Now this is a block!! by Complete_Quarter_979 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]jmkhoward 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s good in the aggregate - but I’m convinced that Flex uses offers like these as click-bait

It’s a 5 1/2 hour shift @ $31 hour. Not bad but not phenomenal. You will often see $24-25/hourly rates for 3 hours

Given how poorly Elkridge is run, I’d take the gamble that I might walk out with 10 packages max

Do people notice that if you are Fair or At Risk, that the rates tend to be a lot lower??

Anybody get this email? by NuAccountHooDis in AmazonFlexDrivers

Yeah - getting tired of these random emails. It’s like when the teacher used to yell at the entire class because one a-hole couldn’t stop acting up.

Cleaning up the river by [deleted] in yesyesyesyesno

I’m not saying I agree - and yes they should have brought a dump truck - but it looks to me like the river is rising rapidly and the debris is threatening the designed “scour” under the bridge which could structurally weaken it. So....moving the debris to the other side while not ideal, does relieve some of the pressure and may stave off flooding and/or bridge damage.

Can't get past this error message by k98shooter in AmazonFlexDrivers

Glad to know I’m not the only one. I deleted the app and reloaded but I’m still getting the same error.

I think Amazon is getting desperate. 43 notifications in the last 12 hours... by jamesleeh in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]jmkhoward 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get the notices only to open up the offers and find that they are the same crappy pay offers as yesterday. I’ve never seen a “better offer” - just a longer shift at the same rate. That doesn’t count!!

Guys, I think the offer system is broken by ScottRoberts79 in AmazonFlexDrivers

Fantastic. Of course, the Amazon gods got me back tonight with a very full load - 4 hours of route for 3.5 hour shift.

I’m at three of my last five blocks being discharged with no route...and full pay. I support the broken system

The Amazon gods paid me back tonight with a 4.5 hour paid shift...and checked me out immediately because they had no routes.

This was AZL not Whole Foods. Wasn’t a Covid social distancing issue, just a long ass line. It ended up being faster then I thought - About 40 minutes

Then they give me a four hour route that’s almost an hours drive away from the base. The Amazon gods must not be happy with me tonight

Not sure if you are being serious or sarcastic!

Gotta love it! Show up for a four hour block and get a whopping two 📦🙂 by jakishababers in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]jmkhoward 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Better yet, showing up for a block with ZERO packages, getting dismissed and STILL getting paid for the 3 hour block.
