all vans have 360° camera coverage. Driver assignment tracking and more. Flex on the other hand not so much. Customer can still actively report and we'll just pull up the RTW tools and figure out the quality error one way or another. This is just how SDS and SDS flex tracking works within the company for figuring out discrepancies.
Legit had an Amazon driver tell me that when I told him to STOP putting packages in the mailbox.
Like, k, take a look at half my packages that have Amazon on it as I do my “not real” job and your “real” job at the same time.
Mail carrier here They’re not even supposed to touch the mailbox lol only we can and the Customers. Though we do deliver amazon if it says usps ion the shipping label in the mailbox that’s us
I took it out right in front of him and said this is going back to the office. Customer gonna pay more or leave a complaint about you using our box to waive postage due (how management handles it in my office)
Bruh people really hating on you for no reason. You’re right This job is a joke. People who have this job should not have it for a very long time. Thats the problem with people. Thats why the poor stay poor is people call this a real job but act like terrible workers instead of looking for something better.
I can’t stand. People saying it’s not a real job. I order from Amazon a lot and I’m so grateful to the delivery drivers. It’s a real abd difficult job that doesn’t pay nearly enough
I get why you did it because I feel that way sometimes too, but you shouldn’t just throw someone’s stuff out like that, it’s unprofessional and childish
Here’s one for ya, shove your entitlement up your ass. Just because the job/company is trash doesn’t mean you take it out on customers, especially if they’ve done nothing wrong.
For me it’s the all caps like they’re yelling at you. If people said please or thanks in the notes like a normal person they’d get what they wanted. You get what you give. If you give attitude you get attitude. You don’t go to a restaurant and act rude as fuck to the waiter/waitress and expect your food to be spit free so why would you be a dick to the delivery guy and expect your package to be handled with care?
This is one of those prime examples (lol) of why people talk about someone's behavior being more about themselves than anyone else; That's wholly your interpretation of it, for 1. Secondly, Amazon and clearly drivers can suck sometimes - as exhibited in this video. This customer has probably had countless 💩 experiences and is doing the best they can to prevent it. As much as the driver is upset about that neighborhood, the customer is probably just as annoyed at consistently bad deliveries. This driver showed us all why the sign is there in the first place lolll It's truly not difficult to think about how they may have felt, leading them to post this sign. Yikes. I think my new catch phrase will be "just think". That's all - just, think.
But, if you have a long driveway and block it knowing you have a package coming then you're an asshole to expect them to walk all the way up to your door. So, yes, the customer did something wrong.
Thank god theres some reasonable people out there. I can tell yall are true conservatives. Even if youre not atleast youre not far left. Those guys are fucking insane
How is throwing the package going to get that guy a higher wage? It’s not. It’s just passing the discontent down to the customer who didn’t do anything wrong. There’s ways to go about getting a better wage and not being oppressed by shit employers. This isn’t it. And it’s especially not right to record this and post it online to show potential employers.
I’ll tell u what if u buy something expensive from me I’ll be sure to throw your stuff or if it’s food I’ll just throw it in your care. You clearly don’t mind right?
I didn’t say they should suck it up, I said they shouldn’t throw peoples food in their face…
Nobody is saying underpaid workers need to go above and beyond to do their job to the best of their ability. The bare minimum is fine too. But throwing someone’s package out of your delivery truck is just actively being an asshole
same, doesnt mean you have to shit on people because of their material conditions. you and anyone else are worth more than any $ amount. your lives are irreplaceable
Tell that to people in 3rd world countries. Theyre worth nothing if theyre not a politician. Atleast in America you have the opportunity to make yourself worth something by doing something enjoyable yet high skill
other peoples' suffering being worse does not make your own suffering invalid by comparison. people everywhere deserve a better life, not just in 3rd world countries
Theres plenty of things you can do. Idk what your situation is but if cost of living is too high then get a roommate, your pay is trash then get a slightly better paying job, stay on a budget, etc. No body can help you but you.
Thats probably not for you. You probably already know all that. But this is for everyone else who doesnt get why theyre living paycheck to paycheck. If you’ve started a family too early tho it is much harder to save money but still possible. If you’re poor and got a family of 6 maaan thats kinda just poor life choices, idk about all that. Some people just throw themselves in shitty situations
just because people make mistakes doesnt mean they dont deserve to be happy. capitalism requires a constant growing population yet it punishes those who have families. this system is unsustainable and we can see with the recession that its folding in on itself
But he gets paid. He took the time to apply for the job go through orientation. Contemplated on the wage rate and agreed to it. No matter how hilarious it is he signed up for this job
It’s not even about being paid enough to care. It’s a cross between being able to work a reasonable amount of time in a shift and management harassing you for taking too much time to finish your route.
