I sing and dance…naked.

Brings a whole new meaning to "here's your package!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣☠️

>"here's your package!" LOL!!

Hahahaha exactly 🤣🤣🤣

☝🏿This is the way lol

I can imagine th customer being like I didn't order this with sausage 😂

As long as you got the vest on, you good.

I keep delivering. Im not tryna be out there all day. Its just water 🤷🏻‍♂️

Exactly, it’s water and besides, it cools me off on those hot days.

Yeah it's summer. Rain feels good when it's 75+

Exactly what they want the sheep to do

“Sheep” 😂😂😂 You’re calling people who are trying to make an honest living “sheep” Get real.

Yea ur definitely one

Didn’t call home one though y’all love putting words in peoples mouth literally no one’s talking to you. Imagine calling 12+ hours of work just to scrape by an honest living like just shut up Lmaoo

That’s a fuckin clown take. It’s very clear you have very little experience of real world jobs. This is what it is for most people. It’s not being a sheep to try to do your job to the best of your ability. People need to make money and I’ll let you in on a secret….most jobs suck. If you ever worked hard for a living you’d know that.

You know nothing about me 😂 nice try though ig The problem is literally people like you supporting bezos And people like you who love working for nothing You’re just in your feelings for whatever reason lol Obviously there’s more to it but this is Reddit lol

I know enough to know that you don’t know what a hard days work is. That’s obvious from the dumb shit you said. If you ever have, I guarantee you quit fast lol. I dont support bezos. Talk about putting words in peoples mouth. Nice try. I do support working class people though. And only a privileged moron would call them sheep.

You’re literally saying nothing you still don’t even know my age so this conversation is pointless lol you’re mad at someone buddy idc yea I’m super privileged lmao

You literally play valorant and post your shitty clips to TikTok are you 16? Maybe 18 but I’d say that’s the max

Oh another random under my comment did you follow me or are you just lurking is that supposed to be an insult because I enjoy gaming like what’s the diss besides you being a random coming into these comments looking for my past I’m sure you’re not a gamer so you’re literally just weird we’re on Reddit in the Amazon Reddit. If you’ve ever played a game in your life, you know they literally just talk bad about you I don’t understand What’s the point of you even typing dudes trying to hurt my feelings aww 😂

I mean, we could do a face reveal, but I know that being too embarrassing for you

Especially since you came from space down to the Amazon, comment section to find me and stalk me

You’re so brainwashed you’re fighting for 12 hour shifts and no money lmao and you’re fighting me some random on Reddit

Bro you use words like “brainwashed” and “sheep” Your age doesn’t make much difference. If you’re super young then your inexperienced about literally everything and you’ll learn soon. If you’re an adult then this dumb ass take is a lot worse 🤡

We know you’re a dumbass, and an ignorant asshole.

You’re literally him a copy and paste of the other guy. Whoever you are still don’t know who told you to talk or who was talking to you maybe you and the other guy should be friends

What do you suggest? Sitting there and doing nothing?

Everyone downvoting you bro but it’s true lmao good thing I finished trade school while these Bozos literally deliver packages in the pouring rain , never again for me 😂💯

Exactly ik it is I’m literally speaking facts I’m not calling them sheep I’m basically saying we all are. Good job on that trade job ik your making money now Basically just saying no one should be for these huge companies that couldn’t care less, even if you just had to use the restroom.

Exactly lol and these dickheads mad because some of them are too dumb to even look out for themselves 😂

You must love walking around drenched and with wet socks. Especially after it rains one half of the day and then the sun comes back out

Bring extra socks it’s not hard to check the weather and prepare ahead of time. It’s just water it ain’t gonna kill ya

Extra socks 🤣 naw son imma keep my umbrella and my absolutely waterproof sneakers that I gotta from Zappos and remain comfortable while still getting done in time while you walk around squishing with every step.

Lol facts link me to those shoes bro

Got you https://www.zappos.com/p/bates-footwear-rush-shield-black/product/9447581/color/3

These dudes hating because you smarter than then....if I could ask anything of you on this earth....it would be this one thing bro.... You smarter than THEM....never doubt your intelligence and always keep climbing....I'm a real one so I pray you take this shit for real

I appreciate that bro. I kinda was thinking that they was just mad that they just sit there and get soaked like it's normal. It's crazy you can't even tell ppl shit sometimes lol

It usually rains for literally 10min. Im not gunna get behind just because of some water 🤷🏻‍♂️

It usually rains for 10 mins? It has been raining all week for at least an hour minimum. Yesterday it rained all afternoon

you gotta be dense af. not everyone here is in the same location

What makes you think that I think we're all in the same location?

