Have you ever wondered what would happen if an Amazon driver couldn't finish delivering their packages. maybe the driver got hurt during their route. Maybe they just weren't fast enough and too slow to deliver. What would happen is they would receive a rescue! What exactly is a rescue? We'll find out more in this video.

For those wondering, mandatory rescues usually only happen with DSPs that offer guaranteed hours every week. Meaning if you get done early you still get your full days pay. At least from my experience. Found one that offered both guaranteed pay and paid rescues, those are the unicorns.
@JankyJack
@JankyJack 9 ай бұрын
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 has mandatory rescues. What I do is, once I hit around 40-50 stops, I take my time so that I don’t have to do rescues. Usually I can get 25-30 stops done a hours, so I turned that 25 to 12, because I don’t feel like getting done by 6:30 and then having to pick up 30 stops. So I try to drag it out to at least 7, because my DSP is stingy so they don’t like drivers being out past 8 or they have to pay us OT.

In germany, we have a few drivers always stationed as pure Rescue Drivers, usually we have 5-6 People, who have 190-250 Stops. Also fast drivers can optionally do rescues, I usually do it, since I work mostly in Villages where either most of the customers are at home or you can deliver to the door and leave, so I usually finish at 4-5pm

I saw something like this not long ago. At the time I thought the first truck had broken down. But after the rescue truck left there was a few minutes pause before the first truck left. They were of equal size so when they pulled up back-to-back there wasn't hardly any gap between the two. Kinda cool to see how you guys help each other out.

I am used to delivering pallets of nuts and bolts with a box truck. I live in Sioux Falls Sd. I loved driving and not having to be stuck in a warehouse all day. The biggest drawback was having to dive a 13ft truck on back roads during the winter time. Thank you for all of your videos and thank you to all the Guys and Gals who deliver our packages to us. I am going to look and see if my local DSP is hiring right now.

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.

⁠@@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.

I'm a DoorDash driver and there are some deliveries that I've done between 7PM and 2AM that are in really sketchy looking neighborhoods. So I usually lock my car when I do a delivery even tho its only a few feet. I eventually want to become a driver with either Amazon or FedEx since I've worked for both companies before.

I no longer do this job but I always hated getting done and sent to rescue then having the driver that I rescued getting finished and heading in before me. Most of the time it was the same person and they were sandbagging just to get help so I would start sandbagging on my own route and get done just about an hour and a half or two hours before I was supposed to be in. Most of the time there would be drivers that got done earlier and they would get sent to rescue and I would get to go in. I didnt mind helping someone out that had a big route and actually needed it (believe me, I needed it from time to time) but when someone just sandbags because they want someone else to do their job then I play their games too.

Super long unfinishable routes, no ability to stop for a break or lunch, low pay, low to 0 tips espcially the more money the area had the less they gave out until you'd just run into house servants that didn't even speak english keeping their houses in order. Just felt like a slave after a while and quit.

@@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.

Your DSP is different - with my DSP, it’s part of your shift if you finish your route early - I did two rescues yesterday!

My last three Amazon deliveries have been delayed between 1 to 4 days. When I looked at my tracking, for my last order, it went back to the warehouse three times before I finally got it.

Been there and done that for two years and i don't miss it one bit na im lying it was pretty cool to be out and about on the road all day and getting a great cardio workout and some heavy lifting. Only part that sucked is i worked there during COVID times. So in having that said we would have between 140 to 200 stops and within that time you gotta eat and that puts you back and also finding a washroom because no gas station would let you in (because of COVID) made good money tho!! Hated buildings with multiple stops in it. However The customer's really appreciated our work and what we were doing. Also bought some Amazon stocks during that time too!!

I first found your Rivian video. That Rivian is awesome and I definitely understand why you like it more. I would love to experience what it's like to do deliveries for Amazon, or even drive a big rig. I used to drive big trucks in the army, and I miss it. Unfortunately, I've gotten too many speeding tickets over the last few years, so I doubt I'll be able to get any kind of driving job. Oh well. I enjoy being a SWE, but I work from home and never get to drive anywhere interesting.

Just some advice. At night I use a head flash light that I converter to go around my wrist like a watch so I can still hold packages with both hands and still shine my light. I also got a thin 5000mah battery with its own built in type c cable that slips into a phone dry case. So I can work in the rain while still charging so no need for wires and power bricks. I also stick on a metal magnet plate on 1 side of the case so it works with magnet mounts too. Ive been a driver for 3 years and 2 months and it works good for me.

One of the main drawbacks keeping me at FE Ground. Busting my tail all day trying to go home to my life then being yanked out to go finish someone elses route. Newer drivers shld have routes they are capable of handling and it shld grow as they progress. Slow delivering is no excuse. A legit breakdown or true emergency is my only acceptable exception to "rescuing."

Our DSP rounds up our hours to 40. So getting done early daily is worth it. They also always run a few sweepers, so rarely get asked to rescue.

My DSP makes it optional, and we get a bonus if we do it (not based on per package) its $50 outside of peak but when we were in peak it was $75. And with ours it’s completely optional and only ever 20 stops picked up

Not sure how often you deliver in the dark, but I would say (even though it may look a little sketchy) get a good flashlight, definitely been a good investment for me (I work at FedEx). One of my coworkers just switched to amazon and I've been thinking about doing the same.