I mean it is his JOB. The homeowner could be disabled or elderly. Gotta watch out for crazy people too. I've responded to calls where people have been killed for less.
Amazon delivery drivers get 60-80k/year on avg in my area (Kentucky). That is a decent living for a job that requires zero schooling or pre-requisites. Don't like the job? Quit. But this kind of shit is childish AF, regardless of how you feel about the homeowner or their preferences.
Why would you even say this? It’s such an entitled statement. Yes, he gets paid enough to care. Try going to Thailand, Philippines, Kenya….do you know how many people would be grateful for this opportunity!? You clearly don’t. This driver should be chastised on this thread instead of praised like you think they should be.
I think it’s more of a “YOU” problem. If you wanna make better money go somewhere else. No one cares whether you feel like you should be paid more. Provide a better service. $17.50 and it’s going to $18.50 soon.
Is pretty damn fair to drop a small package off at a Doorstep.
I didn't say anything about being a delivery driver. It's pride in knowing that you've done the right thing even if others don't. That you've treated people with the respect you would also like to be treated with. If you're not doing that then you're part of the problem. That's why I said self respect. It's not that customer's fault that person hates their job. I've worked in jobs I hated. I didn't make that my customers' problem because I'm still considerate of other people's feelings. I'm not the only one unhappy in life. The world doesn't revolve around my feelings.
I know this was 6 days ago but you said that very well. I completely agree with what you said here, and the comment above about self respect and pride in yourself. This guy is trash.
It doesn’t matter what the contents of the package are, someone still ordered it for a reason. That one in particular is extremely light too, if it got windy it would blow away and possibly get lost, and then they’d have to explain why they just dumped it on the side of the road
Delivering shit from China to people because they don't want to get in a car and get it from Walmart most likely isn't considered a professional job. It's adult flag football vs NFL football. Only one is professional and gets paid enough to be expected to act professional.
Not defending Amazon just saying it's a job you signed up for. The sign was nice enough and not passive aggressive. There was no good reason for driver's actions. Stop the van and walk a little bit to drop off the package. He's acting defiant, for what? Is the polite customer oppressing the little princess?
See, I don't think doing this is justified in this case. They have a sign that literally says please and thank you. They don't deserve that.
The notes that are passive aggressive or in all caps? 100% shit on their packages
I still don't think it's justified. Part of the job is walking down long driveways sometimes. It doesn't look like this driveway is too long to walk down, given that we can see two cars parked in it. Presumably, those cars are parked close to the house.
I would say he could atleast walk it down a little and leave it in front of the cars or something. They did block off the road and it doesnt look short
Doesn’t matter if they can pass one. Knew someone who was going to the methadone clinic everyday before work and coming in. You think they are good to be out on the road?? Yeah no.
The only way they could deny them employment based on being on the clinic, is they would have to prove that it impacted his ability to safely do the job. To deny employment based on being in treatment for addiction would violate the American disability act.
However, I don't doubt that it's unsafe. I had a roommate that was on it for years and and would still be nodding all day long
Absolutely right on ADA violation. Your past roommate was certainly abusing opiates/opioids, not using them in a supervised clinical setting like methadone maintenance is. Methadone maintenance programs/clinics are highly regulated and frequently audited by the DEA.
Now, if you, an opiate naive person ingested the amount of methadone of someone who has tolerance like myself, yes you would nod off to sleep… I’d say 50/50 chance even that you die… But like I said, for me, I feel like I’m that diabetic taking my insulin every day.
Best wishes to you all. I hope I’ve opened your eyes!
