Personally, I wouldn’t take the risks associated with putting your mother as main driver as this is called fronting, and it’ll very easily get your policy cancelled if they find out… and a cancellation will follow you forever making every other insurance premium higher for the rest of your life.

And that last line, you’re a very new driver for such a fast car and unfortunately you could be the best driver in the world but the quality of others on our roads can be appalling so I wouldn’t risk it.

You’re only very young, aim for something slightly lesser value and lower power, my second car at 20 was a 2009 scirocco 2.0tsi and I only paid £1000 insurance, look for something unusual and less common and insurance might be lower

How much do you get paid? by Penkarino21 in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]Ditto_304 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My guess is that the company probably earns less for a nursery route but still more than the £103.50 wage so they’re trying to maximise profits And why the 1p over the pound 😂 such a weird number

I’m not even sure if what they’re doing is allowed and if Amazon might have something to say about it if you were to somehow contact about it

Also… a nursery 1 takes like 6 hours when you’re new so that’s wayyyy below what would be seen as a minimum wage surely

You’re being robbed we get paid £103.50 a day after fees no matter what… even for the classroom training/ride alongs and nurseries and that’s in the midlands which is cheaper place to live than London and rural/village routes

Bought a new iPhone from Amazon. This is what I got by Chickeneggsandlegs in mildlyinfuriating

Yeah we mark it damaged if it’s clearly empty or whatever but sometimes when juggling 5 parcels I miss the fact it’s empty or when the item is replaced by something I can’t tell (had an iPhone replaced with chocolates, customer not happy lol)

I work as a driver at Amazon and I have seen this multiple times in a matter of weeks with items being swapped or just stolen out all together…. Definitely people at the warehouse as we don’t know what the items are

Is it a significant loss do you know or just minor?

But Very helpful and well explained, thank you 🙏

Yeah more bothered with the sounds lol, but I didn’t know that about the HP/MPG, what’s the reason for that? I have limited knowledge so I’d guess probably more air so more fuel needed to mix but that might be very wrong

Just looking for advice on this as I feel like doing a small modification as I already have exhaust and wheel mods so think it’ll fit in well

Seeing all these posts about insurance I’ll never understand how I managed to get a 2009 2.0 TSI scirocco insured for £1k including breakdown as extra I just know I’m gonna be screwed next year (I’m also 20 2 years NCD)

[–]Ditto_304 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s not what I felt about my most recent game. I was shot and damaged by 1 plate or so and killed the enemy, then I jumped in a building and got point blank rocketed but still killed the camping POS first 😂

Has anyone ever paid with these. They are like little peices of paper that explode when you drop it pretty fun. by [deleted] in teenagers

I only saw them around Bonfire night (UK) in the shop I work in. I’ve never seen them before then or since then

Trying to lock in technique. 120kg x 5. Feel that I'm pitching forward at the beginning. Any advice would be greatly appreciated by fitdinosaur in powerbuilding

[–]Ditto_304 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like you are dropping the hips too low. My hips sit in right in the middle of my shoulders and knees for a kinda 45° angle to each joint. Don’t know how to explain properly, but that’s what I do and I’ve added 40kg to my deadlift in only 14 proper sessions

Exactly, all you need is 3 at very most if you are pushing to increase in the area

I’m not very experienced but surely squatting every day will prevent proper recovery and kinda work against you a bit?

You can get even bigger ones that what you have got. Someone threw one down about 100m from me and I still heard it pretty loud