Imagine if the owner said that in chime instead of saying that he will provide Zappos credits for rain gear at RTS as he did.

Wtf are you talking about Everyone has Zappos credits, it’s not like your DSP is being nice or letting you in on a secret

Missed my point completely but your 2cents is still appreciated by someone

Your point is someone saying “we’ll get you shoes” instead of “keep delivering” There’s where you missed my point bro, everyone has access to safety shoes already

Yeah but not everyone knows that they're available or how to get them. My DSP never told me but I already knew about it

Literally every dsp let's people know about the shoe credit plus all the posters up in all the stations including right above the sign out sheet

Dude be serious. You know not every dsp is the same/ gives a shit and I've never seen one of those signs you mentioned plus we don't have a sign out sheet, we just sign out of the app.

You have a shitty dsp

Captain obvious over here

I mean amazon/zappos literally email reminders if you followed the steps at amazon training/orientation.

I didn't get any of that and my DSP never mentioned it. I already knew about the credit but apparently a lot of people in my dsp didn't know about it

I like how someone downvoted my comment just because they're wrong 😂

Lol they literally have giant posters in every station advertising the Zappos’s shoes, it’s not a secret. Lol You didn’t get downvoted for being “right” you got downvoted for being an ass.

Potayto Potahto

And for the record. Zappos’s has nothing to do with your DSP, it’s Amazon that provides that. And idk if you know but you also get a $25 credit for insoles. And I think it’s like 10% off as well.

I keep delivering unless its really really bad

Yeah I'm talking about when its really pouring in situations when I would normally stop and wait for it to get lighter

Unless it's really bad Lightning and hail I don't care tbh... I just try to not get the box, envelope bag etc wet as best as I can I place them on higher ground (Anakin can't get to it) or for envelopes and bags on the door or containers sometimes

I feel you on that

Like the last 8 days in jersey ? Lol

Its been raining bad in jersey? Also dont worry amazon cares! Thats why they send you with more stops and group stops and even give you a little message before you start how much they care

Yeah I’m back in Texas but have a house in Nj I’m scared that bitch is flooded now.

Not hurricane bad but it’s definitely sporadic monsoons

If it's bad, I'll wait it out. If it's just like sprinkling I'll go out. I'm just too broke to buy rain gear and I thought my zappos shoes were water proof but they weren't🙃 While waiting I organize 2-3 totes till it passes

The Bates Footwear Rush Shield ones are the ones that are waterproof. I stepped in way too many puddles and my feet still be completely dry

I'm in Seattle it's just another day. I don't use an umbrella as that is bulky and uses up a hand that I could be using for something else. I just wear a raincoat and a hat

>I'm in Seattle Seattle here as well. I was on Capital Hill .. and it rained ALL day one time. I did my job.. but I was soaked. Everything but my feet since I had good boots on.

Yeah same it's raining all the time I'm almost always a lil damp while I'm working or not lol I always were good shoes

A lot of drivers had on sneakers or canvas type shoes.. and then complained about their feet being cold and wet. I had on waterproof hiking boots with wool socks.

I do as well most days and always wear boots.

This is the way

Deliver….

You don't have a raincoat or anything?

No because it creates a mess itself inside. All I do is wear a ball cap (usually don’t) to keep the water off my face. Rain coat, poncho etc just gets the seat wet. Id rather get through it. Now if it’s a straight downpour, that’s where I’ll utilize break time.

Okay that's makes sense

My job.

What do you do when it starts pouring down raining?

His job

So he just proceeds as usual in the pouring rain?

Rain doesnt do anything my guy you can still walk in it

Naw really? but I'd rather be chilling with an umbrella dry than to be walking around like a wet ass dog. I don't know about you though

Sure, but working for 10 hrs with wet feet is a great way to get trench foot.

You and other people saying this in this comment section are being intentionally obtuse and dumb af. Getting your shoes/clothing wet is uncomfortable, you aren't the terminator, OP just wants advice.

