I’ve been with Amazon for 4 months and it’s frustrating work but it’s great to be outside, no boss on you all day, no coworkers causing drama for unnecessary reasons. Nobody can blame you for anything you didn’t do. You’re out on your own and it’s up to you to get the job done. It’s hectic at times but I can’t see myself going back inside a building with a boss and coworkers. I’ve been laid off from a few places after years of working there when I literally was breaking my back and working my ass off and when layoffs came around that all meant nothing. A boss always has favorites even if they don’t work as hard as you. Amazon is decent money and flexible.

AZ delivery girly here! Pro tip that has helped me A LOT: I always bring a crate to organize the packages in numerical order. I also switch the stickers on the boxes to the side or bring a sharpie and write the numbers on the boxes when the stickers don’t come off. And then I organize the boxes on the shelf with the number sticker showing. Organizing after opening each tote can take time but it makes every stop so easy and smooth!

Pretty realistic video right here. Most people would have the same struggle as this video if you do not organize your packages well. Ive been a DA for amazon for a year and 3 months now and I've always been fast specially if I get residentials. My current record which is my station's record is 104 stops ahead. I have multiple 90+ stops ahead while ranging from 140-190 stop routes. The strategy I use below: 1. Rule of last 2 digits - only look at last 2 digits of house number and driver aid number (automates your mental process) 2. Sharpie on overflows facing you (big and bold), so you can walk down the aisle and see everything. 3. Separate boxes and envelopes/plastic bag 4. boxes on driver side stickers facing me to avoid breaking my neck turning. Envelopes/plastic bag on the opposite side. 5. envelopes grouped by 10s. have 2-3 stacks depending on numbers. example: 23 and 28 will be on 1 stack, and 42 and 49 be on same stacks. (takes less than 5 sec to find this way) 6. Bonus strat: "unknown and customized box" are the same thing. they can either be any type (envelope, plastic bag, or box with no amazon smile branding). Use this info to not look at the amazon boxes with smiles. That's 1 less package type check. if it helps, keep the "customized boxes/unknown" looking box closer to have a quick glance. As you are unloading your tote, pay attention to what you need on your next stop and put it aside as you are organizing. Grab whatever package from tote and place according to what type of package it is and sort as you remove them from tote. It should take you less than 2 minutes to unload and sort each tote -- less than 3 minutes if it's a loaded one. Image link to 2 of my metrics ibb.co/FzVn3mp - 95 stops ahead (180 stops) ibb.co/TtqG1S4 - 104 stops ahead (152 stops) Goodluck folks!

Just got done with my 2nd day. I will say damn this job is bit tougher then I thought and when I mean tougher I mean by physically!. I was sore the day after. Literally gave me football conditioning flash backs lol. I came from selling cars and that was mentally stressful. This Job is physically stressful. Honestly I’d take physical stress over mental stress anyday. But I agree what everyone is saying 100%, it’s nice being like your own boss. No one bothering you. No stupid customer service, no conworkers just music, drink & deliver and enjoy the outdoors. Do I see myself doing this long term? Probably not. Temporary? Yes. I feel like this is a good stepping stone to get into more advance driving jobs like CDL an what not. Not that it makes a difference but it’s nice resume to have. I definitely don’t see myself doing this forever. But it’s good for now until I figure out what I wanna do with my life. I’ll probably get back into sales eventually since I already have the experience made the most money I ever made. But this is a very different shift in work and it’s nice a change for once.

Mannn, I use to hate garage deliveries. My first one, there was a big ass dog waiting in there barking at me. On my 2nd one, the door wouldn't close and I'm standing there looking like an idiot to the neighborhood, calling Dispatch like what am I supposed to do. And my 3rd one closed, but the app just kept spinning, and it wouldn’t acknowledge that it closed, so after 15 minutes of standing around, wasting time, seeing that it was closed, I moved on to my next stop. I get a call from Amazon about 30 minutes later asking me why I left without securing the garage. I say it was closed. They say, next time that happens, I'll get wriiten up. Needless to say, from then on, I delivered those packages to the door and skipped the whole garage process altogether. Don't make the job harder than it needs to be. They're really good at adding things to make you waste more time, but they're bad at implementing things to help shave some off.

It makes sense to give the EV routes so many more stops, because EVs are much more efficient at stop & go traffic and fall short at higher speeds (literally the faster the motor goes the more power it uses). There's some extra power needed when it produces torque (i.e. when accelerating) but nowhere near as much as an ICE vehicle. They also accelerate faster, so that could very well speed up a route. Not sure if that's Amazon's thinking or if they even care, but it would make sense.

I'm sorry bro but some of us like to deliver packages professionally and actually like a customer interaction every now and then. It's much better then looking so desperate to make a delivery.

It wasnt always like that. Your monitored with a driving app and they use that as a violation indicator which they use to keep or fire you. On AVERAGE you will get up to 200 stops with 300+ pakages, and during peak season its even worse. You cant take any breaks so usually u just urinate in bottles in order to keep pace. They love to give you loose packages (Overflow) with a van thats to small for the amount they want delivered leaving you with no room to work. (This happens alot) Your dsp is always watching and as a scare tactic will call you if your not "going fast enough" while they sit at the base and laugh and joke.(They hate it when someone quits while out on the job and there forced to go finish the route 😊) DSP do play favorites, the really good routes they give to there buds. While shitty routes they give to drivers they dont like. They also use it as a tactic to get a driver to quit by giving them REALLY bad routes for weeks strait until they burnout and quit.

Ive been a dsp manager for 10 years and either you can do the job or you cant lol. All you have to do is drop off packages.. an 8 hour oute takes me about 5 hoirs and i have multiple drivers that can do the same. There are some technical issues with the routing and flex app but if your having too many issues its probably a driver error. Facts

Finally someone 40+ that describes this job, thanks!! I start my ride along next week and will be on my own the following week. If it's too much wear and tear on me mentally and physically then I will leave. But I'm gonna at least try.

That van is perfect for a custom camper.... I was doing this part time, and it is not easy. I am in a small city, so distance between stops are bigger because all the farmland & longer driveways. But, I found it was difficult to even do 130-150 stops. 100 was the sweet spot for me. Can't even imagine to do 200+ stops.....

this job is perfect if you are the kind of guy who does all the map sidequests in a RPG like assassins creed or the witcher lmao, just go to the waypoint on the screen.
