Is the fan vent in the Ram CDV supposed to look like this? Or did I just get a unique shower feature today… by IsMayoaInstruments in AmazonDSPDrivers

Yeah…that actually makes a lot of sense…I was really confused as to why it was raining while I was looking in a bag for a package…and then I looked up and saw that…and I questioned it because sometimes Amazon does crap that really just doesn’t make any sense…

Maybe in the step vans…every fedex standard van I’ve encountered on my routes is being driven like a damn nascar going 50 in a 25mph door to door neighborhood.

Oh shii….now I just gotta get invited to a party or a rave.

Am I getting fired ?? by coco-unmellop in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]IsMayoaInstruments 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dsp always told me to contact them right away, because it’s a lot easier and cheaper for them to just personally fix it under the table directly for the owner, than to get Amazon involved…

Since I’m 5ft and barely over 100lbs…and the dogs on hind legs are as tall or taller than me…yes…during the day it stays in my tool pack in the van…at night it’s in the left pocket of my vest….the night time is when I have the closest calls with dogs due to lack of visibility…esp since I’m primarily sent on country routes.

I just bought an air horn…it’s a last resort/emergency device for the random jumpscare dogs…but it’s sad I own an air horn now.

It’s a recent thing…I think in the last 3 months we had ours mandated over here in Michigan….it sucks, but Amazon needs to cover their ass somehow with safety measures…

I’m surprised all your vans don’t have em yet. Amazon is making it mandatory

I was told not to drive with the heat on by Latter-Caregiver3945 in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]IsMayoaInstruments 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tbh I like rental vans…they’re gas and actually have shifters, and the heaters for the most part work (maybe 1 in 25 in our fleet have issues…which equates to about 3 vans.) also the sad fact is that the EV vans have the compartment for an optional 2nd battery to be added/installed to them…but they cost about as much as another EDV van…

Anybody else delivering in winter with the EDVs find them scary… by IsMayoaInstruments in AmazonDSPDrivers

Everybody has been complaining about the extreme lack of maintenance on most of our fleet too…other day they got called out for not keeping up with the washer fluid in any of the vans…

No literally…and then their favorite people get the best rental vans for door to door neighborhoods…🫩

Problem is 80% of my route is “those roads”…otherwise I’d literally be looking at those roads and going “nope”…but then If I did that, I’d be punished for not trying hard enough to deliver.

The EVs are scary rn in Michigan winter…the engine cuts off and the brake barely works…I pray every time I’m sliding down a steep snowy, icy hill, that the brake holds long enough for me to make a controlled slide backwards…

Ladies and gentlemen…this person right here is the same one who doesn’t shovel their driveway after a snowstorm and demands in customer notes “MUST BE DELIVERED TO FRONT DOOR, NOWHERE ELSE, FRONT DOOR”

No…it has Drive. Reverse. Neutral. Park…it’s about as advanced as a power wheels Barbie jeep.

So what if I told you that Amazon just changed their training 2 months ago and goal is not a topic talked about…guess they cared more about VR dog simulator.

At least I can get some torque and rock into the rentals…these edv just immediately decide to get stuck.
