Top Comments of this video!! :3
The main problem is that thereâs TOO many packages coming in. For a lot of drivers we do have to pee in bottles because if we try and to find a bathroom we lose time and then we scolded when we bring back packages. Sometimes even written up. Edit: one day shipping should NOT be a thing, seriously.

I was an Amazon delivery driver. I lasted 4 days. They tell you itâs a 12 hour shift, but they donât tell you that youâre expected to be out there delivering until all of your packages are dropped off. I quit before they fired me. And not all the customers are happy to see you. A few times, I feared being assaulted or shot by suspicious men.

This video is so funny because I used to work at Amazon and can confirm it's all true. I worked sortation and the drivers were some of the most nervous, angry, and anxious people you'd ever meet. We couldnt go home until every package was accounted for, and sometimes all that occurs is that the scanner just didnt register with Amazon systems even if it makes the confirmation beep. During the holidays we racked up to 20,000 packages per day. At the start of every shift, we did stretches and some kinda cheer for our sortation facility but then everyone's faces return to looking absolutely dead. I used to work at a factory making jewlery and NOBODY looked as dead as those people at Amazon. It is truly a profound experience.

Since you're part of a separate company who just so happens to have an exclusive contract with Amazon, Unionizing would be challenging.
If a DSP unionizes, Amazon would simply terminate their contract with that DSP and pay for a new one. In order for DSP drivers to unionize, you need to convince the other separate DSPs to unionize as well.

I worked at the airport and we also always had strict time constraints. But we could always report delays such as defects, traffic jams, technical problems or toilet stops in the app, so that no negative evaluation happened to us in the app. Amazon should introduce something like that, everything else is inhumane.

I currently work for them now just a summer gig tho before my semester starts. I get around 130-180 stops on average which has about 200-280 packages. It can get crazy but I have learned from other more experienced drivers that organizing your van in the morning when you load is critical!!! Before you deliver. That determines how your day will go, once I got that in check I finish my route way before the time that is needed. My days go fast, no one bugs me, easy money, itâs super chill. I for sure recommend this because itâs an easy job but of course every station is different. Iâm lucky mine is filled with super friendly and chill people, Iâve heard other places are way mores strict than ours and they can be annoying.

Everything this lady said, all of it is true. If Amazon could shorten the routes, itâll put less stress on the drivers. Then on another note, these DSPâs you work for, they donât really fix any problems as simple as a headlight bulb. If theyâre so concerned about safety issues, why canât they fix something so simple. Current DSP driver here btw.

I guess I can wait an extra day for whatever useless crap I just bought if it means that my fellow American can use a real restroom or not risk lives on the road.
