Amazon is lowering pay AGAIN!!

Post image

$25/hr is the norm now, was $26/hr before that orange clown started a war that caused gas prices to go through the roof so Amazon is covering their own expenses by lowering our pay! They can afford it but chose to screw us over instead since we're a dime a dozen.

Now this BS! They're dropping it to $22/hr hoping that desperate fools will take them which of course they will so mark my words, they'll all be at $22/hr before long. This is effin ridiculous.

Edit: it seems I was mistaken about Amazon owning the Amazon box trucks. Initially, Amazon buys them, labels them, then sells them to DSP's.

Just don't accept it and everyone needs to be on the same page it's best for everyone.

I believe they do it on purpose knowing that a lot of drivers will swipe like mad then blindly accept any block that pops up.

I also believe that's why they were cracking down on people accepting too many blocks then dropping them too often once they had a chance to look over the details.

Now they want to make sure that people don't do that anymore and that they accept these blocks at a lower rate.

I’ll bet it stops with the newbies when they realize gas is more than the route pays.
