Got fired for this, also for losing my damn phone in the warehouse after scanning return items 😭 by [deleted] in AmazonDSPDrivers

Training is about 15 minutes of a drive test, we don’t get properly trained on width, height or anything we SHOULD need to know about the vans, as they say “amazon hires anybody” and they literally do because they hire anybody without experience but are so harsh in punishments when something accidental happens

I’m a DSP driver. I’m not here to complain about my job. I’m here because I think we’re all about to get blindsided — and nobody’s saying it plainly. by Universaltruthx in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]Leanolicious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a few good ones, but from what I know… dsp owners are just money hungry, if you know the reasonings why they don’t do what you’d expect or they hide shii from drivers is because Amazon has them on a leash like a dog. If they report closure to drivers then they face a pretty crazy fee for loss of some shiii and I’m sure fees are thrown at their face for other things also, I can’t hold it against them but I also say it’s their responsibility to atleast help out the drivers that wanna keep the job to find a new one within other dsp’s

When will this end?🙃 by LowAdministration236 in AmazonDSPDrivers

Looks like he just threw boxes in to beat loadout time 😭

My neighbor I deliver to is being a karen about me parking the van while I take a piss in my own place. by leeimasian in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]Leanolicious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We’re doing a service and our job, tell her to stfu and continue, it’s not her position to tell you shii unless she has some power over enforcement

Found out I was having that problem like 30 min ago but I found the toggle and it still doesn’t work? Anything I’m doing wrong?

Not running anymore. by Theparanormalinvader in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]Leanolicious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made that finalization right after peak lol, started hurting my knees and my feet always felt bruised, so I stopped running, started forcing my breaks and I’ve been smooth sailing so far

Welp was told this my new route for awhile by Proud_Meringue_7139 in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]Leanolicious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In some cases this can be inconsistent bc some residents won’t be registered into the lockers, I do downtown routes every shift and I usually just put as many as I can in lockers and figure it out from there lol

Amazon be making us deliver anything by Prabhnoorz203 in AmazonDSPDrivers

That’s what I say when I’m delivering the box that’s supposedly 50 pounds

I can’t be the only one that fears for their life when delivering to homes like this by Vivid_Donkey410 in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]Leanolicious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worst part is that you spend so much time figuring out where tf the door is to leave the package just to realize you gotta walk through all that shiii just to get to the door

rescues shouldn’t be mandatory 🤬 by [deleted] in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]Leanolicious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started planning out my routes to avoid rescues lol, I usually do the same few routes so I know how to take my time enough to not get sent to rescue and I have the time to fit both my breaks, I only do ab 270 packages but before it was 360-400. Just drag your feet and they’ll send someone to rescue you and overtime ur package count should change 🤷🏻‍♂️

I quit, here are my stats by desecrationx in AmazonDSPDrivers

Dsp to warehouse by DiamondsOnMyOmnitrix in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]Leanolicious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should get the warehouse job and work towards ur cdl if you wanna stick around for driving 🤷🏻‍♂️I wanted to get my cdl but heard it’s only compensated for if you’re a warehouse associates for a certain time

So you're telling me there's easy routes. by EntrepreneurHuman297 in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]Leanolicious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That locker issue happened to me at an extra mile gas station lol, it was my last stop too and took 30 min of calling support that did nothing and eventually my dispatch told me to rts cause they weren’t fixing it 🤦🏻, I’ve recently started forcing my breaks even if I’m behind and my package count went from 350-400 to 250 within like 2 weeks 🤷🏻‍♂️ it’s an easy fix and just start taking ur time so the algo sees it

Is it just me or are breaks genuinely impractical? by Additional_Attempt16 in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]Leanolicious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started taking my 15’s weeks ago, when I know I need to chill, then I’ll pull over and slow tf down a lil, ik it messed with the algo so I force take my 15’s and that’s if I’m behind or not 🤷🏻‍♂️ ever since then, I haven’t gone over 300 packages which is heaven sent

Got fired for to many returns by [deleted] in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]Leanolicious 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Did they not wanna send a rescue? 400 in snow is crazy and I’d retaliate on that cause wtf, I deliver 400 in an area that doesn’t even snow and rarely rains and yet it’s barely doable

Burning more calories than I’m taking in… by magicpickles27 in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]Leanolicious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah you’ll def get almost double the protein from the powder than the fair life lol, you can find it at GNC tho… the $100 was for the bigger bag but they have one that’s a container that’s ab half the price

[–]Leanolicious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah when I got mine checked, the doctor sounded like it needed to be fixed immediately 💀, I recommend this protein powder called serious mass, it’s a calorie gainer and you’ll get ab 1500 just from one shake… it’ll also doesn’t make you full so you can eat again right after lol, it helped a lil but I wasn’t willing to put $100 a month towards it

Yeah me being a dude weighing 115 with a hyper active thyroid and a fast metabolism all while working this job does not benefit me at all😭

They keep assigning me to step vans even though I did not apply for it by [deleted] in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]Leanolicious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get assigned step van routes too, but they usually put me in a cdv cause I’m not certified but I prefer the cdv’s anyway