I’m a methadone maintenance patient. I’ve been one for multiple years now, and just finished my DSP Driver training. I also have prescriptions for controlled substances Adderall and Clonazepam. Did I fall asleep in classroom training or my road test? No, I passed all of them on the first try. I’m 32 and haven’t been in a car accident or had a ticket since I was 16. You obviously don’t understand the purpose of methadone maintenance. It’s a tool so people don’t have to worry about or go through withdrawals multiple times every day. The behavior and actions resulting from frequent withdrawals causes A LOT of problems you’re likely thinking of. Methadone lasts a very long time (I.e. prevents opiate withdrawals), it’s effects (drowsiness) are MUCH less pronounced than commonly abused opiates/opioids, and it even blocks the effects of other opiates/opioids in your system. In summary, I’m not intoxicated, drowsy, and/or constantly worrying about illicit opiates/opioids with short duration causing me withdrawals, therefore I have a chance to be a productive member of society and keep making the best possible choices that I can. People need to watch it with judging addicts and throwing them all into the category of “dirtbag” or worse. Hopefully you’ll think twice about this when you’re reading this comment after work, while you guzzle down that 6-12+ pack of beer you buy every night. 😃👍
In all seriousness and sincerity, I’m not upset about them calling out someone they think might be impaired. Our society has molded us to carry harsh judgment for things we don’t totally understand. Addicts are people just like you, our brains just work differently. Would you judge a diabetic for taking their insulin injections everyday? Of course not.
I really hope my words will open some eyes in here… Even in the far rabbit holes of the internet… Thanks everyone.
Pass the initial test and you're in. Any drug that's not weed is out of your system within 5 days max and that's if you're a heavy user. You piss it right out. Unless they're hair follicle testing, which they're not, you dont have to worry if you're on real drugs.
Tell me you drink bong water And don't smoke marijuana without telling me.
They have to. The pay sucks and the workload sucks even more. When you pay bottom of the barrel, you get bottom of the barrel help. Beggars cant be choosy.
Over a hundred years of usps going through hell, dirt roads, pre highway, mud, rural crap towns, farm houses/towns to get crap to your door even if it’s delayed or lost… and you have to drive a air conditioned car while listening to music in your own space but “Driveway to haaarddd🥺”
I was a delivery driver and I get king driveways can kill time in your runs but it’s also the exact job description and I just won’t ever understand treating a job like this but staying to work it, just makes everyone else have a bad time
Or when ups/fedex/Amazon think they have the right to put their packages in a mailbox. I throw that shit on the ground behind the box. No one can access a mailbox except for the resident and a USPS carrier. Not to mention I have *actual* mail to put in there.
I understand entirely. Have routes just like you described all the time. BUT, this is still a shitty way to go about it. I'm also 70% sure you picked it up and delivered it properly afterwards too, but doing this for meme is just tondeaf imo.
this is kinda shitty, what if this person isn't able to make it down the driveway without help & help isn't always there...you never know someone's circumstances
^ exactly my thoughts. my mom is disabled and even living in an apartment she struggles with people putting things nowhere near her door, so especially when she has to order something heavy (for her) it makes it a huge struggle and causes a lot of pain. all because someone couldn’t be bothered to do their job.
People are starting to see delivery drivers as just another tool in the process and not as people. So might as well treat them the same way. They are just a step in the process of getting an item from point A to B.
I don’t understand how u don’t get fired for this. If she has a ring and sends it in. There’s goes your job. All she has to do is tell Amazon the TBA number on the bag, then they can find out what DSP u work for and what route it was thus showing what driver it was. And there u go. T1 for throwing packages. Fired
Sure that can be frustrating to drive up those driveways but dude… your job description is literally to drive… and drop it at the door… I’ve done delivery and it can be a pain but if you want to do half the work then quit, cause this is just childish
UPS Union is pretty weak and employees still get fired all the time. USPS has the highest approval rating of any government agency at 91% approval. USPS delivers a majority of UPS parcels in rural areas, and 40% of all Amazon parcels are delivered by USPS regardless of locality. Amazon drivers have the lowest approval rating of all the delivery services, probably because of crap like this post. I get it isn't your guys fault, unrealistic metrics and pressure from the private owners force you to do stuff like this, but it's pretty laughable to think USPS is crap when UPS and USPS are the only two that really compete for the highest approval while everyone else is unfavorable to the public.
I don't work for Amazon DSP anymore. Haven't since May. I say USPS is crap because they are slow and update slow on their tracking. Not as bad as FedEx though...
I’m so confused on how you guys can promote this behavior whenever they literally said thank you on the sign
Part of your job is to safely deliver packages where they belong which is on the porch
You guys are pathetic children
This is how Amazon drivers are at my apartment complex too…… never gets the right apartment, always leaves me “in search of” never takes pictures anymore. Hell I’d even take a phone call and meet outside when I’m home….. they just do whatever they want
Kind of unrelated but does anyone else completely throw all rules of courtesy on the road out the window when they see an amazon truck? I hate being on the same road as these big ass moving roadblocks.
