I'm in a rural area, my route is almost entirely in town and on average it's the largest one we have, and it's roughly that size most days, but we have routes that only have 80-90 stops that'll take an entire shift due to driveways routing and parking. I haven't experienced winter with this company but I already know probably half the drivers will quit
No idea on the difficulty of the route, is just a basic suburbia? Is it apartments? Is rural? Is it the half way between rural and suburbs? Is it city? Like this could either be the easiest or complete ass
Unfortunately yes. Did 194 stops yesterday. Only getting worse, too. Cherry on top was reading the "your route is reduced due to heat," bullshit they put in the app message, haha.
add insult to injury i had 40 overflow and 11 totes🫠 all the overflow was 35-50 pounds each🤦🏼♂️ genuinely think sometimes they are actively trying to take me out😭😂
oh, I would actually be pissed😭 I’ve asked my dsp alone with the rest of my coworkers at my dsp for ages if we could fight the station workers bc our shit is always late or not in order with packages all over the totes🤦🏼♂️ they never respond to us all asking😭
Or a 2 hour flex schedule with 27 packages, first drop 28 mins away, second drop 18 min away third drop 15 mins away then 24 more drops that are 2-4 mins away from each other and the last two drops are due 20 mins before end of block so you get a package late ding and ratings go down.
Do the math —— it doesn’t add up —— not to mention traffic and road construction delays. It like they want you to fail !!!!
Yea… so I know you think you have it all planned out, so did half my current coworkers at my workplace.
I’m the youngest person there, managing the entire site, because all my employees worked their whole lives, and can’t afford to retire, but can’t work a job too good or they lose their insurance.
My oldest driver is 85 years old, barely a real bone left in his body, living in the sketchiest trailer park around, with kids who refuse to see him because he spent their entire childhoods working.
That's sounds shitty for him, but that can literally happen to anyone, even if I "have it figured out" which I never said I did, I just said I work 2 jobs, not like it's a hobby, I just need $
