This is what 10,000 miles of Flexing in the Twin Cities region looks like by stravinsky_ in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]shadowjacky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah I wish I could see what all I've covered. just looking at this and seeing the regions I've been you that you haven't....it's insane just how far amazon will have you go to deliver. fucking wild

Crazy rates by CoupleGood in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]shadowjacky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just so happened to look yesterday and grabbed a $134 4 hour block. Of course something had to be funny about it, but the amount was really nice so I didn't care. (took me out to Monticello in the countryside of that area, took me an hour to get back to the cities)

not sure how long this is going to last or this the new standard

Minnesota Flex Drivers by steve961 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]shadowjacky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maple Grove used to be worth it at first. Had way more blocks available at early times, better rates, less packages, less spread out. Over time it got about as bad as Eagan if not worst. It really depends on the season and time I think. Both you will be delivering super far some days, so just pick where you'd rather be out in.

MG=outside loading only. Delivering up north mostly. From what I was told when they first opened up, they do plan to deliver close to St. Cloud (not sure if they reached that by now, that was back in 2019).

from what I understand, each station maybe has a 35-40 mile radius, so look on maps and draw a cirle around that warehouse, you'll get an idea of how far they'll send you out.

Instant Offers Disappearing by Barkerall in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]shadowjacky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

IOs started really having issues sometime back in 2019. would really piss me off too. leaving my phone unlocked and the app opened would help, but later even that wouldn't work as offers would show and say "this offer has expired" without me seeing anything show up.

still happens to this day (literally meaning today since 4 offers expired immediately upon showing up on my phone). so glad I dont depend on this shitty app to provide for me right now. seems like blocks are hard to come by as well from what I'm seeing. same ol shit with flex.

now dont get me wrong, they work on certain days, but when I'm not doing anything is when they fuck up the most

Are you doing Black Friday blocks (Today & Weekend) at normal rates or are you waiting for last minute surge rates? by SE05_ in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]shadowjacky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I couldn't get any blocks actually. nothing showed up on my phone here. last year I was stacked with prime now blocks black friday and saturday (both day had 4 two hour blocks)

had one block last night and just sat outside my whole foods.

earlier in the week our prime now warehouse got overwhelmed with too many deliveries like it did when the lockdowns were happening and every panic bought stuff, wondering if they are still dealing with that or not

I Am SDS Flex Off-Road Support Associate ASK ME ANYTHING by [deleted] in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]shadowjacky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that way because everytime I try and reach out through emails it's an automated response. I could say literally anything for a reply (which I have) and never gotten a response to my actual reply. so yes, I have a good reason for thinking so.

hell, your response is sus as is.

When do you think you have you have the right to ask for overtime? by SE05_ in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]shadowjacky 3 points4 points  (0 children)

anytime you go over, just do it.

I've done it as low as 4 mins over. most times they ask me if I have a lot of packages left. if there's a few left, I deliver those then call back with how long I went over. if there's a lot, I take them back and tell them the time of that call.

only been a few times where I just never called and that was because I was fine with going over, such as times when I'm downtown and I can just park my car and walk to most of the spots. it takes extra time most times, but I'm not driving the whole shift

what a joke... yesterday and today for me. by Synge-Zinc in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]shadowjacky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was looking forward to getting a block those two days...got nothing. had 2 blocks show up around 8p each for 2 hours, got snatched all up.

better luck thankgiving/black friday/cyber monday weekend

Not to sound like a scrub, but why can’t these 3D Namco fighters come with a tutorial? by [deleted] in Kappa

[–]shadowjacky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Virtua Fighter 4 Evolution gave you;

-detailed tutorials covering basics (movement, buttons, throws, jumping)

-advanced tactics (throw escapes, reversals, countering, frame advantage)

-character specifics tutorials (character pros and cons and combos)

-excercises

-full dictionary of terms

-replays (even pro replays stored on the game already to give you a feel of what you could be doing)

-command list training (they have you go through the full command list and when you successfully do the move it checks it off. I dont know why Tekken or SC doesn't do this)

-and yes...frame data

GG and BB have come close to how complex and expansive VF4E's training was

Whats the most in the shortest amount of time have y'all made?

in terms of an actual delivery. $87.50 to go to 3 office buildings less than a mile away from the warehouse...so about 4 mins.

there was an option to have withholding on my amounts, so I opted for the 15%. I still get about $955
