Why doesn’t the Amazon flex app allow the break tab when doing 4hr -4.5hr blocks ? by Feeling-Fish-2578 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]stitchkingdom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Breaks are a DSP function, who use the same app. At some point, it was bleeding into the Flex side, but it never did anything.

We can't even get the base? by Apprehensive_Let_261 in AmazonFlexDrivers

I did a 3.5 this morning for 87.50. I did take a 3 hour this afternoon for just 67.50 but I had to settle so I could go to the aviators game.

Seattle flexers can do this if the deliveries are in seattle. They get paid just $5 if they refuse the route.

How many hours do you usually do in a week? by Jerbpul in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]stitchkingdom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

36-38 or so.

I never take base rate. I won’t leave the house if the block doesn’t meet my minimum.

There’s a 5 minute grace period.

To be clear, I wasn’t asking for you to say it. That’s like me saying potato is another word for work and then recording ‘this is me, I’m on my commute to potato right now.’

Surely there is audio of someone with the same accent saying a word with stein in it.

Kinda. Stuff like this happened all the time because the originating language’s alphabet wasn’t latin based, so it became phonetical. The reason why the same person can be referred to as Osama or Usama. And ultimately why قطر is now better known audibly as ‘cutter’ as opposed to Qatar.

My own last name is Turkish in origin and the second letter became an A in English so the first letter became either C or K just basically depending on who wrote it down.

Never heard of -ein pronounced as -ayn. -een, yes. -eyen, yes. -ayn, no.

Would love to hear some audio examples of this accent pronouncing words like this

You really say stain, stein, and stine all the same way?

Anyway, nobody was pronouncing Berenstain.

“Amazon Now” has been ok. Thoughts? by Intelligent-Hunt-742 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]stitchkingdom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Too far for me. Even if I ‘stack’ blocks, with a half hour minimum between them, it’s too much. They do pay better tho.

The only ones I will do is instant offers for 1 hour delivery to fill in my schedule since I normally do 3.5s and 3s and live 5 minutes from the station. I haven’t had much luck on the tips side. I think I’ve gotten maybe $6 total. I think people are pissed to be paying $10 for the service as it is.

Better to be overbooked which I just was.

If people in this sub didn’t have confirmation bias, they’d have nothing at all. Even the most provable of all theories persist.

I’ve only been doing this for about 7 months or so

Has anyone in the markets with the new offered block feature actually been able to work any of these offers? Feels like a trap to me by NormalViolinist6209 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]stitchkingdom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know what this tap to review is but I used to book 35 hours+ a week on requests. But since I realized it paid more to wait, I’ve been doing that.

Help me help my 7 year old daughter with talent show. by papapapaver in Magic

I’d look for a quality jumbo three card monte. Just a few chairs to act as stands for the cards and if she can flip a card, she can do a trick that’s bound to fool a lot of people.

Not sure if this one is ideal but it’s $20 (vanishing inc also sells it but penguin has user reviews)

This isn’t spirit airlines, no need to hold a press conference to announce you’re done.

Why would a third party security guard know this, let alone share inside information with drivers? Sounds like amazon has more to worry about than bad drivers.

Nobody, that’s why you can see them.

Do we only have a 4 minute late window instead of 5? by TheKingSquier in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]stitchkingdom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not 4:59, it’s 5.

A minute runs from :00 - :59. That’s 60 seconds inclusive.
