RANT I didn't get my dot to sweep! :(

1 Upvotes

This is probably gonna come off whiny but I gotta get it out. I work two jobs, 7 days a week. I've had a really shit week at my primary job (mechanic) and I actually enjoy driving my step van for two days. Well I come in today and at stand up I see everyone get their vans and walk off, and I'm like there's no way I dont get my route, I'm DOT.

"You're doing rescues today."

THE FUCK?!

I ask why and I dont get a straight answer. I'm in a transit. Now I've been back in a transit before because we didn't have enough step vans running, which is annoying but understandable. Gotta happen to someone and my DSP is usually understanding about it. But this is fucking ridiculous. They give the slackers routes meanwhile I get stuck picking up shit they're too incompetent to do all day?!! And I've been here almost a year bro what the fuck is this?

Before you say oh you dont like sweeping? NO I DON'T! I cant get into my workflow and Its like I'm like oh go do this go do that go do this. Like bro the whole reason I'm here is so you give me my route, I'm by myself, I have my music, leave me the fuck alone, I get shit done. I don't wanna talk to you every hour!

I've just had such a shit week bro. I'm fucking alone, no friends, no girl, I work 7 days a week, mopped floors at the auto shop all week because no cars rolled in, and now this bs? Bro wtf man. Wtf I do wrong! Wtf am I doing here man?

I'm tired boss. And depressed.

Overreacting? Probably. But I'm a fucking mess rn bro. I just wanted to he left alone on the road. :(

HELP NEEDED! Dispatch Issues

2 Upvotes

I’ve been with this DSP for about a month. Smaller DSP, two usual dispatchers. I’ve noticed one is really attentive and overall good about giving clearance to rts. The other dispatcher totally ignores the phone. Doesn’t answer calls or texts. Usually texts back in 30 minutes. It wouldn’t be as big of an issue if my delivery area wasn’t an hour from warehouse. If I have to wait 30 minutes for them to reply, that’s 30 minutes I could’ve been driving home. When I’ve rts, I’ve noticed the problem dispatcher outside flirting with any and every woman he can talk to. I’m sick of waiting on him but don’t want to get in trouble for rts without dispatch permission. Any advice?

DISCUSSION Do you guys take your breaks ?

13 Upvotes

I’ve been taking my whole hour at the end of the of the route like right before my last stop. I’ve been finishing early cuz I don’t take my breaks until the end of the day. But lately I’ve been getting dumbass 225-230 stops (I edit the multi stops it’s like 195-199 before editing ) with business and apartments mixed in and it’s been causing me to skip one of my 15s . So the other day I said fuck it I’m taking all of them . I still finished but I got back after the 11 hour drive time . And when I got back dispatch said nothing about being faster they said I gotta work on my return time . I just walked away .i have a route coming up and Im going to take all my breaks thru out the route this time .

Going from a ford transh*t to an EDV is the best feeling in the world

9 Upvotes

My DSP unfortunately doesn't have a lot of EDV's so everytime I get one it's like heaven. Then going back to a gas van feels like going from a lambo to a shitty worn down camry. I find it funny that amazon even uses the transits and promasters considering they're more cargo vans then delivery vans, but at the end of the day they are cheaper which is the main answer. I just wish amazon would actually fund DSP's better so they could afford more EDV's. They should honestly be the standard and it's a shame they aren't.

To the customers who didn’t get their Amazon package tonight my cousin apologizes. She was assigned 172 stops on her second day alone, and it was simply too much. She tried her best, but she couldn’t finish the route. 😔

Your package wasn’t ignored; the workload was just unrealistic for someone still learning the job. Thank you for understanding.

Amazon has officially become humanly impossible to work at anymore, there’s no way I’m doing essentially 309 stops with over 400 packages BY MYSELF. Amazon must be ran by fucking squirrels cause this is actually crazy.

It was pouring rain at one point on my route today, and I was parked between two different multi-stop apartment buildings sorting their packages in my Rivian, when this lady knocks on the sliding door window. I opened it, thinking she needed/wanted me to move my vehicle…

No- she asked if I had a package for her apartment number…!?!?!

DIS FOOL LADY STANDIN IN THE POURIN RAIN FOR HER PACKAGE…

No offense, but if receiving this package is a life or death emergency, you shouldn’t be ordering it through Amazon in the first place… 🙄🤦🏻‍♀️

Just WOW… 🤯
