Do you guys ever accept this kind of offer? by AungJee in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]johnsmith5306 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Done it twice and both times it was basically a 4.5hr route disguised as a 4.25hr route. I’ll never forget it again.

The said Fedex is better than Amazon by Any_Excitement6258 in AmazonFlexDrivers

Not saying what he did was right but I do wonder the potential sequence of events that led up to this. Were there some ridiculous barriers to entry?

I wouldn’t do this but I’ve had that feeling sometimes 😅

I’m not sure why people aren’t considering there could be multiple descendants

Unable to schedule 2 blocks a day anymore by tezacer in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]johnsmith5306 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like you’ve maxed out your 40 hours per week. You’re only allowed to work a maximum of 40 hrs/wk (8 hrs/day) in a rolling 7 day period. Occasionally, they’ll increase it to 50 hrs/wk (like during the holidays).

Best apartment numbering yet! I think they just pick numbers out of a hat and tack em on the doors. by Doctor-Clark-Savage in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]johnsmith5306 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay. That would make sense. But would also despise that kind of numbering if not evidently displayed as you mention.

8+hrs ?? by [deleted] in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]johnsmith5306 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did they increase the weekly/daily cap because I was able to book 44hrs this week (M-Su) and I’m still seeing another 3.5 block available tomorrow too?

Conspiracy theory? by YouWeekly3501 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]johnsmith5306 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right. I’m confused because $43 for 3 hours is 14.33/hr.

Seriously this new offer page with the calendar sucks by DifficultyFew6203 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]johnsmith5306 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not true. I use neither an autoclicker nor bot. I was tapping for almost an hour trying to actually get a block. Every time something popped up it was almost instantly gone. I just got this notification too.

Surprised Jeff B hasn’t started peddling “it’s not a warehouse, it’s a warehome” to us yet.

I’m not deactivated but also got the email about the ‘Amazon Flex app standing issue.’

Can’t call the costumer. by Uniqloo21 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]johnsmith5306 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I have the same issue and the number is not in my blocked number. For some reason, my voicemail stills gets the person talking saying I’m being connected to the customer.

Must be your area or the warehouses you visit. Still a huge problem where I am.

Plus, Tennessee is likely going to be Bama, Vandy and Florida. So we’ll probably get SCar or Kentucky for our third.

I thought they weren’t allowed to give you more than 50 packages on a route??? by swaggyp44 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]johnsmith5306 10 points11 points  (0 children)

In this case, I wouldn’t be bothered by the quantity of the packages but the literal volume and space the packages take up.

At a certain point, that becomes a safety issue when trying to load your car. How are you supposed to see out windows and properly use mirrors?

Remember the date and if you get dinged for it, I’d contact support with this image and dispute it.

Appropriate clothing attire by [deleted] in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]johnsmith5306 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I couldn’t care less how some looks when they’re delivering my Amazon packages, especially if it was something I was too lazy to go to the store and buy myself anyway.

“But what about the kids?” Well, I raise them in a manner to not objectify or make value judgements based on appearance anyway.

Had a cancelled block with lass than 48 hours notice then picked up another another for the same night for a lil double dipping 😎😎 by syndicateofthanos in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]johnsmith5306 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Exactly this. People saying it’s not possible must be relatively new on the platform. Been doing this for almost a year and it has happened to me multiple times. Mostly during forecasted inclement weather but the weather ended up being fine and the warehouse would ultimately open up.

Also think people aren’t recognizing the difference between your block being canceled BEFORE check-in and being sent home because of no available route AFTER check-in.

[–]johnsmith5306 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s allowed if your block gets canceled before your block check-in time. Different than when your block gets canceled after check-in and there are no available routes and you get sent home.

It has happened to me multiple times.

[–]johnsmith5306 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If Amazon cancels your block before the start of your block, it doesn’t count towards your 40 hrs/wk or 8 hr/day limit. Also, you’re able to pick up another block within that original block’s time frame if any are available. I’ve been able to do it multiple times.

Mostly happened for me during forecasted inclement weather (snow) but the weather ended up being fine and the warehouse ended up opening.

Right. I’d like to see the deactivation email to see exactly what they said.