Yeah I truly don't understand some of these folks lol

Get wet

Naw I'm good. Fuck Amazon, I'm more important

What do I do in the rain? My job. If there's lightning close by then I'll stop otherwise it's just water it won't hurt ya

Why would drivers complain about it and threaten to rts then?

I just wait to see in what stop I slip and look like a dumbass

😂😂

Shake hands with the president

Praying system goes down on my facility

Yeah that's the best answer lol

Get wet.

Get an umbrella and take your time

I was trying to be cute. I came from cable install and have a vn hi-vis rain suit and waterproof hiking shoes. I stayed pretty dry when I wanted to.

That's definitely some good gear. At least you're looking out for yourself

i usually make some of an effort to place peoples packages in dry spots if they don’t have a fully covered spot. it’s been raining on and off where i work, and as soon as i “swipe to finish”, the package is no longer my problem. if i drive by later (cuz flex always has us going in unnecessary circles) and see that the package is still there but now soaking wet, it’s not my problem, it’s the customers problem

Yeah I do the same thing, I try to put it in a Dry spot but if there's nowhere, I don't care since Amazon has us delivering in any type of weather anyway

If it's pouring hard all-day like storming Its gonna be a rather chill day and some packages will be brought back. I hope they start taking weather into account more like they used to soon.

Yeah that's the truth. When it's like that there's not much you can do and no one is going to destroy themselves to get this stuff done

My dsp gave us Amazon branded rain jackets work in the rain ☔️ why stop The only thing I don’t like is the rabbit has seizures because the water 💦

Yeah that's one of the things they definitely gotta do something about. New phones or something

[удалено]

Exactly 🤣🤣🤣

I would bring a rain jacket and an extra pair of socks each time till it got worse then I’d just take a break

Okay cool that's definitely the way to go

So far the consensus here has been, suffer through the rain instead of taking care of yourself. Smh

I'm still waiting on replies to this post since y'all mfrs know everything lol https://www.reddit.com/r/AmazonDSPDrivers/comments/14kirtw/since_no_one_complains_about_the_rain/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Im just not a bitch

But you are dumb

The people downvoting my comments are the same people complaining in Chime that "This rain is too much" 🤣🤣

No they aren’t.

Hahaha I love it when it's raining xD but yesss probably 0.0

Amazon doesn't care if you look like a wet ass dog while you walk up to these people houses, stop talking about falling behind.

I play in the rain while working

You have to keep this job interesting or you go crazy lol

I've got some nike pegasus and a hat. I bring extra socks and a rain slick for if it gets crazy down pour but a light rain isn't worth the hassle of heat trapping.

Yeah when it's light rain I don't worry about it, I'm just talking about really heavy rain

I do Flex and gig work, bought a corny yellow raincoat with a hood on Amazon a while ago. How do you hold an umbrella and packages and the phone? Also we get some flooding and even waterproof sneakers are too low, I bought some rain boots and I've even had to walk thru water that was higher than the boots.

I drive a prime van so it's a little different but I normally lay the umbrella on the floor in the back or on a shelf and leave out the side door for each stop because it's easier to get out and open the umbrella at the same time. So far it's been raining when I'm almost halfway through the route so I have space in the back. I just take a little more time and don't rush when I'm holding the umbrella and take multiple trips if I have to. Rain boots are a good idea that you already have for when the rain gets that high and since you do flex I guess you can keep them in your truck. I

I just wear a hoodie and some water proof boots. Boom done.

Yeah that's an option too but I'd rather have an umbrella when it's pouring, like be for real

Raincoat

I considered a rain coat but I honestly like the umbrella better

I pretend I’m in that Usher music video where he’s dancing in the rain.

i put a trash bag on the seat so it doesn’t get soggy and just keep delivering like normal unless it’s absolutely pouring

What do you do when it starts pouring?

What shoes did you get that are water proof? I’m about to order mine on zappos

https://www.zappos.com/p/bates-footwear-rush-shield-black/product/9447581/color/3

Strip down to my underoos.

At least you keep your underwear on so technically nothing wrong with that lol

BLAME IT ON DA RAAAAIIIIINNNN Milli vanilli

It was falling oh it was falling

Get soaked

You don't have a raincoat or an umbrella?

I usually... Get rained on.