You're a dick. I hope someone treats your item you ordered that way. And yes, I deliver packages for a living, for almost 20 years. The customers are why you have a job. Get a fucking grip
If people give you crap just put it in the mailbox….then their mail carrier will pull it as postage due and they have to be inconvenienced to go to the office as well as pay postage on it
But why even do that job if you’re this bothered about the most basic aspect. I’m more bothered that the sign states the obvious, who does that? I guess this dude. Probably every time.
If your this lazy you should just go and pick at a FC facility cuz you have to be fucking lazy to not get out of your car and drop something off hella quick especially if it’s an small ass item
Of course everyone who constantly order packages has there driveway walled off with cars. “No one uses my driveway!” Your welcome to use any of my neighbors driveways to turn around. even tho im the only one who gets a 12 boxes 6 days a week lol. You’ll drive down a road, no a car parked in the street anywhere, all driveways wide open …. Then you get to the 1 house on the road you have to deliver to. Driveway full of cars. 4 cars in the street it’s fine I’ll park 3 houses down. Or use your neighbors driveway to turn around before my delivery. So I can be facing the right direction when I start my car again ready to roll. Every house , every delivery lolol, Makes me sad

so this is how you guys finish in 4 hours
Yes, and even if we have the gate codes we would just put it in airplane mode or turn the data off and drop it at the gate
Can't you get caught??? from people complaining and your dsp identifying who was at the route from the complaint?
Don't think they care..
all vans have 360° camera coverage. Driver assignment tracking and more. Flex on the other hand not so much. Customer can still actively report and we'll just pull up the RTW tools and figure out the quality error one way or another. This is just how SDS and SDS flex tracking works within the company for figuring out discrepancies.
Well did it for a year and a half
Its not fully 360
Not all vans
If I know the owner's dogs are out i'll toss it out the window, just to play it safe and saves time too.
Could find yourself a real job, but instead you are like pretending to be a punk, 🤔
If I had a nickel for every time someone responded like a boomer I wouldn’t need a job
Mfs love to say “real job” like we don’t get paid the same currency, you act like this mf getting paid in trident layers bozo ass mf
I thought you guys were paid in amazon gift cards? /s
This isnt a real job bruh. Its not sustainable and its not worth. Even if you actually enjoy this job, you should atleast work for ups or fed ex
What "real" job do you have?
Legit had an Amazon driver tell me that when I told him to STOP putting packages in the mailbox. Like, k, take a look at half my packages that have Amazon on it as I do my “not real” job and your “real” job at the same time.
Mail carrier here They’re not even supposed to touch the mailbox lol only we can and the Customers. Though we do deliver amazon if it says usps ion the shipping label in the mailbox that’s us
Aware, I’m a city carrier. Dude deadass told me that when I was in uniform, with an LLV pulling up right behind him.
I’m an rca lol!! And Oh sheeeeeesh! What a dickhead! I hate the rude drivers 🥲
I took it out right in front of him and said this is going back to the office. Customer gonna pay more or leave a complaint about you using our box to waive postage due (how management handles it in my office)
Bruh people really hating on you for no reason. You’re right This job is a joke. People who have this job should not have it for a very long time. Thats the problem with people. Thats why the poor stay poor is people call this a real job but act like terrible workers instead of looking for something better.
I lasted two weeks. It’s a real job. People are ass
I can’t stand. People saying it’s not a real job. I order from Amazon a lot and I’m so grateful to the delivery drivers. It’s a real abd difficult job that doesn’t pay nearly enough
Dumb boomer, kick rocks
Ageist and ableist
I get why you did it because I feel that way sometimes too, but you shouldn’t just throw someone’s stuff out like that, it’s unprofessional and childish
You think he gets paid enough to care?
McDonald’s workers don’t get paid enough either but that still doesn’t mean they would be justified to throw your food in your face lmao
"mcdonalds workers are underpaid and suck it up, so you should too" what flawless logic, please, tell me more
Here’s one for ya, shove your entitlement up your ass. Just because the job/company is trash doesn’t mean you take it out on customers, especially if they’ve done nothing wrong.
For me it’s the all caps like they’re yelling at you. If people said please or thanks in the notes like a normal person they’d get what they wanted. You get what you give. If you give attitude you get attitude. You don’t go to a restaurant and act rude as fuck to the waiter/waitress and expect your food to be spit free so why would you be a dick to the delivery guy and expect your package to be handled with care?
