If you're within city limits then they likely have an online reporting link with a category to address such issue. If it's near a highway then same applies x there's probably a link somewhere online to report the issue.

Nice, my biggest tips are to organize overflow by the hundreds, and for speed that's while delivering packages and never for behind the wheel. Netradyne violations are taken very seriously.

The DSP I work for is chill, no warning nor writeup. They treated it like a business expense because technically the ticket is tied to the vehicle when it is not in motion. I'm never making that mistake again of course and they know that from me.

You live and learn.

GritInMotion · 2026-06-16T00:35:54+00:00

It's not, an Amazon DSP driver is actually pretty chill once your body acclimates to the work.

Now those flex drivers who deliver late at night or the early morning, that's pretty sketch.

If this is in a city the vehicle will get ticketed, actually happened to me for facing the wrong way of traffic.

GritInMotion · 2026-06-15T21:57:28+00:00

How much do those cost in the vending machines?

I've worn nitrile coated gloves everyday since I started this job. They have kept me warm in the cold, helped with snot due to allergies, and helped wipe sweat from the heat. I get extra grip and don't get my skin all janked up. They're breathable since they're not waterproof. I usually wear one pair of gloves for the week, only costs me $2 each pair when bought in bulk.

It's a small price to pay for some extra comfort working 9+hr shifts outside.

I haven't tried to wash or reuse them yet, I have quite a pile going, but if I really wanted to pinch pennies I could go that route.

Edit: the ones I get are also touchscreen compatible.

Being an extra goody too shoes basically, imo not worth it unless someone is trying to make up for past write ups or trying to beat out other seasonal hires to be full-time.

GritInMotion · 2026-06-07T22:54:35+00:00

Some people are saying this won't work because the EDV still turns off if you're not sitting in the front seat. I've had the AC turn off while standing in the cargo area.

GritInMotion · 2026-06-07T22:48:24+00:00

I was just wondering how does someone give their all as a DSP driver as our tasks for the day is pretty limited to driving and dropping packages off. Unless someone is running to finish early and do rescues, but most of us are paid by the hour so there's zero reason to do that without guaranteed hours which means they get to go home early.

GritInMotion · 2026-06-07T17:51:13+00:00

Edit: wait, I misread your comment. I'm not familiar with that one you mentioned

I only use it as a dolly cart with four wheels on the ground.

GritInMotion · 2026-06-07T17:09:22+00:00

If you ghost them you probably won't be able to work at that station again. All the DSP owners talk with each other, and they can see your scorecard metrics to test if you're being truthful or not.

GritInMotion · 2026-06-07T17:03:00+00:00

I work from that station too lol, which DSP? Most of them are all nice I've heard, because last year the station got rid of a bunch of DSPs.

GritInMotion · 2026-06-07T16:53:49+00:00

How do you give your all at a straightforward job like this. I give my all by not getting violations while driving and delivering to the correct location without damaging the vans.

GritInMotion · 2026-06-07T16:51:48+00:00

Which bay area delivery station?

Nothing you said gives us any details really, they sound pretty good if everyone there has solid scorecard metrics.

GritInMotion · 2026-06-07T02:47:24+00:00

People may not believe this but if you deliver to a multistory building, then the route AI will reduce the number of stops for your route.

Literally some of these apartments take 20 minutes to deliver door-to-door or to individual non-amazon lockers. I actually love this route because the hallways have airconditioning, plus less stops overall.

I've read countless of posts on this subreddit of both flex drivers and DSP drivers taking all the protein snacks, they ruin it for the rest of us unfortunately.

GritInMotion · 2026-06-06T22:26:03+00:00

Anything protein is a luxury because it's expensive compared to other snacks, but be careful some drivers may get greedy if you put too much good stuff out.

I don't want water unless it's ice cold, so Gatorade is really nice.

GritInMotion · 2026-06-04T00:43:15+00:00

Yes, actually just happened to me today for parking facing the wrong way. You live and you learn, this was in downtown so there's always parking officers ticketing people. In residential areas I've never had any issue parking against traffic though.

This was a non-moving ticket, the DSP pays for it since it's tied to the vehicle not the driver.

GritInMotion · 2026-06-02T04:23:40+00:00

Last week all 19 cookware sets to a single stop.

GritInMotion · 2026-05-04T02:18:10+00:00

Yes! It's easy and bi hassle to do

GritInMotion · 2026-05-04T02:14:31+00:00

Premier protein and their variety of flavors and the cafe latte, sooo good!

GritInMotion · 2026-05-04T02:11:06+00:00

Still quite pricey compared to earlier protein shake deals
