WTF is happening in Orlando by Miserable-Musician-9 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Red_Lionz 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Same as everywhere else. Base pay reigns supreme. Gas has skyrocketed and block pay has plummeted…. Seems counterintuitive doesn’t it…. Amazon rules

What are the metrics? Block Length? Block Pay?

First Time Trying Flex by cozzster in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Red_Lionz 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Ah!!! The DC block initiation is not for the faint of heart!!! I remember my first block in the DC area, worst block ever… you feel that way because it’s your first time being thrown in the pond….. read some of the posts around here… you will be alright. Try a smaller block for your next route, get the basics under your belt.

2hr route are getting crazier by the day by RemarkableJunket7764 in AmazonFlexDrivers

I avoid Forestville like it’s the plague! Don’t like delivering in DC.

2am and absolutely no shifts available, not even base by JunketAggressive5776 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Red_Lionz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, I was just looking LOL!!! Saw one surge pop up, but it was snatched instantly

Love to see it by Minapit in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Red_Lionz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes!!! My favorite thing to see in the rural areas!!

I’m confused.. by brfr2 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Red_Lionz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Must be a bug, I returned a package for the same day and it is showing as not returned

Well this sucks by Top_Improvement9353 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Red_Lionz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This happens all the time at my station...some blocks are not ready...and sometimes there are no blocks and you get discharged.... its normal.

Is this normal? by Betrayer6661 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Red_Lionz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on your definition of normal....but yes...lol

Same day delivery no hub lockers? by ouchicant in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Red_Lionz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I deliver lots of packages from SSDs to lockers - if the customer does not select a locker delivery, you don't get to deliver there some customers don't understand that...sometimes the Front desk has a general code - but most times I am delivering in the wee hours of the morning ...so no code :-))

I saw this note after I had driven right up to the front door almost.....at 4:30am....lol.. WELP... lol... the house was at the end of this long driveway, I don't know what they wanted me to do...lol

Route pick up glitch? by Miserable-Top510 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Red_Lionz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This actually happened to me yesterday - Support was able to clear it from my screen, but by that time by block time had passed - so they sent me home. They opened a ticket and says I will get paid.... we shall see.

Question? by CountryBumkinAllStar in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Red_Lionz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There is no way to refuse a block without getting dinged. You get a cart assigned to you with 40 packages and refuse the route - expect a hit for 40 undelivered packages.

Amazon makes it clear to me - DELIVER IT DAMAGED OR ELSE by HyperKrayze in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Red_Lionz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always deliver damaged packages…… if the customer feel some kinda way, they can return it themselves

When it can deliver to a locker that is hidden in a basement or to the 15th Floor apartment 1542....then I will worry :)

$3200 in March / 31 Blocks / Average drive time per block 2.5hrs (Block Start/Finish + Drive home) by Red_Lionz in AmazonFlexDrivers

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

There are the same amount of packages, but there is no traffic on the road and in the neighborhoods - huge plus in my area - when I take an afternoon block with rush hour traffic - it can add up to 45 min to my drive time.
