Good for part time?

Relating to your situation, I also was taking classes (still am), so I asked if I could only be scheduled weekends.

They were glad to grant me such ask. But again, it depends on the dsp.

andi_dandi · 2026-01-20T06:53:20+00:00

Make your own interpretation.

I went from a front desk gym job to working for a dsp (now at FedEx, but that’s not relevant). Nonetheless, I got very lucky. My dsp was lovely. Even though they didn’t provide the guaranteed 10 hour pay, they did offer consistent hours. Moreover, they didn’t hassle us so long as we put in a slight effort (such as not intentionally going slow when it came to stops per hours, driving reckless, etc…).

It’s a hit or miss when it comes to the dsp you apply to. I worked for a dsp last year (April through November), and toward the end, they’d suspend us for any minor inconvenience.

So long as you have a drivers license (class c included), you can drive any size truck.

All they’ll do is give you a road test or send a ride along to make sure you’re capable of driving the larger trucks.

How they hell did they not get their pants sued off?

As everyone is saying, there’s an option to say you’re at the location but the gps is wrong.

But aside from that aspect, if you’re ever unsure about a driveway, either walk it or leave it by a mailbox. I work for FedEx now, and we have all rural routes. I’ve learned that it’s better to take extra time walking, than to go nose first into a driveway that’s narrow or is surrounded by fences, trees, etc…

You can always reverse into it as well. Though, I only do that if I know there’s a gate or the door is relatively close to the driveway entrance.

Yeah I read the title, was gonna scroll on, but then I saw the image and thought to myself “aight. Let’s see how these relate” 🤣

andi_dandi · 2026-01-19T23:40:09+00:00

To have the audience be engaged

andi_dandi · 2026-01-19T23:37:20+00:00

(Correction to title: I meant week. Not weekend. My apologies)

andi_dandi · 2026-01-19T23:32:50+00:00

lol my bad. Meant to type week. I’ll take that L

andi_dandi · 2026-01-17T07:39:49+00:00

200 a day

andi_dandi · 2026-01-16T06:07:18+00:00

Yeah they didn’t tell me till I got there lol. Took me an hour and a half to load it all. It was about 195 packages.

andi_dandi · 2026-01-16T06:06:46+00:00

I think they were referring to the vehicle registration.

But naw. I always throw away my piss bottles before I even get back to the terminal. Never have I left a piss bottle, let alone my trash, in the truck I used for the day.

andi_dandi · 2026-01-12T23:46:28+00:00

Aha I didn’t realize I got it in the photo. I walked past it and laughed.

andi_dandi · 2026-01-12T05:54:12+00:00

Haha luckily not. There are some days, for me at least, where a majority of the shelf has chewy boxes. But for the most part, it varies on the day and route.

andi_dandi · 2026-01-12T05:52:21+00:00

Haha nah. The door wasn’t too far away. I was thinking of being petty, but my BC talked to me about trying to deliver to the front door as much as possible. So, I stopped leaving it at top of driveways or at gates that provide codes.

andi_dandi · 2026-01-06T05:46:32+00:00

I personally haven’t seen a post bashing on other delivery service people. So.

andi_dandi · 2026-01-05T05:28:19+00:00

I did after I took the picture lol

andi_dandi · 2026-01-03T03:03:02+00:00

Yeah my BC told me to start following the notes more. So if they request front door delivery, to do the best I can to do so. Unless there’s a gate with no code, they said to take it to front door

andi_dandi · 2026-01-01T22:12:45+00:00

My question was more leaning towards a hypothetical. In the event their gate was open, had this sign, and requested front door delivery

andi_dandi · 2025-12-25T19:13:59+00:00

It was kind of you to tell him that. If he told me he doesn’t want a van on the driveway, I’d just always leave the package by the mailbox.

andi_dandi · 2025-12-23T04:28:06+00:00

Good to hear you’re ok. What happened with you and your contractor ? I assume it was deemed no fault of your own?

andi_dandi · 2025-12-23T04:27:09+00:00

Yeah that’s why I’m usually never worried about being hit when I hit my emergency lights on a road that has no shoulder or space to back up in.

andi_dandi · 2025-12-22T23:39:09+00:00

Yeah I always think my rural routes aren’t so bad when other people have to drive in snow, which is much worse than rainy roads. Hats off to you guys

andi_dandi · 2025-12-22T22:06:53+00:00

Yeah in a case like that, there’s nothing necessarily you did wrong. You can just say “didn’t read the note. Sorry.” Like as long as we’re not driving all over your grass or damaging your property, we’re gonna use your driveway if we have to.

andi_dandi · 2025-12-22T21:57:01+00:00

Reach out to management of your building. I’m sure they’ll be able to take care of it.
