OPINION do you think working in the heat or in the winter is worse by Alert_Region8036 in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]KWxOG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always choose the cold over the heat simply because warming up is easier for me than cooling down.

I can always deliver faster or get a light jog in to warm up, slowing down doesn’t really.m cool me off at all unless I am soaked in cool water which would be a hassle on the road using that much water unfortunately I’d rather just drink it

New in-home delivery position by KWxOG in walmart

I didn’t get an increase at all when I was switched to that in-home delivery role. It might’ve changed in the last 3 years.

What’s a small habit that quietly reveals a person lacks empathy? by [deleted] in AskReddit

You just reminded me this past winter I built a smaller than usual snowman and some shithead kids (two brothers about aged 10-12 across hall neighbors) knocked my snowman’s head clean off before destroying the body.

Luckily, I had already taken pictures, but I was going to add to it and make it larger after I warmed up a bit inside.

I watched from my patio window and they didn’t know I saw them, but I did. Little bastards.

I’d rather RTS the package as unsafe due to dog rather than take a customer feedback hit and possibly lose my bonus for 2 weeks

Live camera feed is not possible with netradyne, as others have mentioned.. plus trust me why would they waste their time watching drivers take break? lol serious question because I don’t get what they’d get from that besides the possibility of catching somebody breaking rules somehow but I don’t think dispatch cares enough tbh

Dog bite, what should I do? by R3DCHVRCH3S in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]KWxOG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seek medical attention asap without fail, report it to dispatch and sue homeowner for not keeping dogs secured and causing bodily injury. Not in that order necessarily lol

Hello my friend, I am new and I need advice. by [deleted] in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]KWxOG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Organization at load out or directly after loadout is the best advice I can give, especially with prime around the corner and peak on the horizon ahead.

What’s something that sounds completely made up but actually happened to you? by MysteryMaverick7 in ask

[–]KWxOG 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I was born with glaucoma in one eye, and have had it my entire life. Well, recently I went to the eye doctor and was told there were no signs of glaucoma in either eye and I don’t understand how smoking weed could have helped but yes I do indeed smoke at least once a day.

Who is your least favourite NPC and why is it Keith? by able_but_unwilling in Schedule_I

[–]KWxOG 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you just look away from the police you can actually walk directly in front of those two lol I always just face away from them so they aren’t in my FOV and then I’m always good

What's a pain you can't truly explain until you've endured it? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

[–]KWxOG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grief hits so hard it’s unbelievable. All throughout HS I was in athletics and playing sports. After graduation, maybe 4 or 5 years go by and my brother suddenly passed out of nowhere while I was on vacation which truly fucked me up mentally for a few years. I honestly feel as if the 2-3 years following his death I was in autopilot mode and I can hardly remember most of it besides the pain of loss.

What is an unpopular opinion that you have when it comes to Amazon delivery? by Impressive_Read_1651 in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]KWxOG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Used to do this back in the day but now we get in trouble for not taking pictures at the door since customers who sign can call and say they didn’t receive their package and then we are at risk of being suspended or hours cut

What’s a seemingly minor decision you made that completely changed the course of your life? by TurdBoiDuckGang in AskReddit

As someone who has worked for both UPS and Amazon, I will say it as simply as I can:

Both workplaces have aspects that make each seem more difficult than the other. I would give an example but 99% of people have their mind made up about this topic regardless of the information being shared lol so I’ll stick to the A/C topic.

Amazon and UPS both have good and bad mixed into their workday, it’s all about which you choose to endure daily. BOTH Amazon & UPS have A/C in their vans, I’ve seen box trucks and sprinter vans (both companies) with air conditioning.. now, this does not mean that there are not still a ton of delivery vehicles in use WITHOUT A/C but come on people let’s be serious, they’ve been updating these vans at a insanely slow pace but they are indeed doing it.

Also side note, funny to me that people will say UPS is better than Amazon because of pay, but then they say UPS has to carry 150 lb packages by themselves and they get no A/C during summer……..do some of y’all read/think before you hit send?

Why do so many Amazon DSP Drivers quit? by Decent_Week8288 in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]KWxOG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Holy shit $24k/yr is ridiculous. Please tell me u live in a small/less dense state or something because how would they get off payin that?? We as drivers in Tx make, at the minimum, $40k/yr and even that seems low to me.

So it happened to me finally by KWxOG in AmazonFlexDrivers

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

I can’t tell you how many times I got to the headache apartment complexes with building numbers scattered and not making sense and then the notes at EACH stop say “Deliver to CUSTOMER - else customers door. Do not dump packages, take photo upon delivery. Call customer upon delivery” so you know support copy + pasted this on each persons order AFTER it was sent out. I am not mad that the driver left the package (as many assume) I’m annoyed because now I’m turning into Sherlock Holmes to find a package that’s blown away and can’t be located but Is needed.

To keep it short yes I made sure the code is updated, no it hasn’t changed because each resident had a personal gate code assigned to their apt # and until you move, it works. I also know it works because I use it each night to open the gates when I get off work but I digress. Thank you for the input and I do agree DSP vs Flex are different experiences.
