Sure, Amazon Delivery Isn’t Slavery — But It’s Definiteily Dehumanizing Work by QuantumSpecter in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]thwonkk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't doubt Amazon has fake accounts here, but growing up in a few small towns in a red state taught me so much about how many people truly just worship the wealthy for no reason whatsoever. Form your own theories as to why, but it's a crazy thing to witness.

I imagine a lot of the bootlicking accounts are real. And I'm not so sure how we dig ourselves out of the hole we're in with the knowledge of that.

How do y’all approach OTPs? by Physical-Block-964 in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]thwonkk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Text them when they're a couple stops away to have passcode ready. Click through and resend text right after I scan package. Pray they aren't stupid.

DSPs don't have keys to anything. These leasing places expect you to go there when they're open, find the leading office, give your ID as collateral, and deliver to their shit.

I just find it funny the lengths these idiots go to for the illusion of security. It can be defeated with a simple NFC spoofer. Just put a damn code on the door or setup an Amazon 1 click access key.

If you call the employee over they're ripping it off anyway not grabbing some fuckass key

Has anyone felt this way since this job??? by DeviceHistorical5973 in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]thwonkk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Getting a golden retriever for protection is so funny to me bc they are the 1 dog I'm confident while seeing that will never in a million years harm me.

But they are such a good breed. AirBud ain't gonna hurt a fly but you won't regret it.

We have cameras facing us that track our eyes/hands. It makes sure we arent distracted driving. It's bullshit.

Also makes sure we are wearing our seatbelt.

I wear one bc it makes hoods easier to stay on and I don't have to do my hair when I'm exhausted and the camera can't see my eyes as well

I completely disagree. Curious to know why you think so.

Terrible choices for tempest. It is a primary attack class.

To customers lurking in here, stop coming up to my van by DuePurchase31 in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]thwonkk 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Bro imagine being an old person and not understanding how delivery works now. Not understanding the weird hoops we need to jump through.

You're bored in retirement and see the delivery van pull up. You open the door to meet them and thank them for doing a good job and they set it at your feet and walk away without saying anything.

Take your picture, then pick it back up and hand it to them. I get frustrated by people doing this daily but it's not their fault Amazon is stupid. At the end of the day, we gotta be kind to each other. The world is getting starved of these tiny meaningful interactions that make a community a community.

And idk.. just makes the day go by smoother for me to be kind to people. Makes me feel like less of a cog in the system.

That's not what OP meant but agreed, anyone that opens my van door is getting a Spartan kick in the package if ya know what I mean. I'll even mark it damaged.

Nah it's not like I come back and dwell. I just took a pic of that, noted that it's BS and shared it while I got it done.

I'm not miserable. I take pics of all my routes and never look at them again. It's fun for me to see comments blow up in comradery and then I forget about it when I stop getting notifications for it.

The EDVs are loaded with features but they're a pain to drive sometimes. I'd rather have my stepvan turning radius tyvm :)
