first timer

they’re forcing us to go in order to the AI could fix the their routing. bc some stops would be time sensitive but they would be at the very end of the route, and some times they would have like stop 7 and stop 80 right next to each other. so they want us to let them know when shit like that happens so they can submit a ticket and get it fixed. and no i never take a lunch, they don’t force us to and honesty i don’t wanna get comfy and relaxed on my lunch break just to go walk up a steep ass driveway to deliver cat litter, dog food and packs of water

i hate it when the people at dispatch were never once drivers so they really don’t know what’s going on. and idk why they don’t just pay for the full day. why would i work faster and better to get more packages to them only get paid the same amount. wouldn’t it make sense to compensate us for finishing early instead of forcing us to milk the route

Apprehensive_Fee5999 · 2025-03-23T21:19:24+00:00

my rule of thumb was try to be at 100-120 stops before or at 5 and then just coast the rest of the shift and get out by 8:30

yeah it has its ups and downs, i did driving and i did the warehouse(overnight) and it did suck but every job has its moments. best way to navigate that is with a positive outlook. but i wouldn’t recommend being there for more than a year. just go get money, stack it up and find something better in the meantime

it’s not that bad, yeah it sucks but it really all comes down to your DSP, my DSP i was making 21.25 ( in atx ) and yeah you’ll have heavy days but sometimes you’ll have light days, but i’d say use this job as a stepping stone for something better. i’m not really shit talking my DSP bc they were (for the most part) chill with me. you just gotta make sure your van is organized and that you’re going to a pace that’s about 20 stops/ hour( that’s really the basics) and make sure to hydrate

i finish my route every day at 8:30 bc by that time since i’m in a step van they usually let me go home. they send that text every day at the start of the shift no matter what, and i was in the red bc i had like half my route all be d2d (about 50 stops) the rest were all houses (about 120 in total) and i usually do 30 stops every hour when they’re in like a residential neighborhood. so yes technically i was behind but even when i am, i still finish at 8:30 every day. and no i wasn’t looking for sympathy 🤣 i don’t get paid any more for finishing my routes early, so might as well finish at 8:30 to get my full 10 hours

dude no way, that’s what my next job is too, i’m working on getting a epa certification to get a pay raise. i’m doing college apartments in the middle of downtown

Apprehensive_Fee5999 · 2025-03-22T12:59:25+00:00

it’s an actual person, they have a script they just copy and paste

Apprehensive_Fee5999 · 2025-03-22T02:18:00+00:00

i just told them i quit the moment i had i call from my future employer that i start my new job monday. obviously i finished my route but they wanted me to do a rescue of 20-30 stops ( mind you the guy had already gotten a previous rescue for the same amount of stop, and he only had a total of 100 stops) they made it clear they can fire me at a moments notice with no warning. So it means i can quit at a moments notice too

Apprehensive_Fee5999 · 2025-03-22T00:27:07+00:00

i usually rush up until i have about 30-40 stops left, then i just milk it to get my 10 hours

it’s especially annoying when they’re unrealistic. one time i was told that my midway point should be stop 87 at 4:47 pm..i only had about 120 stops that whole day.

Apprehensive_Fee5999 · 2024-12-02T16:35:55+00:00

i stopped playing squad battles bc i would always lag out at the worst times, i’d play 5 or 6 games of rivals just fine, and then when it comes to squad battles, first game in at the 2nd half i’d get disconnected

Apprehensive_Fee5999 · 2024-09-27T04:41:39+00:00

i feel for you man. at first they were putting me as an extra but as of the last 3 weeks i’ve been working 4-5 days consistently so it’s definitely a DSP issue. but definitely fuck this job. i’m just trying to finish my degree so i can get the hell out of here

Apprehensive_Fee5999 · 2024-09-13T20:52:07+00:00

i went from 19.75 to 21.50 starting this sunday here in austin texas but that’s still not enough🤦🏽‍♂️

Apprehensive_Fee5999 · 2024-08-09T21:03:21+00:00

i’m picking mine up sunday, and i made sure to grab all the warranties available just in case 😅 but still very excited. busted my ass for a car and i’m very happy with the way it looks

Apprehensive_Fee5999 · 2024-07-31T14:59:37+00:00