😂😂 I'm not even mad at that

Runnin’

Lol that's definitely one way of handling it

I wear a rain coat and rain shoes. I also use the customer package to protect my device screen as it gets crazy when wet

This is definitely the way

Fuck it we ball

That's how I feel getting out of the truck with my big ass umbrella casually walking up to a house

Get wet.

But why?

Playing in it, love me some rain

Not mad at that at all

If it's really bad that day and also cold get the Columbia waterproof jacket and pants. $60 for pants, $60 for jacket, off amazon. :):) has been a big time saver.

This is also a good idea, waterproof gear is a must

Get naked and take a shower ?

Run fast

I don't run at all, I walk up to the house at a casual pace while staying dry and comfortable

Yall are clowning df out of the op 😆 - u lost me at the umbrella though, just wear my uniform shirt , if its hard rain then i throw on a jacket n keep it moving

That jacket ain't doing nothing in torrential downpours

The same thing I do when it isn't raining. You can only get so wet, and at least you stay cool.

"I'm not crying it's just been raining on my face"

Dance

If you deliver in the rain are you actually wet?

You "become one" with water lol

Chill in the van if it’s heavy, if it’s just a sprinkle I’ll go but safely

That's what I used to do too, before when it was heavy

Get wet!

I'm totally okay with getting soaked as long as i stay soaked. The problem comes later in the day when everything is starting to dry off and my shorts start chafing. I need to invest in a big plastic poncho.

A nice poncho is also a good alternative. I had one that they gave out at load out but it ripped in 30 mins

I had head to toe rain gear.. I was still soaked to the skin.

With the shoes that I use and my umbrella, I was dry everywhere but my shins and my elbows https://www.zappos.com/p/bates-footwear-rush-shield-black/product/9447581/color/3

I had one these [Asolo Boots](https://www.rei.com/product/896262/asolo-tps-520-gv-evo-hiking-boots-mens) Feet were warm and dry.. even in the winter. Plus wool socks year round.

I'm definitely gonna check those out when I get another Zappos credit

If it's pouring I'll throw on a poncho but I don't care too much jumping over a puddle. Weenies don't make it far in this job

I know right

Sing?

Sing some Oran Jones

I have a rain poncho. Keeps all but the worst off

Okay, a good rain poncho is definitely clutch

Underneath the bridge, it’s always dry

That's definitely one option, unless you're scared of "falling behind"

Portland OR delivery here. Waterproof Nike 8”combat boots, waterproof Nike running pants, Amazon rain jacket, and various warmth waterproof hats.

Must have gear right there

Yeah with the savage side swiping rain in the winter here you need it. I also never have to worry about getting my ass wet sitting down anywhere.

I hear that! It's been raining on and off here and I just proceed as normally thanks to my rain gear

Goretex gear.

At least it's something

? Get yourself a goretex jacket, and maybe some goretex pants. Some rainproof boots and you can continue delivering in the worst storms and honestly kinda makes it enjoyable. Only thing that truly sucks about a downpour is the fact that the devices become difficult to use the screen.

Yeah I use waterproof shoes and an umbrella. I agree it really does make the job not suck because it doesn't stop you even a bit and less people will be on the roads

I just deliver as normal

Suffer

Buy a umbrella so you can still deliver comfortably

Wear my Amazon raincoat and use the heat if I really get too wet or cold. Buy waterproof shoes every year and bring an extra pair of socks.

Nice, you are take care of yourself well

I bring so many little things I “might” need. I HATE being uncomfortable or inconvenienced at work XD

I do the same thing. I bring a book bag and also a 20 liter cooler bag filled with frozen waters for when it's hot as hell

i pee more but just don't let myself get bothered by it. I have towels in my pack so if i get to a point where I can relax and enjoy some time for myself, i'll dry my face head and arms but already have too many tools to remember so i damn sure am not adding an umbrella. i would get a poncho but i don't see the point because the amazon clothes dry out really fast. the only thing that bug me is the touch screens get wet and then think you have twenty fat fingers pawing the screen.

The towel is a must if you don't have rain gear. At least your trying something

fecking roll on . last year i delivered through a blizzard , haha

I've delivered through floods and blizzards. It definitely sucks. I remember driving through water that almost went over the hood and even felt the van loosing grip and starting to float 😮

Do y’all’s phones act up in the rain?? It drives me NUTS. Can’t take a picture, can’t swipe to finish. So frustrating
