 15 mins so it's hardly a hard job at all. When you get down to the brass tax. There isn't a job at Amazon that is hard. Load out is way less hassle than she makes it out to be. You aren't scanning in each of those 2-300 packages. You are scanning a bag that contains them.

[@hersheywarren8018]

Definitely depends. When I was in Ohio I was never forced to do a rescue but when I came back to baltimore BABY these DSP here are lazy. I hate rescues. In Ohio the managers or leads would run out and do the rescues. Now I finished early a lot so then I would definitely help them with a rescue because they were dope.

[@lovingkingjesus4822]

I love all the information you gave on becoming an Amazon Driver/ Delivery person! Just a word of advice when you're working on a time frame. Pray. Take your time but don't waste time. Keep moving as much as you can with what you're familiar with and slow down a bit for anything new to learn. Use a foldable wagon or cart to deliver faster. Would be nice if whoever you're working for could contact the customer in advance at least by text, so they'll know you're coming. A physical job like yours is a blessing too as long as know how to pick up and lower packages without hurting your back .

One of the worst spots to be in starting a route is not having any idea where or why your loader loaded packages where he did. I worked for UPS for 10 years drove for 5 and my worst days by far it's by far we're having a loader in the morning not caring or knowing how to load the truck. That huge pain can also be a blessing when you're out there on the road. I'm thinking about starting delivery for Amazon at the moment I deliver For spark out of my car. Thank you for your videos and we'll see how my over the phone interview goes today. I can't see me working for Amazon for a long period of time though I am not naive in the sense that there are one of the most evil corporations that this planet has ever seen I'm sure the neocons and global us are good friends with the company That is helping keep people inside and construct a new way of living through their eyes. I know feel sick to my stomach thinking about working for Amazon. I don't judge anybody but myself and I can't feel good about myself for expending period of time working for a group of rich that hate humanity and there part in capturing it.

I tried Amazon flex and it was horrible compared to food delivery apps. They give you like 40 different packages and you need to load and scan them in your car. When you reach a stop its usually a maze like apartment with no parking. You need to press all kinds of codes to get in and walk around the apartment complex looking for the apt #. The packages aren't organized you just have to dig through the 40 packages they give you. When theres no parking you need to park far away back and forth just to drop off 1 package. My shift was 5-8 but I didn't finish till 11pm because of all the walking. I've never worked so hard for $80. Was a horrible experience I'm pretty traumatized by it. 😖😖😖

I worked for Amazon in Vegas in 100+ weather which was not a fun experience and this is a physical job! My advice to anyone working this job is to tell you this isn’t really a long term job. But what made it easier was to really organize your packages from numerical order and know how to plan your itinerary throughout the day. Our routes were infested with business stops and some business closed earlier than others and were set to be delivered towards the end of the itinerary when it should be delivered first. Where I delivered the routes were not perfect and all over the place so my biggest advice is to know how organize your van and know your route. I don’t work there no more so good luck to everyone who does! Everyone drive safe and stay hydrated!

Have only just the last couple of weeks started to complete them in the time given without working too late or needing a rescue (been rescued 3 or 4 times in total for about 10-20 stops each time).

Worked for a logistics amazon company and they expect you to be flash when delivering these packages. If you take the breaks, you’re done for, you’ll be behind. If you deliver “door to door “ like your “supposed to” you’ll get behind. Or even take the time to call customers that have no secure place to deliver packages. You’re behind. This is why so many drivers don’t deliver “correctly “ if you take the time to deliver correctly you’ll be behind. Another thing, no warning what so ever. If you’re not up to their par, you’re fired. As they like to call it “let go”. Not salty, but this is also some things i wish i knew before trying to deliver door to door and also taking pics of the packages like you’re “supposed” to do, for amazon. This will help someone

I worked here for 9 months. I left because I was fatigued after those months. Plus I was burnt out and unhappy with my supervisors and their fibs about future pay. Plus no one cleaned up after themselves. In the beginning I was fast and learned a lot about how to manage my day well. Over time, however, I kept getting rescued more and more by my fellow drivers. They kept saying I was doing better than a lot of folks, but I sure didn’t feel like it. I eventually put in my two weeks and my supervisors, upon hearing, said “Oh that’s too bad. You were one of our best ones” (again, I sure didn’t feel like it). Good news is that they said I have an open seat if I ever decided to return, but….. I really don’t want to. So I’m done. This is hard work for such little pay (in my area… though I heard they bumped it up after I left 🤦‍♂️. It’s okay. New experiences await).

[@-SLEAZY-]

Its a big company and everyone replaceable that’s why. I’m sure you were a good worker tho it’s usually stuff like this goes unnoticed esp a job like Amazon a ton of people feel the way you do. I did when I worked the Amazon warehouses. But I start my DSP Amazon job soon I hope I don’t feel this way you feel after time goes on but it’s inevitable because that’s how I always feel in the end. For example my dish washer job you get to do so fking much and you feel under appreciated.

[@-SLEAZY-]

Also this might have to be a think about how you grew up cuz with my and my parents NOTHING is ever enough cuz I never became a damn doctor or went to a university college. Being an Asian American with immigrant parents it’s always a feeling of guilt like this. But as time went on it’s about your happiness FIRST then others. I hope you see life in a better way soon!

Lmfaoo you’re a genius!! I should have did that🤣 fuckers had me on satans route for like 2 weeks!