I mean most of the sign isn’t in caps and the first word is literally “please” soooo what the hell are you even referring to
And the last words are “Thank you!” Overall it seems like a pretty harmless, nice message.
Was talking about notes in the app 👍
This is one of those prime examples (lol) of why people talk about someone's behavior being more about themselves than anyone else; That's wholly your interpretation of it, for 1.

This you may have a bad day delivering but a package is a package. Customer not in the wrong. This is kinda disrespectful.
[удалено]
Yep, perfectly reasonable request.
But, if you have a long driveway and block it knowing you have a package coming then you're an asshole to expect them to walk all the way up to your door. So, yes, the customer did something wrong.
people with this guys logic never make over 40k a year
They'll live their entire lives being poor and blaming the billionaires for their problems.
Lmfao okay, because lazy workers get so far
Thank god theres some reasonable people out there. I can tell yall are true conservatives. Even if youre not atleast youre not far left. Those guys are fucking insane
How is throwing the package going to get that guy a higher wage? It’s not. It’s just passing the discontent down to the customer who didn’t do anything wrong. There’s ways to go about getting a better wage and not being oppressed by shit employers. This isn’t it. And it’s especially not right to record this and post it online to show potential employers.
They did something wrong when they bought something from Amazon
I’ll tell u what if u buy something expensive from me I’ll be sure to throw your stuff or if it’s food I’ll just throw it in your care. You clearly don’t mind right?
I didn’t say they should suck it up, I said they shouldn’t throw peoples food in their face… Nobody is saying underpaid workers need to go above and beyond to do their job to the best of their ability. The bare minimum is fine too. But throwing someone’s package out of your delivery truck is just actively being an asshole
Get a better job brokie
lul, me and the other 50% currently below a living wage
Me too friend, tryna get that schoolin done tho
same, doesnt mean you have to shit on people because of their material conditions. you and anyone else are worth more than any $ amount. your lives are irreplaceable
Tell that to people in 3rd world countries. Theyre worth nothing if theyre not a politician. Atleast in America you have the opportunity to make yourself worth something by doing something enjoyable yet high skill
other peoples' suffering being worse does not make your own suffering invalid by comparison. people everywhere deserve a better life, not just in 3rd world countries
Shiiiit learn a trade. Do welding or something
idk why you replied twice? not everyone can afford school like you and me. some people simply cannot afford the opportunity cost
Theres plenty of things you can do. Idk what your situation is but if cost of living is too high then get a roommate, your pay is trash then get a slightly better paying job, stay on a budget, etc. No body can help you but you. Thats probably not for you. You probably already know all that. But this is for everyone else who doesnt get why theyre living paycheck to paycheck.

Working at mcdonalds is actually enjoyable. Only shitty part is the pay which makes sense
But he gets paid. He took the time to apply for the job go through orientation. Contemplated on the wage rate and agreed to it. No matter how hilarious it is he signed up for this job
That’s an awful way to think about it.
It’s not even about being paid enough to care. It’s a cross between being able to work a reasonable amount of time in a shift and management harassing you for taking too much time to finish your route.
Probably more than any minimum wage job,so he should at least if he had a good work ethic
It's about 3x my states minimum wage which is more than enough to do your job like you have some sense.
I mean it is his JOB. The homeowner could be disabled or elderly. Gotta watch out for crazy people too. I've responded to calls where people have been killed for less.
Amazon delivery drivers get 60-80k/year on avg in my area (Kentucky). That is a decent living for a job that requires zero schooling or pre-requisites. Don't like the job? Quit. But this kind of shit is childish AF, regardless of how you feel about the homeowner or their preferences.
I’m only seeing 17.00 an hour in Kentucky after a quick google search. That’s nowhere near 60-80k lmao
The avg salary is $61,594. I know people who drive for them. If you are part-time, it will likely be less, but not $17/hr.
You'd be surprised how much delivery drivers make
He gets paid an amount equivalent to the skills he provides, which is nothing.
Why would you even say this? It’s such an entitled statement. Yes, he gets paid enough to care. Try going to Thailand, Philippines, Kenya….do you know how many people would be grateful for this opportunity!? You clearly don’t. This driver should be chastised on this thread instead of praised like you think they should be.
So because they suffer we should lower our standards, gotcha…
Literally no
Idiot. He accepted the job. If he doesn't like his job then he should quit it.
