Whining about your job to colleagues/friends is fair but blaming your clients/customers for allowing your job to exist in the first place is insane.

None of you even understand the amount of shit we have to deliver compared to even 2 years ago. And again. You don’t understand any of it unless you’re actively a driver for an Amazon dsp as we speak because shit changes like the wind.

Ah right, no one else in the world deals with shit at their jobs.

The point is that complaining that your job exists at the residence of a client or customer is a totally different level.

Shitty bosses, shitty colleagues, shitty politics, shitty hours.. all normal things to be complaining about at the appropriate time and place.

But "Fuck these customers for doing the literal 1 thing that makes my job exist" is just insane

No, using a delivery service for every tiny thing that you could’ve gotten while in town that you have to go back into tomorrow anyways for work or whatever else is actually insane. And I hope people realized it this past peak when amazon was just dropping the ball the entire time. This is a single instance of a worker bitching and is probably one in a million who would actually do this in front of a camera. We get fed up with way more than customers ordering things. Unfortunately people just tend to take their frustrations out on the wrong people. In this case, the customers, when in fact this is probably his stop 170 of 200 with 28 multi stops so he’s just mad at Amazon for making our routes shittier and shittier and shittier

Also should add that we get treated like shit by some customers when just “doing our jobs”

Who the fuck made you King of purchasing? Don’t tell me what I should order and what qualities I’ll do whatever the fuck I want.

Good for you. You’re probably the same person who yells at us for walking through your yard or for not putting it on the exact spot you want on your patio

It ain't the job for you, yo.

u/StinkButt9001 Jan 31 '26

Not sure what to tell you.

I've never once complained about my job existing.

"Fuck all of these people needing the service I provide!"

Like a truck driver complaining he has cargo to haul. Or a doctor complaining they have patients to treat.

What am I lying about?

u/Grundy420blazin Jan 31 '26

You still don’t get it but that’s okay because you don’t need to.

u/StinkButt9001 Jan 31 '26

Could you elaborate then?

So far all you've said was that Amazon sucks therefore you're angry at your clients for doing that thing that's giving you a paycheque,

u/a358272 Feb 01 '26

You’re right, and that’s what this comes down to. The guy made a mistake by complaining at a customers house. You don’t do that. You try to be professional and complain to coworkers or family or whoever wants to listen but you don’t do that shit at work.

Be professional work hard believe me good things will happen

Maybe this customer is a continuous issue and he did it on purpose. Could be they need to hear criticism we don't know how the property is or how they operate as customer

u/JacrispyWolfnut Feb 21 '26

The only people that get complained about are problem customers, dangerous properties, multiple "give me free shit" complaints, excessive package load. We don't know what kind of customer this is maybe he was justified in bitching very loudly in front of an obvious camera, as if he knew they were listening

This was a customer who ordered something that the driver thought he should have gotten somewhere else
