    Honestly love this, it's weird but the vibe is almost as though you're taking a break and resting, which is hilarious since you literally just got a job but also I genuinely hope this does well for you. Crazy hearing you talk about the difference in work environment, I never thought about how being a youtuber would feel so pressured

    Just be careful of loose dogs. My brother delivers for Amazon and he was bit by a dog delivering a package.
    I drive for doordash and ubereats and the house numbers are the worst. Sometimes I have to Google the address to confirm its the right house. I wish people made their house number clear, on the mail box, clearly on the curb, clearly on the house with big numbers. 😂

    • @GoHerping
      @GoHerping  Год назад +3

      Dogs are by far the biggest issue, it's seriously bad in the rural areas. One house had numbers and I swore I took the GPS correctly but it still wasn't lining up, then I finally realized the 6's had fallen over and read as 9's

    It's interesting to see this coming from a different perspective cause I'm a full time worker getting ready to start yourtube as a hobby. If it turns into a little part time job thats cool but I won't ever make it my full time job. I like having a Roth 401(k) and enjoy the feeling of leaving work at work and being done.

      ​@@GoHerping That's definitely true you have plenty of options and keeping RUclips as your primary lets you get into easier entry level positions. Plus as people get older income changes in other ways too. It especially changes if you get married then have the income of a spouse as well as the tax benefits which my husband and I will be experiencing for the first time next tax season.

    I mean, it's quite the fitting job for you since you still get to work with boxes. As much as people don't like Amazon, as long as it's something you enjoy doing, then that's what matters. As someone with over 40K followers on my channel, all you have to do is watch mine to gain some inspiration, as they continuously inspire my people. That's why I'm so popular.

      Can we get an unboxing video like old times, but with old unclaimed amazon boxes instead?

    8:54 - Back when I drove for Uber in a rural-ish area the first thing I noticed is how difficult it was to find some homes and I started saying "If your Uber driver or pizza delivery driver can't find you, how the hell is EMS or the fire department going to find you?" Since then, I've ALWAYS made sure I have a highly visible address on my mailbox.

    Please do Amazon delivery videos. Your previous driving around and picking/delivering reptiles are my favourite videos.

    RUclips algo is back on your side. Keep up the great videos. after watching the doordash video i was super surprised seeing how little views some of these videos get (compared to the effort you put into them). Give it a couple months and i know you’ll start taking off big time.