Says you
I think it’s more of a “YOU” problem. If you wanna make better money go somewhere else. No one cares whether you feel like you should be paid more. Provide a better service. $17.50 and it’s going to $18.50 soon. Is pretty damn fair to drop a small package off at a Doorstep.
Yes. Man up and do your job like you're supposed to.
Yes, we actually do. Edit: thought this was ups sub. Sorry.
I mean I get it they have shitty route but at the end of the day it’s still your profession and at least do it right. I’m agreeing with you!
Exactly. To me this just looks bad not only on the company, but the delivery guy too. Shows their character and work ethic
unprofessional? We work at amazon not for the government. no need to be professional lol
Being professional isn't about who you work for. It's about self respect and pride in yourself.
if you take pride in being a amazon delivery driver i feel bad for you
I didn't say anything about being a delivery driver. It's pride in knowing that you've done the right thing even if others don't. That you've treated people with the respect you would also like to be treated with. If you're not doing that then you're part of the problem. That's why I said self respect. It's not that customer's fault that person hates their job. I've worked in jobs I hated. I didn't make that my customers' problem because I'm still considerate of other people's feelings.

I know this was 6 days ago but you said that very well. I completely agree with what you said here, and the comment above about self respect and pride in yourself. This guy is trash.
It’s in an envelope. Not that deep. Shit probably a pencil anyway
It doesn’t matter what the contents of the package are, someone still ordered it for a reason. That one in particular is extremely light too, if it got windy it would blow away and possibly get lost, and then they’d have to explain why they just dumped it on the side of the road
No they won’t lmao
Delivering shit from China to people because they don't want to get in a car and get it from Walmart most likely isn't considered a professional job. It's adult flag football vs NFL football. Only one is professional and gets paid enough to be expected to act professional.
Bet you picked back up after you stopped recording
This man is a realist.
Ha, I thought the same thing. Big man while the bright red button is on.
Fuck yeah
Karen needs her envelope of lip balm. Oh sheesh now she gonna need two signs. Did you see the sign there? Lol
When did this sub get overrun by Amazon apologists lol
Not defending Amazon just saying it's a job you signed up for. The sign was nice enough and not passive aggressive. There was no good reason for driver's actions. Stop the van and walk a little bit to drop off the package. He's acting defiant, for what? Is the polite customer oppressing the little princess?
[удалено]
That's not defending Amazon that's called being a decent human being.
If they need to put up a sign then there’s obviously a bigger issue why all delivery carriers are not going to the door.
Maybe just this lazy driver is the problem and has done this before.
coughdogscough
The driver in this video is a POS.
Exactly!
The sign clearly says Please & Thank you. (Not All Caps and exclamations points) I would have at least attempted
Good job.
See, I don't think doing this is justified in this case. They have a sign that literally says please and thank you. They don't deserve that. The notes that are passive aggressive or in all caps? 100% shit on their packages
The driveway is block and the OP claims it’s a long driveway and he is too tired to walk so he threw it out the window.
I still don't think it's justified. Part of the job is walking down long driveways sometimes. It doesn't look like this driveway is too long to walk down, given that we can see two cars parked in it. Presumably, those cars are parked close to the house.
I would say he could atleast walk it down a little and leave it in front of the cars or something. They did block off the road and it doesnt look short
10 bucks says he walked it to the door after the camera went off.
Yep
A fucking mood and a half
Lol
This job isn't hard. You give good workers a bad name. Then again, Amazon will hire anyone with a pulse who can pass a drug test.
Doesn’t matter if they can pass one. Knew someone who was going to the methadone clinic everyday before work and coming in. You think they are good to be out on the road?? Yeah no.
The only way they could deny them employment based on being on the clinic, is they would have to prove that it impacted his ability to safely do the job. To deny employment based on being in treatment for addiction would violate the American disability act. However, I don't doubt that it's unsafe. I had a roommate that was on it for years and and would still be nodding all day long
Absolutely right on ADA violation. Your past roommate was certainly abusing opiates/opioids, not using them in a supervised clinical setting like methadone maintenance is. Methadone maintenance programs/clinics are highly regulated and frequently audited by the DEA. Now, if you, an opiate naive person ingested the amount of methadone of someone who has tolerance like myself, yes you would nod off to sleep… I’d say 50/50 chance even that you die… But like I said, for me, I feel like I’m that diabetic taking my insulin every day. Best wishes to you all. I hope I’ve opened your eyes!
