I enjoy your videos, I start training October 16 in Oklahoma City, I’m a little older at 47, but been working outside most of my life doing seamless gutter, climbing on ladders and roofs all day, still in good shape and have lots of energy, I’m nervous about the job, but these videos help me feel more confident about it. Keep up the good work!
TY and no matter the age this job is about organization and flow and you sir have plenty of experience in other fields which will help with you adapt and im sure you will knock it out man and Goodluck brother you got this and this job is truly one of the easiest gigs I've ever had!
Hey man i also work at Amazon delivery and funny coincidence i work at the same warehouse different dsp tho so it’s cool to see a pov from a different DA in Fresno or Central Valley area , I’ve been working for my dsp for 3 years now hopefully we run into each other one day keep them vids coming
My second week. I literally stepped out of my van and my ankle twisted and I ended up spraining my ankle but thankfully I was able to work through it and then the next week I was leaving a house but I missed a step from their porch and I actually fell and scraped my knee on their sidewalk. I was definitely Peter Griffin that time😂
Man, US Amazon seems way more easier and way more chill than UK Amazon. We have to knock on every door, always make sure that someone is home, if they're not, you have to try a neighbor or check if they've left instructions etc. Leaving it in a safe place and taking a picture is absolute last resort stuff, it sucks, and that's why I don't do it anymore 😆
Ive seen some of those vids and thought wow lots of step to their process and here in the U.S some neighbors do not like each other at all lol Thanks for checking out the video!!
I just started with amazon. My second day was yesterday, and I go back on Sunday. My first day we had 47 stops and 140 packages, I forgot how many locations. We also took 74 packages or about 25 stops off of another guy who we rescued. My second day was yesterday, and we did 299 packages and like 130+ stops. I will admit that at first it felt really overwhelming but I'm starting to get into the grove of things and its not so bad. Im super sore like I got into a mma fight with the hulk however if you just power through its not actually that bad. My dsp is getting a raise next week to almost 2 dollars more than where we are currently which is cool. Thank you for your videos because they definitely will guide me a bit more as I do this on my own
@@person4402 thank you. The soreness doesn’t really get to me tbh. I only work 4 days a week and unfortunately my dsp is in the process of trying to get rid of other drivers who don’t bust their butt, because day after day the people who have the hard routes are constantly having to do big ass rescues after their 300 packages being delivered. The owner and dispatchers have listened to the more experienced drivers and are going to cut people who don’t work hard by either making them quit by not scheduling them and giving hours to the better drivers or just firing them straight up for performance issues
You would honestly have hated my week I was avg about 180 to 196 and about 350 to 380 packages not to mention today had 166 over 250 locations and 350 packages but overall my suggestion would be stretching daily and take lots of water and hydration packets to help for the day.
@@Bugg5zGaminggot ya plus don't overwork yourself remember it's not worth the amount of risk on getting hurt or stress do what u can and make sure always to work at what u feel is a good pace!!!
I have not seen 160 plus stops in so long my dsp in sacramento california got relocated to downtown sacramento majority business and apts. I get low counts 60 to 122 stops meaning it will take almost all day. Props for the video
I've seen another driver on here wearing gloves with the fingertips cut off. Have you ever considered wearing gloves? (Although on a hot day, I can understand why you might opt out lol)
I think about gloves often but think my hands will get sweaty and I won't like it and I actually bought 3 pair and have yet to use them lmao but I will say there is something satisfying washing all that dirt off at the end of the day lol thanks for the rec!
Cause im not afraid of work and like to hustle and I like to beat delivering in night time if I don't have too and being a hour drive away from the station i'd rather have majority of stops done during the day if possible, That's why!
Hey let's see a video where you're all organized you're ready to go Midway through your route you get a damaged package and his liquid flowing all over the place you got to find it you got to bag it and let's look at some non Amazon lockers how long that's going to take you
I just put damaged packs aside in the back of the van and spills happen often and you just hope it smells good so the van smells good! as far as non amazon lockers go they suck lol
Have you ever fallen or experienced a accident while working? Glad this wasn't too serious of a fall and I was able to keep moving and grooving 😂

I started around 2 months ago. I was super sore for the first two weeks, I completely forgot about that. Keep at it.

TY so much and thanks for stopping by! Literally got 202 stops today! Lmao
Can you do a video on how you label your overflow packages ?
Absolutely and good luck man you got this in the bag and seriously the fact that you are looking up vids on the gig already makes you a step ahead!

Yes highly recommend gloves with finger tips so you can still text and the palms of your hands won’t get dirty
what case do u use to for your iphone?
I use a otter box & Thanks for stooping by!
How do you keep your packages from falling out of side door?
All totes strapped up with bun-jee cords and loose packages are up front with me and big boxes stay in the back of the van!
Why do you run to the doors?
I like to move and get the blood going and keep the afternoon easier as most work is done,Thanks for checking out the video!!
I guess because he can.
so what do you do to prevent foot blisters
lotion the feet good at night and proper fitting shoes and new socks don't hurt either! Feet are important 100%
Bring a change of socks in your bag
My boy why are you running ? Especially in 100 plus degree weather? Nah bro u running rewards u with more work
Cause im not afraid of work and like to hustle and I like to beat delivering in night time if I don't have too and being a hour drive away from the station i'd rather have majority of stops done during the day if possible, That's why!
And remember. Hydrate today for tomorrow.
1000%
I have seen drivers lose totes and over flow when driving with door open
