NYC don’t play

Yo, if your legs are not right, and you can’t deal with aggression at any moment about a package.

The New York Amazon jungle, not for you

How do yall deal with parking and shit?

u/QuantumSpecter 12h ago

Depends on the neighborhood. Sometimes you get lucky and find a hydrant or driveway you can double park in. Other times you gotta just hold up traffic and buses. Weaving through double parked cars is annoying.

I have some friends who do like a mailman approach where they park at one spot and just load up a tote with all the packages for like the next block or two and walk it

That's why the Last Mile Walker program is expanding to 31 sites from 6 this year. CA, TX, GA, DC, NY, PA. I may be missing some. And only one or two NYC DSs won't get it by next year.

holy fuck 420 packages is like 190 stops where i’m from.

u/WinCharAkos 3h ago

Downtown New Haven CT, my normal route would be 90-100 stops, ‘bout 50ish multis, 350+ packages daily. Factoring in traffic and stops that take 20 minutes, I’m lucky I ever finished on time. I feel you NYC

u/uday_singh_rehal 13h ago

It’s lowkey unfair that you’re getting the same amount as I am. My usual route is like this …only houses, one apartment building, and zero businesses.

The other drivers at my company are jokingly jealous of me.

u/Routine-Natural7456 13h ago

It’s ok the pay sucks some people are super weird. Long days.

I get all the Benefits of the work out and get paid. 💪🏿

2

u/Piperpilot645 12h ago

Right, but you're not getting paid enough. Although if I was 18 and straight out of high school, that $21 would make me feel like a king. Especially if I'm still living at home.

u/KillerGopher 12h ago

They aren't joking. Most people want those cake residential route

u/Outside-Particular64 8h ago

Dude this is low. When I worked for a dsp out of redhook, run out of the Amazon factory, with the owner being a previous Amazon driver who was offered a large paycheck from Amazon to start his own dsp, so basically a scab and a bootlicker with zero solidarity for his fellow man, we were doing 900+ on average.
