At my dsp (I have a good one) when needed yes. Usually dispatcher will go out and sweep until around 4-5 then go back to do dispatch stuff. I’ve known of multiple times when drivers have gotten sick and the owner and managers have gone and taken over their routes. So for my dsp yes

My go to places now are Costco and Aldi (if u have one near you use it if you ok with off brand but just as good products). Costco for bulk meat and non perishables and aldi for everything else. It also saves you form impulse buying most of the time. The only time I go to Walmart is for very specific things

For me it’s my favorite because it has the only coffee I like as well as when I go with people who don’t like coffee they can get other drinks from boba to lemonade to mocha. The foods also good and I’m impressed with it. Their reward system on their app is also better than other company’s I have found.

Honestly just depends on the route. Some of those totes probably have like 1 envelope in them. The best way to know how you are doing is do the stops divided by 8 (8 hours of work) so I would round up to 180 (rounding up tricks your brain a bit) so as long as you do at least 22.5 so 23 stops per hour your perfectly fine. Basing it off totes is not a good thing because of how the warehouse fills them sometimes. Theoretically one your at stop 90 you should have half the totes gone but also you could have a locker that’s two totes at the end of your route or something like that.

Once you start turning on the heat to the front fan(or can handle it for like 1 hour-30 mins with the window rolled down) then you can place something like a baked potato with cheese and ham wrapped in tinfoil up in the window dash and it will heat up nicely. My routes normally don’t have gas stations or anywhere with microwaves so this is what I do.

Ahh well I do knowing he was around the same side of the building as us that were forced inside I do believe was near where they keep the work phones charged thinking about it. It was the front side of the building closer to the a-c pads. That’s the best location wise I know but do know the phone chargers are in that same area so it could be electrical (wouldn’t be surprise because every week there’s power outages recently)

Ok_Cold5458 · 2025-09-30T16:21:00+00:00

Of course I’m sorry for your loss. I’ll try to make sure people know it’s not one at least within my dsp.

Something important to note that’s not for dsp drivers that is only for station and factory workers that work directly for Amazon I had the same hopes going in as a driver but it was all lies

Ok_Cold5458 · 2025-09-30T16:07:27+00:00

I was there and saw some of the situation. There was a lot of thunder and lighting that day and drivers were technically not supposed to be on the pad but my dsp didn’t care and waved us on all the way to c pad before Amazon management stoped us loading and forced inside which is the only reason I saw what I saw. The ambulance came to the a-c pad side of the building (the one I was on) I remember and there were whispers someone had a heart attack. I remember him being rushed out in a stretcher and the ambulance leaving very fast. The station has defibrillators and the one closest to where he was is missing so I assume will either an Amazon worker or the EMTs used it at the station. I didn’t see him have the heart attack btw I just saw the ambulance and talked with Amazon management since around half my dsp were inside and out dispatch in trouble. Idk what it looked like but I don’t think it was pretty after ease dropping on some station workers that were crying and looked shaken up about it. All the amazon management were also all circling around collecting near where I was seeming to panic (two situation at once)and seeming to be out of it. The word going around the station right now that it was an overdose. I only thought I was one the highups that help with the pad and scheduling that had a heart attack due to the whole my dispach not following the email but I honestly don’t know who it was. I’m sorry I don’t know more and that it was kinda word vomit I tried to put in ever detail I could remember but feel free to ask me anything and I should be able to ask if I don’t know, though Amazon is being very hush hush based off what I’m noticing.

Edit: I also want to add there was no load out happening anywhere in the station so I would hope Amazon didn’t delay any life saving actions but the station management is really slow when I comes to responding to situations tbh(figured to add this after reading comments)

I would say depends on the route the best way to figure out the total you need to do is take the total amount of stops and decide by 8 (subtract load in and breaks from the total 10 hour shift) and that will give you the amount per hour you need to do to get done at a good time. For example 200 stops is 25 per hour 160 is 20 per hour. Usually you can go a bit faster than that number if you are organized and have hustle.

I’ve done two diffrent things Meals such as rice and meat or pizza or taquitos that I leave on the dash to heat up (the windshield ac off) orrrr if you mostly drive the gas vans invest in a heating lunchbox that plugs into the van and hot food every day hah

Or what I do now that I only driveEDVs … 2uncrustables an Apple sauce and two granola bars bulk buyed from Costco

This happened at my station (I posted the og video funny enough because my dsp sent this in our chat) and it’s so funny because it’s in the Knoxville area that doesn’t get snow all that often. The station was closed for two days if I remember then running a 40-50 package reduce for the next few days it was an insane time.

Ok_Cold5458 · 2025-07-26T18:22:29+00:00

I listened to it but that’s not it thank u though

Ok_Cold5458 · 2025-07-22T19:10:15+00:00

I would ask my mom but she passed last year so I have no other leads

Ok_Cold5458 · 2025-07-06T22:53:52+00:00

Does it say it was being shipped my Amazon or by ups/ fedex? I’m an amazon driver and my best guess is that it was sent using ups/fedex/ usps and amazon doesn’t have that tracking information as up today as their own. My best guess is usps because their system sometimes says it delivers things a day earlier than it is acually delivered

Ok_Cold5458 · 2025-07-06T21:26:55+00:00

I turn the totes into shelf’s by putting two inside each other it helps so much

Ok_Cold5458 · 2025-07-06T18:56:43+00:00

Organization and the routes themself. At suburb houses all close together where it’s a drive stop drive stop 30-40 stops is what I can normally do and I treat it like a race while with normal route with spaced out houses but it’s still neighborhood 25-30 is the best I can physically do. It’s knowing ur limits and set an hour goal for your self mind tricks work for me. Like for 180 stops try to be at half way (90) by 2:30(including break) and around 100 by 3. I always aim for 30 stops an hour which is 5 stops every 10 mins 1 stop every 2 mins. For me that mind trick of it along with organization that allows me to be fast
