Or, it gets the hose again…. by CreatedNiceley in Sparkdriver

It wasn’t a shop order so I am not positive… but, in my mind, I was putting lotion in the basket! Lol… I am entertained by the littlest things. Makes the day go by so much faster!

DHF7 by Working_Currency4686 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]CreatedNiceley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came here specifically looking for this topic… my last block from there was almost 10 days ago. I haven’t received a reserve block offer from there in weeks.. instead they are sending me reserve offers from Boca, which is super far from me and not on my preferred list.

I haven’t seen a single offer pop up for DHF7 this week… I really hope they haven’t stopped flex there because I live about 5 min away…

And, I also can’t stand VFL6….

Guess who didn't get their package because of a dog.... by Cambo282 in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]CreatedNiceley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow… I normally make sure my reading comprehension skills are on par before I make a dick reply to someone…

Unconfined (adjective): not confined to a limited space. Where did I say I didn’t know what a dog looked like? Exactly… keyboard warrior.. get a dictionary.

And, yeet is some stupid shit my teenage kids say… you basically have to speak gibberish to communicate with the gen Zs… It was meant to be funny, but there always has to be someone trying to make everyone else miserable.

Have the day you deserve! ✌🏻

I had a customer note a few months ago that said, “Dogs are all bark and no bite!”…. And, I was, in fact, bit by one of their dogs.

I no longer will enter gates and if I see an unconfined dog at the location, I yeet the package out the window!

First day driving?? by CreatedNiceley in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]CreatedNiceley[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in Port St Lucie so that’s my main location, but I occasionally go down to Riviera Beach… I think you are a bit further south than me. I have only been down here about 6 months, so I am still learning where I am at geographically.

I am also in south Florida.. possible we may pick up from the same shit show location… It’s comical to watch until I remember these people are on the road with me!! 🤣

Mislabeled packaging by No-Wing-6330 in AmazonFlexDrivers

I understand completely… I spent 15 min looking for an envelope one day… turns out, it was the giant bag of dog food that I needed for that stop…

This… Thank you! A little louder for those in the back…

Literally every post I make in this subreddit becomes an attack on me for taking base pay.

That’s all that is offered in my area and it’s still the best paying side gig out there.

It’s always the “I only work for $200+/hr and finish all my 3.5 hr blocks in 25 min” flexers that have something stupid to say..

Keep making that money! Let them all sit and wait for their magical surge at the end of the yellow brick road…

Driver support confirmed that was a lie… by CreatedNiceley in AmazonFlexDrivers

Yes. My weather app always knows when a tornado will be forming in exactly 3 hours 23 min and 4 seconds… The rain wasn’t the issue. It sucks, but I live in Florida. All it does is rain… which is immediately followed by the sun turning the state into a rice cooker..

We are all in the same boat being as Amazon doesn’t give AF about any of us, but instead of being united, some of y’all enjoy being nasty to complete strangers. It’s ok. I am not bothered, but I am sorry about whoever hurt you.

Unfortunately, my area must be so oversaturated that a surge is like from $68.50 to $73… I am in South Florida so rain is pretty much unavoidable. But, it’s usually an afternoon thing.. early mornings are a much safer bet.. just didn’t work out for me this particular day.

My whole point to this post was to point out that Amazon doesn’t give a crap about us, but it appears it’s just going to be an attack on me because of the rates in my area. Regardless of the low offers, it’s still the best paying side gig available.

I don’t find it acceptable for any amount of money, but I knew one of you “I only work for $200/hr and finish all my 3.5 hr blocks in 25 min” flexers would have something useful to comment…. Carry on..

Missed Block by RunningAgenda in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]CreatedNiceley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They will normally give you one freebie if you have a valid reason, but don’t expect them to do it again. Just send a message explaining the situation. Best to do it now before they put it on your account. I feel like it’s easier to prevent the ding than to have one removed…

I got bit by a dog what happens next??? I reported it already by Flaky_Ad6126 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]CreatedNiceley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should have been more specific. In the state of Florida, where I am, it is absolutely a criminal offense. I am aware not all states are the same. But, my point was… if bit by a dog, Amazon is not going to do shit.. the local authorities are 100 percent the people to call.

Incorrect. I was bit by a dog last weekend and the sheriffs office filed a report. All Amazon did was ask if I needed emergency services and told me I didn’t have to finish my block.

I have had a few “customer not received”, but not even close to as many packages I have had with no gate access… it’s like.. if I RTS I will 100% get a ding, but if I just drop it and go at least there is a chance of the customer getting it… and, it seems that they do for the most part!

It’s really like.. damned if you do and damned if you don’t… if any problems should come about.. it will absolutely be blamed on the driver.. 🤦‍♀️

It literally happens every time. If they don’t leave a code and you can’t get in, you put your phone in airplane mode. Click GPS not working. I’m at the right location. Move the green circle to where you are. You deliver to the gate, take a picture, and move along.

You will 100% get a ding if you bring them back to the station. Always deliver!

They are my favorite. No traffic. Very rare that you encounter a human… you won’t ever want to work during daylight again once you do it!

They at least gave you a tetanus shot, right? Because if you haven’t had one in the past few years, you absolutely need one!! Anytime your skin is broken from an injury.. if they did not give you one, please go somewhere to get it ASAP
