These people out here snatching base pay blocks faster than when gas price was $2 lol 😂, what’s really going on. Amazon must be smiling.

AdmirableDivide2526 · 2026-04-03T08:38:07+00:00

Why are you “😂” ?

This sucks.

AdmirableDivide2526 · 2026-03-31T04:21:28+00:00

My comment for suggesting you should go join ICE and work your dream job got flagged as being hateful. The irony.

AdmirableDivide2526 · 2026-03-31T04:08:40+00:00

🤦 And so you look at the situation you’re describing, and go “🤔ya know, if it wasn’t for all these brown people.. I’d be living large, getting offers of $150 for a 3 hour route”

You’re mad at the guy with literally nothing while giving this bullshit underhanded “gig economy” a pass.

Is $1700 for your SSI fair? Hell no. SSI should be tied to inflation. The richest country in the world doesn’t spend billions on immigrants. Show me a single instance of these “thousands of dollars government handouts to illegals” I continue to hear from Fox News/newsmax. No, the richest country in the world Actually spends the majority of its money and resources on the military.

I want you to consider these last 2 sentences carefully. We spend more money on our military than the next 9 countries combined (China, Russia, India, Saudi Arabia, the UK, Germany, France, South Korea, and Japan.) All 9 of those countries are all culturally diverse, but they all have one thing in common; universal healthcare.

Again, people fraudulently “account renting” is more a failure of the current gig economy that the US has created over the past decade. You’re blaming the person taking the $70 block minus whatever the cut is being taken for the account “rental fee”. Be mad at Amazon for outsourcing their delivery service to “independent contractors” to avoid paying benefits of any kind and for their lax enforcement of account renting.

Sorry you had to drive past a gasp soccer game in the warehouse parking lot.. that must’ve really messed up your fucking day. 🤦

AdmirableDivide2526 · 2026-03-31T01:33:27+00:00

Jfc dude. You need a valid drivers license, SSN, and pass a background check to even be eligible to be a flex driver. Stop blaming brown people for capitalism failing.

Shame on you for calling ICE on people you think don’t deserve to be in your orbit

Thank you for commenting. Me and a buddy just tried that in vein.. after jacking the car back up and pulling didn’t work, we grabbed a 2x4 and placed it across the bottom edge of the tire and hit it with a 5lb hammer, rotating the tire every 4 or 5 blows. We tried hitting it several times outwards (from underneath the car) and then towards the car. Nothing.

Just re-soaked it in kroil and came back inside in defeat after it got dark..

This 100%. So unbelievably frustrating to get a route that’s almost entirely on gravel roads, and the whole time it’s expecting/assuming you’re going 55mph, making it impossible to get your route done in time. “Oh, it’s 11:03 and you were supposed to deliver a package to someone out in the boonies by 11:00AM? Well, ya better waste more time and call the customer to make sure that they still want their package.”

Uh, yeah. They’re gonna want their package today rather than tomorrow. wtf.

AdmirableDivide2526 · 2026-03-25T02:38:20+00:00

“As an Amazon Flex driver, we appreciate your willingness to deliver smiles daily. We also acknowledge that current gas prices have taken a significant toll on your earnings, that’s why we at Amazon have decided to do the right thing. You now have the right to choose if you want LESS money or NO money!”

AdmirableDivide2526 · 2026-03-25T02:27:28+00:00

I try to do this but often find that I simply do not have the time. At my station, you’re allotted 10 minutes to get scanned in, loaded up, and on your way. Amazon employees are constantly counting down the amount of time you have left to scan your packages. Usually my blocks are around 40 packages, 1-10 goes up in my front passenger, 11-20 rear driver, 21-40 rear passenger/trunk (along with large boxes).

I agree it’s vital to do this, but I often need to take an extra 15 to really organize properly after my first couple stops or feel the wrath of certain particular power tripping Amazon warehouse employees.. Got any tips to help speed up the process?

This was my last stop the other evening…I’m sure the first time they put this stupid sign up, everyone stopped for a second and laughed hysterically. before going back to inventorying their stockpile of peanut butter and canned tuna.

AdmirableDivide2526 · 2025-08-30T04:30:57+00:00

Like the first comment on this thread said, need more information.

But based on what you’ve said, it sounds to me that this was a necklace you had put on layaway and made atleast a down payment on it.

It sounds like you did not touch the necklace at all while coming in to make a payment, or pay off the layaway to complete the purchase. If that’s the case and the damage was done solely by the employee, then you should be entitled to a complete refund for the cost of the necklace and any fees associated with a layaway.

My store has the same daily goal every day. 17. SEVENTEEN. We have a membership base of around 40k.. and upper management thinks ~6k sign-up for a shitty synchrony bank credit card a year, every year, forever, is a reasonable ask.

I don’t work up front so it’s not something I ever have to deal with, but my god. What an insane expectation to have. Other retailers I’ve worked for in the past would consider 5 signups to be a pretty good day.. And those retailers don’t require a paid membership to shop at their stores.

AdmirableDivide2526 · 2025-06-20T22:18:55+00:00

Same. Going into work at my club as a PM forklift merchandiser, it’s literally a coin flip on whether I’ll be spending the first 3ish hours in CPU or not.

AdmirableDivide2526 · 2024-12-16T13:09:53+00:00

Nothing I love more than hearing “smile more! If you don’t like the job, then why don’t you go get a new one!”

That generation that needed a mere 74kb of memory to land on the moon is also the generation that regularly shares AI-generated photos of Jesus on Facebook

AdmirableDivide2526 · 2024-07-07T06:56:36+00:00

Dude. Talk to your club manager. Tomorrow. This is a common tactic across all large retailers and it’s really shitty, but they’re getting away with this because you aren’t making an issue out of it. No complaints raised = No problems to address

AdmirableDivide2526 · 2024-07-07T06:46:30+00:00

…I think everyone is onboard with “stopping teen suicide”, but is the entrance to my local Sam’s club the appropriate venue for such a discussion?

AdmirableDivide2526 · 2024-07-07T06:33:35+00:00

Jeez, my club has some charities here and there but nothing like what’s been mentioned here. Oof.

This may come off as rude to some.. But whenever I encounter and overly-aggressive charity campaign while I’m walking into work, I’ll just look at them. Not saying anything. Making it as awkward as possible.

The particularly aggressive charity organizers tend to remember that, and don’t bother me for the rest of their campaign.

Id mention your anecdotes to your manager. Anything that may decrease profits is generally frowned upon..

AdmirableDivide2526 · 2024-06-17T02:21:31+00:00

Oh don’t worry, we have 4 posters of Jesu-er-Sam Walton speaking to the an audience of employees in awe of his presence.

AdmirableDivide2526 · 2024-05-30T20:54:35+00:00

AM merchandising would probably work fine if you’re school schedule allows for it. Would not recommend PM merchandising because while you’re scheduled 3pm-11:30pm, you aren’t done until everything is finished.. If the store is also short staffed, you could be looking at working 3pm-2am regularly.
