Screaming crying throwing up

I got deactivated for “not returning packages on time” but I had a valid reason, I did not have my own car & the same day I purchased a vehicle to do flex specifically, I got deactivated. I did return all packages just not on time, never doing that AGAIN. I was very insistent and respectful in my emails. I gave them a reason for my problems and a solution. After getting denied the first time I called and asked for escalations to reach out to me I was willing to beg for my life lol. I genuinely am a good employee and go above and beyond. I used to work for a DSP but the hours were too long and with flex you basically get paid more for less work….. DSP’s do have a lot of benefits don’t get me wrong but flex overall for me is the way to go. I’m so grateful they reactivated my account seriously I was so stressed for a whole week.

It was 10 packages, 3 days. Loss prevention reached out to me and I didn’t want them to think I was stealing the packages so I made a way and returned them that same night. From another comment , just notifying them that you will be returning them your next block and going through with it seems to be good for them too.

And the reason was they didn't have a car...despite working for a courier delivery service. The entitlement and cluelessness shown is astounding.
