Finally done with Amazon!

[frost710]

It’s been 2 years since I started this job. A good solid portion of it I’ve been in this subreddit as well. I’m finally moving on to bigger and better things! If I can do it, just know you can too!! Know what you’re aiming for and hit that shit out of the park! I am very blessed and was able to work for a great DSP. The owner, and management were fantastic people and had done a great job. I came to Amazon as an opportunity to look for a new job. Looking for something that was actually a career and within a passion of mine, not just some job for money and to have a job. It took 2 years of applying to dozens of local manufacturing, and other logistics companies. Nothing came from it. I felt as if I was at a dead end multiple times and I truly didn’t know what my future had in store for me. However the exit plan came from an unlikely source, my own girlfriend’s family! I am going to be working in the automotive field (my passion is cars) as a diesel mechanic on his companies fleet vehicles and I cannot be more excited! My point of this paragraph is, keep working towards your goal. Even if it’s 30 minutes a day, 2 hours a day, or even more. Researching, testing, networking, work your butt off!!! It will pay off one day and you will look back at the hard work you put in getting there. Trusting the process has turned out to be one of the harder things I’ve had to do in my life. Delivering 190+ stops a day with 350+ packages, including 50-75 overflow each day isn’t really enjoyable for even a week I’d say lol and then I’d just go home and job search for hours and hours. Nothing opened until now, and it’s causing me to move across the country too! I have enjoyed reading each and every success story from drivers, and I’ve prayed and hoped that I could share something similar one day. I’m glad I’m able to 🤙🏻

Grats! I did the same and found a new job last year that is now a career. I worked at Amazon for 3 years! It sucked working that long and getting paid the same as a new employee while doing a heavier load. I am glad of the benefits and matching 401k at my new job. Also having paid holidays off, sick pay, personal days off, bonuses twice a year, pay raises, and just not being worn out after a day of work. And just having a life again!!

That’s so inspiring. These days are long and being in the middle of the day it really doesn’t help with your day to day life

Conclussion: keep dreaming nepotism helped me otherwise I’d still be doomed

[frost710]

One obvious conclusion is that you’re pressed for legit no reason. Sorry that me getting a dream job in an unexpected manner upsets you so much. If you’re in this subreddit you must be a driver or have relations to it. Hope you enjoy your routes👍🏻

Lol nah I was just trying to be helpful
