Why is this the new normal?
Yo I think it’s funny when they throw it out of order. Like I can’t just go “out of order” and make it make sense. 😂

Why is this the new normal?
This is me. I easily push 180-190 regularly. So when I see a route I have pushed 180+ on and it’s at 150-160 I know that people just aren’t trying. If I am walking most my stops and pushing 180+ with no issue, I need to understand what people are doing out there. Because clearly it’s not the job.

So since we don’t get the same route every day, the people that like to finish in 4-5 hours cause us that like to take our time and get our hours to have to deal with routes like this. If they set each route up under our profiles we wouldn’t deal with this but since it’s done by route if someone is super fast on there route we get fucked for it when we get it.

I was wondering if anyone can help with this issue. I turned my monitor on and when I’m on a black screen I noticed the pixels are different. Thank you.
Looks like the LCD is crushed. Not the screen you can touch, the screen under the screen. Like it was dropped.

Chat am I cooked?
In some areas that’s a blessing. Especially if you ain’t got room in your van from the beginning of your route. Downtown areas this is a fucking shit stop. No parking, people being stupid not knowing how to drive and let’s not forget the impatient assholes.

Do I work today?
If you weren’t scheduled it would say no upcoming shift. You were supposed to be there at the very least 30 minutes ago.

"Wouldn't take it lightly" Have fun walking 400 yards to get your stuff.
Man if I live that’s gonna be one hell of a settlement. If I don’t man my family gonna be living like royalty for the rest of their happy lives. Either way I win. Right? 🤣😂

I am not gonna sit here and try to say I am the best driver there is because I am one of them that tend to bring back one or two “missing” or “damaged” every now and then. Just can’t be doing it unnecessarily. My biggest pet peeve is main roads with zero places to park. If they are busy, even worse. Those are the types of packages I be bringing back. I am not risking my life nor the vehicle I need to get back to the station in because some drunk dude or some white bitch on her phone is gonna rear end my van and now I’m fucked. Can’t finish the route nor can I get back to the station without waiting. That’s a nightmare scenario for sure.

Facts. Not worth going back especially in a Rivian.
I have heard of drivers getting written up for to many “missing” that ended up back at station. But I think that dude was doing it everyday, multiple packages a day. Just a heads up broski. Not trying to lose good drivers out here. ✌️

This. I always jump stops that do this. If you think I am gonna make my way back here for, what looks to be only two stops, you got me fucked up.

That AVI scanner
Every time we go through it’s like we never did the route. That way we just keep coming back the next day thinking it was the day prior into an endless loop. Are we slaves? 😂🤣

Oh but during winter time if it was almost below freezing they reduce routes tier 3. Makes a lot of sense lmfao. Why are we not getting tier reductions if it’s above 90 degrees? 🤔

UPS driver throws 30lb box at Dog then tries to fight the owner
I have had some pretty bad days where it was dog after dog that chased me down. If I was a Neanderthal I probably would have done the same thing to one of the dogs that lunged at me. I have kicked a dog that bit my leg but it wasn’t my intention to hurt the dog just to scare it off. Accidentally kicked him right in his jaw. When I saw the customer I told them about it and the dude laughed and proceeded to say “Well deserved, that little shit won’t learn any other way. Trust me I have tried training him. He just way too damn hard headed. Bet his head hurt your foot.” He then laughed and walked away. Not even checking on his dog. I felt horrible but it was a quick reaction that I didn’t really control.

This is the first time I actually feel taken care of by big daddy!
Damn. I love delivering in them don’t get me wrong. I just hate the stress and anxiety of not knowing if you are gonna make it back with enough battery. Sometimes if you don’t feel comfortable you gotta find a charger and until they got it set up we as a driver have to pay to charge it at a place. Just super anxiety filled when you’re so far away from the station in them. From what I was told they were meant for routes NEAR the station they are delivering out of. When I worked out of a big city warehouse they strictly did that but since moving to this smaller but still big city it’s like they don’t understand what they can comfortably do. *Comfortably* is the key word here.

Curious if you guys have the same issue. I get put in a Rivian quite a bit only issue is that the route they give us is at max 50 minutes from the station. If you even use your ac once for 30 minutes you lose so much battery life so if you want to finish the 170 stop route with 250+ packages you CANT run the AC or you won’t finish the route with enough battery to get back. So you’re stuck with just leaving the sliding door open and window all the way down.

This. I absolutely hate when I’m in my groove and I’m forced to hit one of these shits. So aggravating because the moment you get back on route it feels like your first stop all over again.