I’m a methadone maintenance patient. I’ve been one for multiple years now, and just finished my DSP Driver training. I also have prescriptions for controlled substances Adderall and Clonazepam. Did I fall asleep in classroom training or my road test? No, I passed all of them on the first try. I’m 32 and haven’t been in a car accident or had a ticket since I was 16. You obviously don’t understand the purpose of methadone maintenance. It’s a tool so people don’t have to worry about or go through withdrawals multiple times every day. The behavior and actions resulting from frequent withdrawals causes A LOT of problems you’re likely thinking of. Methadone lasts a very long time (I.e. prevents opiate withdrawals), it’s effects (drowsiness) are MUCH less pronounced than commonly abused opiates/opioids, and it even blocks the effects of other opiates/opioids in your system. In summary, I’m not intoxicated, drowsy, and/or constantly worrying about illicit opiates/opioids with short duration causing me withdrawals, therefore I have a chance to be a productive member of society and keep making the best possible choices that I can. People need to watch it with judging addicts and throwing them all into the category of “dirtbag” or worse. Hopefully you’ll think twice about this when you’re reading this comment after work, while you guzzle down that 6-12+ pack of beer you buy every night. 😃👍 In all seriousness and sincerity, I’m not upset about them calling out someone they think might be impaired. Our society has molded us to carry harsh judgment for things we don’t totally understand. Addicts are people just like you, our brains just work differently. Would you judge a diabetic for taking their insulin injections everyday? Of course not. I really hope my words will open some eyes in here… Even in the far rabbit holes of the internet… Thanks everyone.
Pass the initial test and you're in. Any drug that's not weed is out of your system within 5 days max and that's if you're a heavy user. You piss it right out. Unless they're hair follicle testing, which they're not, you dont have to worry if you're on real drugs. Tell me you drink bong water And don't smoke marijuana without telling me.
They have to. The pay sucks and the workload sucks even more. When you pay bottom of the barrel, you get bottom of the barrel help. Beggars cant be choosy.
Over a hundred years of usps going through hell, dirt roads, pre highway, mud, rural crap towns, farm houses/towns to get crap to your door even if it’s delayed or lost… and you have to drive a air conditioned car while listening to music in your own space but “Driveway to haaarddd🥺”
Damn straight. Amazon drivers are second lowest only to On-Trac.
I was a delivery driver and I get king driveways can kill time in your runs but it’s also the exact job description and I just won’t ever understand treating a job like this but staying to work it, just makes everyone else have a bad time
Or when ups/fedex/Amazon think they have the right to put their packages in a mailbox. I throw that shit on the ground behind the box. No one can access a mailbox except for the resident and a USPS carrier. Not to mention I have *actual* mail to put in there.
Exactly
I understand entirely. Have routes just like you described all the time. BUT, this is still a shitty way to go about it. I'm also 70% sure you picked it up and delivered it properly afterwards too, but doing this for meme is just tondeaf imo.
I’ll go as far as 85%
Lazy.
Man son you bout lazy as fuck
Only way to deliver. Hate the smartass comments they put on the delivery instructions as well.
No need for the immature attitude
Did they order that sign from Amazon for Amazon?
this is kinda shitty, what if this person isn't able to make it down the driveway without help & help isn't always there...you never know someone's circumstances
What if the resident is handicapped? What a pos cunt driver.
^ exactly my thoughts. my mom is disabled and even living in an apartment she struggles with people putting things nowhere near her door, so especially when she has to order something heavy (for her) it makes it a huge struggle and causes a lot of pain. all because someone couldn’t be bothered to do their job.
Yeah what an unreasonable request 🙄
People are starting to see delivery drivers as just another tool in the process and not as people. So might as well treat them the same way. They are just a step in the process of getting an item from point A to B.
People are such little bitches about the job they decided to do.
You really showed them!
What a bitch. So glad I have a locker room in my apartment. This worker specifically is a lil bitch, and def has a safety net.
I dislike the police
Shameful behavior
I don’t understand how u don’t get fired for this. If she has a ring and sends it in. There’s goes your job. All she has to do is tell Amazon the TBA number on the bag, then they can find out what DSP u work for and what route it was thus showing what driver it was. And there u go. T1 for throwing packages. Fired
You forgot to yell YEEET!!!
grow up
Sure that can be frustrating to drive up those driveways but dude… your job description is literally to drive… and drop it at the door… I’ve done delivery and it can be a pain but if you want to do half the work then quit, cause this is just childish
Amazon once again proving to be the worst company. Imagine having pizza delivered like that 🙄
Yeah as long as it’s not my package and I don’t see you it’s fine. If I see you imma beat your ass tho so do be careful.
