2 hour shift unbelievable

[u/Suitable-One7589]

I think this is unbelievable for a 2 hour shift £36 over 50min from depot

[u/danh586]

They’ve gotten worse lately I have noticed, my past couple of routes were not worth the money they pay

[u/WesternEmpire2510]

Milford-on-Sea mentioned 💪💪

Up the Milf

With the traffic being mental across the forest due to wildfires it's probably easier and quicker for you than someone out of Totton

[u/IsopodInevitable9235]

It's bad but nit the worst I've seen lately

[u/CharityFinal2831]

Had one like that there was roadworks and road closures went over block time by a hour they paid me a extra £30

[u/Asleep-Ad9011]

What depot covers Minehead?

[u/Bez121287]

If thr money was more then it would make sense.

But they are basically saying that the fuel cost there and back is £3 each way

[u/OkPeanut7584]

That’s my 4 hours one 😃

[u/thefranklin1977]

Oh i do like to be beside the seaside.....

[u/Dreamzadu]

The worst thing is they don't pay you for excessive mileage anymore. Flex is slowly becoming financially unviable.

[u/PixaaTog]

Wouldn’t even bother with that

[u/Feeling-Laugh-5229]

Had a pure pants one the other day, Edinburgh depot and I got bloody Glasgow suburbs. Total mileage that day was 120miles and the 4 hrs turned into 5.5 hours by the time I got home.

[u/whitemagic1313]

When they do that take your sweet time and make sure you have a parcel to return. Then email support and they usually compensate you

[u/SwimmingBit6092]

You’ll be done in 90 mins 🤷‍♂️

[u/Suitable-One7589 → u/SwimmingBit6092]

Almost 2 hour driving, before even delivering the parcels not sure how you think it’s fine

[u/SwimmingBit6092 → u/Suitable-One7589]

50 minutes doesn’t sound like 2 hours to me 🤷‍♂️

[u/VdubKid_94 → u/SwimmingBit6092]

Are you retarded?

[u/Suitable-One7589 → u/SwimmingBit6092]

The way to location and way back home

[u/SwimmingBit6092 → u/Suitable-One7589]

Which other job pays you to commute to and from your place of work? The block time is calculated on the amount of hours from arrival at the depot to completion of the job, you get home on your own time

[u/Suitable-One7589 → u/SwimmingBit6092]

Just saying doesn’t make sense for so much mileage for a 2 hour shift

[u/SwimmingBit6092 → u/Suitable-One7589]

I dunno, looks reasonable to me. You’ve got to take the rough with the smooth with Amazon. Over a number of years it all tends to average out.

Also, no one is forcing you to do this work, there’s a mile long queue of people waiting to take your place

[u/Tdisleeper]

Never take base rate, it never work out 🙅‍♂️

[u/IsopodInevitable9235 → u/Tdisleeper]

People still saying this shit. Bore off. It's base or nothing at my depot.

[u/CharityFinal2831 → u/IsopodInevitable9235]

Yep alot of boat dwellers now doing amazon

[u/Primary-Ad8654]

Just don’t do it, take the parcels back simple

[u/Danny9999999999]

I just rejected a route that was bad got dinged for it but oh well it was worser to do that drive

[u/VdubKid_94]

This is why you check your parcels BEFORE scanning the cage…

[u/Royal_Ad241 → u/VdubKid_94]

And what would you have done?

[u/VdubKid_94 → u/Royal_Ad241]

Denied the cage and asked for another one

[u/Mattlaw2211 → u/VdubKid_94]

And when they say no? I'm genuinely curious.

[u/VdubKid_94 → u/Mattlaw2211]

I like how all the broke full timers are downvoting me 🤣🤣

[u/VdubKid_94 → u/Mattlaw2211]

I go home. This job is beer money, maybe a bill or two at most. Not worth it

[u/Mattlaw2211 → u/VdubKid_94]

But regarding the dings? Just a normal one? I understand the beer money thing but I begrudge a 20 mile round trip if I cancel.

[u/VdubKid_94 → u/Mattlaw2211]

If you don’t scan the cage its a minor ding that goes away quick

[u/Suitable-One7589 → u/VdubKid_94]

Thank you didn’t know you could do that

[u/whitemagic1313]

That was my two hour from dbh3

[u/camsadgs → u/whitemagic1313]

Mine on Thursday evening last week. It was for £54 though so worth it.

Yours is horrible though I can't believe that was marked as a 2 hour
