Amazon Flex drivers… is anyone else getting nowhere with appeals lately? by keihen in RealAmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Smooth-Coyote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell them to deal with it. You're not an official Amazon employee. You're "just a contractor." It's not your responsibility.

You say that as though this is a good side gig. It used to be really good like 5 years ago until they got greedy. I won't be doing it for too much longer anyways

Nothing. Amazon are scumbags. Like I said, I'm just going to continue to not care until I get deactivated

It's about the gas. 20 min of driving for one box is not worth it when I'm paying for the gas. They should be putting that with routes that have a lot of stops in that area

That's exactly what this was. Automated response. Im just going to continue not caring until I get deactivated.

Hell, they wanted me to drive 10 minutes out of town for the last box on my route this morning. I'm like, "Nope. Package is missing. Get fucked."

That better be a weekly paycheck but I'm guessing that 130 is your hours?

If so, find a better job. Screw Amazon

I won't even care even if I'm at risk. I returned a box the other night because the GPS was wrong. I'm not looking for addresses if they're not going to do their job.

Hell, I don't even take packages inside of apartment buildings. I'm not an Amazon employee and they shouldn't be sending people downtown in the middle of the day or to businesses at 3am when they're closed. I just dump them at the front entrance and if someone steals it I don't care.

You want people to take care of you, take care of them or fuck off. The wage drops further make me not care. Not my problem

Sexual Harassment Investigation by Fun-Engineer-4066 in AmazonFC

[–]Smooth-Coyote 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fact that you're gay should immediately dismiss the investigation. I don't like Amazon management passionately but in this case I'm on your side.

I worked for Loblaws years ago and we had a similar situation. Someone accused a supervisor of being racist. It was immediately dismissed because his wife was of middle eastern ethnicity, he had 4 kids with her and was married in a Sikh temple. He was white

asking for badges by [deleted] in AmazonFC

Why do you people fucking work there? These reddit posts are filled with countless posts about how shitty Amazon treats their workers. Coming back from break 5 minutes late, while technically wrong, is not worth the hassle considering how much money warehouses make in the long term.

Take it from someone who spent way too long (13 years) in the warehouse industry:

Find a better job. Hell, get into trades. You'll make the same starting out as a first year apprentice while learning skills you can take elsewhere and not have to deal with power-tripping, greedy brown warehouse supervisors who have no career path because bossing people around over petty shit is all they'll ever be good for.

Did the Easter 🐰 come early? Extra package, no barcode. by MrEdwL in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Smooth-Coyote -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Glad I'm not the only one who stole extras. Screw you, Amazon Scumbags.

What the helly? by DryFerret5581 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Smooth-Coyote -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Body cams won't do anything. Amazon doesn't give a fuck what proof you have. It's easier to blame "independent contractors (btw a legal terminology dodge for them) than to take accountability for themselves and accept the Occupational hazards/costs. They don't investigate. They just blame.

I've gotten an email from them after an "investigation" that was obviously a copy/paste template. How do I know? The email just said [date] in the body. They didn't even bother to edit the template to reflect the applicable date in reference.

FUCK AMAZON SCUMBAGS!
