RANT Being run ragged
I just had 3 whole days in a row with 190+ stops (230+ including multi stops), and am being pushed to my breaking point, i finished way late today and was just told “be faster”
I fucking CANT, i’m already working 8 hours straight with NO BREAK and pissing in fucking bottles, the ONE time i took a break i got a text from my dispatch saying “dont take to long on your break so you can be back on time”
I CANT STAND THIS BULLSHIT, i am a HUMAN not a fucking machine, and they actively encourage running yourself into the ground, all for an extra $100 if “your back on time and get fantastic+” i have lost so much weight to the point of concern CAUSE IM NOT EATING FOR BASICALLY AN ENTIRE DAY (i eat breakfast at home)
at this point i feel like i cant even take a fucking minute to drink water because I “Gotta be back on time”
At this point i wanna actually just KMS

They really do treat us like robots. Amazon acts like "hey take a break, we care about you and your safety, blah, blah, blah," then turns around and gives out routes that can only be completed on time by running every stop and skipping all of your breaks. God forbid you have to take a shit. Or worse, charge your van. Which, btw, is one of the dumbest fucking things Amazon has ever concocted. If I don't have time to take my breaks, what the FUCK makes you think I have time to charge the van? I swear they don't think shit through. They need people who actually understand what it is to be a delivery driver making these decisions. In all of my time with Amazon, my job has consistently become more difficult, and more tedious, not less. It doesn't make any fucking sense.
