However, the post and accompanying video are no longer available, as the post was subsequently removed from Reddit. The Reddit user who made the post attached a video of the incident. The driver then got out of his vehicle and held up a makeshift stop sign to prevent other drivers from proceeding through the intersection, allowing a whole fleet of Amazon vans to pass through the intersection while ignoring the stop sign. The driver positioned their vehicle such that it blocked two lanes of traffic. However, recently, there have been reports that Amazon drivers are placing the public at risk as they hurry to customers’ homes and businesses in an attempt to get packages to their destination on time.įor example, in a recent ( but now deleted) Reddit post, a motorist explained that an Amazon driver blew through a stop sign, coming to a stop in the middle of the intersection. Your training days will (or should) give you - more.Online retailer grew into a household name over the past several decades due largely to the company’s ability to deliver packages to customers within days-sometimes hours. You are in and out, in and out but you develope your own system of sorting to make your life easier. It's not for everyone, keeping up the pace is the main issue most new drivers face. It's a good honest days work for a not half bad pay. If you ARE falling behind for whatever reason the stupid fool who's just finished his marathon will have to come to you and help you out, take some parcels off you etc.

Most of the Delivery Service Providers have great admin. If you're completing routes early running around like a fool Amazon add more to it over time via their algorithm. Some people seem to think you need to run around like an idiot but you don't. It's easily manageable, I dilly dally most of the time, I even make time to eat my lunch and take a break. I do anywhere from 140-170 stops a day (9 hours route), 220 to 270 parcels. Besides the fact there's facilities all over the place if you are desperate (garages, pubs, restaurants) all of which cannot legally refuse you to use their facilities. If you're used to this kind of work then your body gets used to it too. I've never had to go in a bottle, or take a number two in the woods. People complain about all sorts of things but it's not a bad job at all.

I've never had that elsewhere, you never used to know what you were turning up to each day. I want my job to be ready to go and I am ready to do my job. All I want when I turn up to work is efficiency. I've been driving for many years, for various companies.
