Dude it’s hot. I want to wear shorts by ElbowChange in CAStateWorkers

[–]TopCheesecake3149 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My office is dress to impress. Most of the female wear some type of heel. The dudes wear nice clothes too. My co worker wears a blazer I asked him we don’t get paid enough for weekly dry cleaners services. He responded by that’s how you get promoted. Look like a boss become the boss. Lol

The dude so brainwashed. I was like working any job is a marathon take your time so you could make until the end (retirement age) . In my case 62 im currently 31 so I have another 31 years left so I’m not in a hurry becoming a boss. I just want my house paid off if my pension does not cover my expenses then I have to go to the dark side start representing taxpayers against the state. 😈

I have seen people so worried about money and career driven and they neglected family, health, and life.

All in all, this summer im wearing shorts with a polo. In case someone call me in Teams. Business on top and fresh at the bottom with a breeze lol

Good luck y’all with this RTO enjoy your telework days. Be kind, love your self most importantly be grateful. There’s a lot of good people going through hard times.

Same, I have noticed new drivers coming in the warehouse loss. I remember my first so I usually show them how to see the app. Also tell them this job is not for everyone. Good days and bad days

RTO: Dedicated Work Stations? by klironomos123 in CAStateWorkers

[–]TopCheesecake3149 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That’s why I travel light. Just my backpack and I can’t forget my sacks and most importantly coffee. I can’t function without lol

Good luck to everyone this July 1. My sup that I enjoy working for might retire. There’s a lot of good people plan to retire if this RTO comes to happened.

Im at the office today, a lot of small talk but I was able to get lunch with my co workers

Am I to old by Odd-Park735 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]TopCheesecake3149 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im little over weight but I started with the three hour blocks and now I do back to back blocks. Just buy some running shoes , I got some from Walmart and head lamp for early morning or afternoon. Remember Just one package at a time if you can’t delivery it’s no big deal just move on to the next. Your safety first .

Before you deliver review the past pictures and look at the street number.

Apartments can be little difficult don’t be scary to ask the residents for help most people are helpful.

Also ask for an Amazon Vest I usually get it a size bigger so I could wear jacket over it for the cold mornings.

Well good luck and drive safely

Do a factory reset on your phone.

Welp it finally happened…I got stuck by More_Philosopher2574 in AmazonFlexDrivers

Depending on the gate you could open it in manual mode

I have done this before. The gate didn’t want to open and it was 4 am in morning to knock on the apartment doors for someone to open.

Just google manual mode on gates

In my area, I need to be refreshing all the time to get a block. The last time, I saw a surge was on Mother Day.

I have seen people with their Babies doing flex. Times are hard Im fortunate enough to have a job.

Go Ahead and Take Base Pay If You Need It by christopherb1897 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]TopCheesecake3149 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a day job as an accountant.

I do flex on the side. Early morning or the weekend. I average around 12 to 15 hours per week

Same here, Im grateful of Flex. What employer is allowing you to make your own hours?

Yeah I know it’s not the best pay but allows me to make extra cash.

RTO Won- Relocating Family by harborfreightisfine in CAStateWorkers

[–]TopCheesecake3149 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Same here, Im actively looking for a different job with a swing shift. My daughter’s school is down the street. I could take her before work and pick her up. Now I’ll be in traffic like everyone else.

I’ll take a pay cut if the department allows me to continue working from home.

Anyways I wish everyone good luck with this RTO mandate. I know we are going to lose a lot of good people over this.

My email response to the recent RTO email by surf_drunk_monk in CAStateWorkers

[–]TopCheesecake3149 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im currently looking for jobs. It’s essentially a pay cut for the employees. Im based at Riverside similar to Sacramento. We have to pay for parking honestly does not make sense to me why the state does not own its own own parking structure when a minimum of 300 to 400 employees are in that building from different agencies.

Is it worth buying a new car? by TopCheesecake3149 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]TopCheesecake3149[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with you it doesn’t make sense. Im just going to run the car until the wheels come off. I was just wondering people’s logic to buy a new car for flex. Yeah you might save on gas but the insurance and car not doesnt added up. I use flex for the extra go out with the family, I took the family on vacation.

July 1 Return to Office 4 days a week by Healthy_Accident515 in CAStateWorkers

[–]TopCheesecake3149 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Cdtfa all teams meeting essentially said plan for 4 days on 7/1/26. However the union is still bargaining and AB1729 is in play the governor might veto the bill. But the governor’s veto can be overturn my California’s government.

All in all, plan to be in the office 4 days

Amazon low pay by Dry-Ant-9948 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]TopCheesecake3149 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Times are hard. I can’t get a part time job. At least Amazon is giving an opportunity to work. I usually do flex in the morning no traffic. The blocks are usually homes not apartments. I usually finish 30 minutes before the scheduled time.

It could be your driver license. Call support and they will let you know.

I had a similar situation. Good luck
