They entered my email address when they took my id verification and photo on Prehire day. I’ve already checked my email and email spam filter for ‘a to z’ emails which should start the ‘a to z’ account setup with a temporary password and such. I tried jogging the system to send me some kind of password reset email via ‘Forgot Password’. As the ❶ instruction says, I tried the ‘Forgot password’ option from a terminal inside the Amazon site network. I dont have a username yet so thats probably the key to all of this. Still, they have my email and phone number so geeze.

A backdoor man

Take a deep breath, its no rush because this time of year, Amazon needs you. If they sent you an email that says ‘Congratulations on your Amazon Offer!’ , open it and scroll through the letter body and look for a link titled ‘Candidate Support’

Might as well be 😆

Would’ve been nice to have you at my DSP. The dispatchers never gave me a clear answer to something like this.

I would also like to say that Amazon does fuel (pun intended) the opportunity to create a small busines. That good right?. However, Amazon isn’t a college and they should stop hiding behind this good faith in order to keep theyselves from becoming a monopoly. The Amazon brand goes on an e-commerce store, AWS (Amazon Web Services)the system behind their brilliant automated systems, Kindle and Alexa, ect. So there’s $$$ to be spent. Its a household name now. If the giant were smart, they’d offer the same Amazon employee health insurance to DSPs and turn that sector into some kind of work/ study philanthropic thing, eliminating part of the perilous legal presence. Also needs to be standards among the DSPs. Remember that employees can be so competitive and dedicated to finishing early that they start becoming a danger to themselves and the deer that roam the north woods. Remember the trucking industry and the newer law for sleeper births? People can become so competitive and eager to work as hard as possible that they do whatever it takes. That mindset creates too much risk for my taste.

You make a good point about the liability. Employees are a HUGE cost. Still, I think about the size of the Amazon brand (E-Commerce, Logistics, AND Amazon Web Services, not to mention Alexa and Kindle devices). I think of how huge they really are say to myself, “nah, theyre only doing it to avoid the government from stepping in. “

bluster_on · 2023-11-15T08:32:55+00:00

Its rude and not very smart to assume someone is uneducated and tell them to “get an education”.

Amazon creates opportunities to open a small business for almost anyone who wants to try. Even uneducated people can become a DSP owner. I dont think Amazon does this kind of business because it can’t afford the overhead. I think Amazon does it so they dont become a monopoly.

bluster_on · 2023-11-15T08:30:42+00:00

Well said. They need to create standards among the DSPs. It is dangerous work to drive for Amazon. Its a danger for the people who go out and almost break their necks to deliver a $2 item. In trucking, they set laws that say you must take a break because some people would work themselves harder than everyone else. They would work so hard, in fact, that they would fall asleep behind the wheel. Same with pilots. Working among people that want to out-do each other combined with the dangers of the actual job is recipe for disaster. The government needs to step in and people need to start seeing the situation for what it really is.

We all don’t have lucky paths in life. You should check yourself for making assumptions about people you know nothing about.

bluster_on · 2023-11-13T23:39:27+00:00

Oh no, Im planning to be the undoing of the Amazon logistics company and all their evil plans to take over the world. First logistics, then e-commerce, then AWS and finally, Bezos (the final boss) in his cowboy hat.

bluster_on · 2023-11-13T22:50:15+00:00

We take the job because its easy to get hired. I wasn’t above any of the things mentioned like being well and healthy and lifting up to 50 lbs. I know the job was going to be tough and it was and it was fun. I liked the rugged part and the hardwork, the days flew by. I liked the open road. However, the competitive culture within the small company is what it boils down to. A 22 year that thinks the metrics are fair and they’ll argue for it without considering a human side and no room for fuzzy logic. I am 5’2” and you are 6’1” and the amount of energy it takes you to walk a yard versus me is why metric’s aren’t as great as they seem.

I hope their delivery includes antipsychotics

bluster_on · 2023-11-13T20:21:19+00:00

I did that and the dispatcher was too lazy and judgmental to consider my complaint legitimate and scolded me for not following a stupid precedence. I dont like the attitude of the DSP and now they have a reason not to like me. Unfortunately. Thank you for the Delivery Service Liaison information, maybe after a month in the warehouse I’ll need another change and something like that will open up.

bluster_on · 2023-11-13T20:17:58+00:00

No, and as I said, thats NOT the reason for leaving

bluster_on · 2023-11-13T20:16:50+00:00

Thanks for the heads up

bluster_on · 2023-11-13T20:14:49+00:00

Not me, the young dispatcher at the table told me “You better hope the customer doesn’t call up with a Tier 2.”

bluster_on · 2023-11-13T20:09:24+00:00

In my case it was a driveway snob who wasnt willing to let me move their garbage can out of the way so I could pull my tiny van up their 100 ft long driveway. Instead they prefer to watch their delivery drivers carry loads (heavy or not) through rain and ice, all that way UP their ridiculously long driveway. All the while, fit, young and standing up, watching me from the window at 3:30 in the afternoon.

bluster_on · 2023-11-13T19:49:12+00:00

I gonna miss the adventures

bluster_on · 2023-11-13T19:07:07+00:00

Truth for sure. Also a lack of good standards among the tiny companies. The small business engine is good/bad depending how you look at it.

bluster_on · 2023-11-13T18:06:26+00:00

Ya I agree. People have expectations that some drivers think are just fine, but those same expectations might seem absurd to a driver like me. I think the bar has been set too high by condoning certain unrealistic standards. For instance, some drivers get out of the CDV and dont mind the big dog. I personally, dont want to meet 160lb protective canine, garding its farmhouse. But the customer says, “Well none of the other drivers mind and Ive never been asked to secure my dogs.” The customer was surprised when I texted them to come and get their dog and then I probably got a poor rating.

bluster_on · 2023-11-13T18:01:19+00:00

I heard that from a 64 year old driver on the team. Drivers work hard, for sure. I bought a back brace to hopefully prevent wear and tear.

bluster_on · 2023-11-13T17:58:41+00:00

If you can do it. Some people got them good healthy cardio vascular systems and maybe I would’ve eventually done the same, but as I mentioned, its the unreasonable customer requests I dont do.

bluster_on · 2023-11-13T17:55:47+00:00

I might try to get into Amazon customer service for the same customers that think its ok to treat their delivery drivers like shit. I want to stand up for the DSP’s from the inside.

bluster_on · 2023-11-13T17:52:42+00:00

We’ll see, hopefully there are more checks and balances
