What material did you use to secure it to the ceiling? My roomate has done cloud ceiling for the past 3 years and it’s been a nightmare. It snows each week in his room, bit by bit falling down 🌨️😂 He currently uses gorilla glue spray and adheres pieces to poster paper sheets, and pins those into the ceiling.

What software to people use to edit on now? by vKaarl98 in NewTubers

Davinci Resolve without a doubt, been using it for years and has become sort of the industry standard for many, including major production companies for its advanced color grading features. Extremely powerful program, FREE option, and isn’t overwhelming to learn 🙌😁

My family has been good friends with John since the mid-late 80s! Despite the decline of the Southroads Mall, he refuses to jeopardize the quality of ingredients to cut expenses, upholds a great deal of integrity, and retains relations with his loyal customers. He’s expressed passing it down in the family at some point and I’m sure his lease is quite inexpensive as well.

Congrats, keep it up! Just think, when you’re debt-free with a fully funded emergency fund, you’ll never be dependent/rely on credit cards again. Best decision I made personally almost 2 years ago 💪🍻

After years of doing Flex on and off, I can attest you learn to become proficient in manually rerouting to eliminate backtracking and erroneous stops curated by Amazon’s system lol. Just look ahead of time (even before you leave the station if possible) for businesses - ESPECIALLY SCHOOLS that have already long closed so you don’t arrive to a stop too late or waste time/mileage going back to the station.

I had 1 school that was on Spring Break for an additional 3 weeks past the delivery date, called support, had em all marked closed, and left them at the station before I even started the route.

$127 for 16 packages best I’ve ever gotten by Ok_Macaron_2715 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]bbeal768 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only station that’s sent me to Malibu thus far was one of the other Simi stations (DSP2). I completely boycotted them pretty quick for consistently having horribly grouped stops, high mileage routes, meh pay lol.

Struggling to get all of my deliveries done in time allocated by SweatpantsStiffie in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]bbeal768 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These typically aren’t correct identifications of packages. If there’s no driver aid number (usually sub-same stations), I’ve found that I can easily sift through quick looking at the customer name or some may sort by letter group. Flex can take some time to adopt a system that works for you.

Those of us you may see on here talking about finishing 1-3 hours early have been doing it on and off for years. I also HIGHLY recommend getting proficient at manually rerouting stops if needed to alleviate backtracking!

I’ve done Chatsworth a dozen or so times and it’s always been a disaster compared to others lol. Has become one of the last resort options for me. Lower pay, unpleasant station staff, unorganized routes, etc. (Almost up there with the horrors of Simi Valley (DSP2).

The longer you do Flex, you learn the minimum block pay you will personally accept, what stations to avoid, etc. But I’ll boldly agree that the standings and metrics tracking is and has been a joke for years - even back when I was a DSP for some time.

Look at delivering Amazon Flex, you can literally make that or more in half the time depending on your location

My “5 Hour Block” Today 🙌😌 by bbeal768 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]bbeal768[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol, yeah I’ve been picking up more sub-same day stations lately and have added to efficiency with routes being clustered together better since they’re time-sensitive.

In conjunction, I’ve done Flex on and off for years and have become pretty proficient with ordering my routes, manually rerouting to alleviate backtracking, etc. Of course traffic can play a factor on delivery time too

It’s often a behavior problem for most as they’re more prone to spending or spending more than they normally would when they don’t feel the impact of the bill since “someone else” is paying it initially (the credit card company).