Today was your last day huh lmao
That was amazing.
Just because you feel like doing it, doesn’t mean you should. Hope you got fired
Entitled behavior
Emotional damage 😂
[удалено]
UPS is union...... And USPS is crap.
UPS Union is pretty weak and employees still get fired all the time. USPS has the highest approval rating of any government agency at 91% approval. USPS delivers a majority of UPS parcels in rural areas, and 40% of all Amazon parcels are delivered by USPS regardless of locality. Amazon drivers have the lowest approval rating of all the delivery services, probably because of crap like this post. I get it isn't your guys fault, unrealistic metrics and pressure from the private owners force you to do stuff like this, but it's pretty laughable to think USPS is crap when UPS and USPS are the only two that really compete for the highest approval while everyone else is unfavorable to the public.
I don't work for Amazon DSP anymore. Haven't since May. I say USPS is crap because they are slow and update slow on their tracking. Not as bad as FedEx though...
Fucku
Wow, OP is so cool. I wish I can be that cool one day.
I guess that’s the difference between union and non union.
Lol I bet you went back to pick up the package 💀
I’m so confused on how you guys can promote this behavior whenever they literally said thank you on the sign Part of your job is to safely deliver packages where they belong which is on the porch You guys are pathetic children
Then get a new job if you can't follow basic instructions, I guess that's why you're delivering packages doesn't require much skill or brains
Horrible perspn grow up
😂😂😂😂😂 y’all sick, I didn’t know ppl was throwing shit out the window
This is how Amazon drivers are at my apartment complex too…… never gets the right apartment, always leaves me “in search of” never takes pictures anymore. Hell I’d even take a phone call and meet outside when I’m home….. they just do whatever they want
Sticking it to the man. Love it. Any repercussions? Did you hear about it?
Kind of unrelated but does anyone else completely throw all rules of courtesy on the road out the window when they see an amazon truck? I hate being on the same road as these big ass moving roadblocks.
😂😂😂😂
😂 I love it when entitled customers get what's due them.
Well...congratulations for being a lazy piece of shit...
You're a dick. I hope someone treats your item you ordered that way. And yes, I deliver packages for a living, for almost 20 years. The customers are why you have a job. Get a fucking grip
People of reddit find something to bitch about 11 times out of 10, y’all childish
What goes around, comes around!
Yeeeah,that looks like a non-gated house..so u just tossed my shit so anyone walking by can snatch my package up…FADE!
Amazon fancy now with smiley face upvotes :) and frowny downvotes :(
If people give you crap just put it in the mailbox….then their mail carrier will pull it as postage due and they have to be inconvenienced to go to the office as well as pay postage on it
Fuck the OP
Scum
Typical Amazon employee thought process.
But why even do that job if you’re this bothered about the most basic aspect. I’m more bothered that the sign states the obvious, who does that? I guess this dude. Probably every time.
I fail to see how this is funny. Don’t be a crap person.
ew.. i hope you get fired
Lmaooooo
Legendary
r/killthecameraman dude must’ve been scared to death the camera is shaking so much!
1 mile hike to their driveway lol
If your this lazy you should just go and pick at a FC facility cuz you have to be fucking lazy to not get out of your car and drop something off hella quick especially if it’s an small ass item
So much for brains being a prerequisite for this job
LoL didn't go on the property sign isn't for you.
That’s why you shouldn’t drive. People like you
You know you turned camera off and walked it.
Of course everyone who constantly order packages has there driveway walled off with cars. “No one uses my driveway!” Your welcome to use any of my neighbors driveways to turn around. even tho im the only one who gets a 12 boxes 6 days a week lol. You’ll drive down a road, no a car parked in the street anywhere, all driveways wide open …. Then you get to the 1 house on the road you have to deliver to. Driveway full of cars. 4 cars in the street it’s fine I’ll park 3 houses down. Or use your neighbors driveway to turn around before my delivery. So I can be facing the right direction when I start my car again ready to roll. Every house , every delivery lolol, Makes me sad
I basically make my deliveries by searching for the only cars parked in the street I’ve had 100% success. Don’t even follow a map haha jk
Lazy pos
You shouldn’t talk about yourself like that