[@Tyweezy84]

Genius 😂😂😂

[@mkloven101]

Time is definitely off the essence, unfortunately my route is always so heavy that i really can’t afford to take my 2 15 min breaks. Since i almost always run a business route, i have to be on time or even early to these places.

Cement truck drivers have cameras in cab that monitor their eyes and alerts the manager if they're looking down too much

[@coquettemusic6610]

Lol seriously??

[@Ktwice221]

Tbh driving vehicles that big or containing certain things they should be watched. Too many people get lax and start to speed or use their phones. Nobody has time for that from drivers who are supposed to be driving responsibly.

Most times I don't take my breaks. The only reason I take a lunch is because the Amazon flex app locks me out.

[@christopherjameswright9614]

Wow I wish mines did that you lucky fam lol

[@mikedelgado4375]

Get to work early take your break then work thru your lunch on the Paycom app.

[@Coffee_n_Fitness]

@@mikedelgado4375 how can I work through my lunch? The app locks me out. Meaning it doesn't let me into my itenerary. I always get there early, my route though is about 45 mins away to an hour in cattle country, I'm trying to go with a other DSP that delivers near where I live or just go to another job. I'm tired of dirt roads, super annoying. I like the job, I just don't like delivering to cows, horses and cowboys, oh and the occasional goat 😂

[@mikedelgado4375]

@@Coffee_n_Fitness Are you working thru a contractor? Our contractor uses the Paycom app. So on our travel time we take the fake lunch thru the Flex app then punch out thru the Paycom app while we deliver on the Amazon Flex app during the Paycom lunch.

[@Coffee_n_Fitness]

@@mikedelgado4375 I work for a DSP, yes it's a contractor but they provide the van, I don't use my own vehicle and my DSP also uses Paycom as well.

I’m a current driver: what I learned/whish I knew.... 1: Getting a guaranteed $15 an hour was so clutch my first year, then they gave us a rAiSe to $16.50 BUTTT no more guaranteed 10 hours😡 2: PEOPLE WHO ORDER THEIR ASSES OFF EVERY DAY NEED TO PUT THEIR DOGS AWAY!!!! 3: DSP’s show hella favoritism keeping the same drivers in the easy areas while the hard workers have to stay in the bumfuck country(not the nice country areas) or a downtown area, or a college campus area.. which all 3 ARE ASSSS😡 4: I didn’t know we have to do 200 stops a damn day!! And if you have a small amount of stops, guess what, you’re in the middle of NOWHERE country areas. 5: They will expect you to deliver in the WORST thunder storms, but when your exhausted ass gets back to turn the van and totes in, if it’s still storming they’ll make you sit in the van up to 40 damn minutes bc it’s “nOt sAfE bc of lightening” 6: customers RARELY answer the damn phone to help you find their crazy ass location. 7: I never knew people would CHOOSE to live in the most ridiculous places, the van can barely drive to, and driver can’t even find! 8: when it’s fall/winter, I hope you can see in the PITCH BLACK, bc you WILL be out there tripping over shit in yards bc you can’t see ANYTHING. 9: Some people make the job so worth it by offering bottles of water in the hot as hell summer, like this summer, while OTHER rude ass customers make you want to spit on their package and drive on their lawn to mess it up bc of how rude, petty, condescending and needy they are😡🙄

[@bjcorleone6805]

This is soooooo accurate

[@MichaelElam2]

Appreciate this, so do I have to be a fast driver since time is everything

[@tracylleras3607]

Thanks for the video. After learning everything by working for Amazon would you recommend this job?

[@anthonyworkman6379]

Pack a lunch and take breaks and lunch along the route. Most companies frown upon driving 15 mins to take a break or lunch

[@thevigilante1391]

She just gave 4 reasons not to work for those private contractors or Amazon. Talk about slavery is over sheesh 🙄 I can’t tell…

[@Micheck-1]

Those companies are easy to get into for a reason and profit by using the contractor as a shield to profit off the driver's...Ups,DHL,FedEx Express are all legit...With all the benefits...FedEx Ground, Ontrac, Amazon...Take advantage of all the driver's and break all type of labor laws...

[@gringa23]

I’m scared because I just went to an interview. I may stay at UPS…😅

I took a job with Amazon.I though it would be easy delivering packages I was wrong.This is a very tough job.She's right everything is time based.It was to much work to me and little pay.I had to let it go.

[@pahcsva]

Thank you sooooo much for saying Amazon can’t deliver to the mailboxes! It’s policy that you can’t just leave a package at the mailboxes! Yet at my apartment they do it all the the time. Ours is open.

[@taterm80]

I try to deliver everyone's package to their apartment door, but it really slows you down, and if you're slow, your DSP cuts your hours. We're literally just trying to get you your package and keep our jobs.

[@seanmeantime]

Definitely sounds like slavery. Need to lighten the load or they are gonna burn out their drivers and their reputation is already garbage for how they treat employees.

[@traningday]

I worked at FedEx express for eleven years overtime you rather drive more and deliver less I liked flex routes way better leas wear and tear on knees and back.

[@brandonpena6359]

I hate delivering to apartments had 6 complexes 40 doors each I totaled 200 doors I delivered to Amazon only counted it as 6 stops I had a total of 200 stops that day

[@jeremycaldwell3350]

So im watching videos before i start. I did all my test and now im starting my first day tomorrow on a ride along. Now after listening to her i feel better about starting. The fact that she said she doesn't like more time driving then delivery. Umm driving has to be the best part that should not be an issue. Everything i heard here make me wanna go work for them more
