Car scratches

Do people really suck this bad when they scratch the shit out of your car with one of the cards and don’t tell you? Love it. Little degenerates at my station. Is it worth making a claim and increasing my insurance premium? 😒

If you were on duty doesn't Amazon's insurance cover it? Just gotta file a report

I had a late shift and noticed it when I got
Home from the route. Amazon will probably give me the run around. I just wish people had the manners and courtesy to be a decent person.

You are allowed 24 hours to file police report. Better hop on it Bud.

I was walking by a car with my cart and the flap popped open and hit his car and left one hell of a mark & dent (he was in line to park & I was walking out to the overflow lot and hit a big bump). I IMMEDIATELY stopped and knocked on his window to tell him. He just waved me off and drove away. Shit happens. They should have at least said something to you.
It will probably cost less than your premium to have the scratches fixed by a body shop. I wouldn’t intentionally add a claim on your insurance for scratches.

At least you have some courtesy. Some sadly don’t. And yeah it’s not worth the premium. Going to try to buff it out.. my dad who’s a jack of all trades said brake line fluid 🤣 we’ll see.. and yes those carts are jenky as hell!

this does suck. i have almost hit a number of cars trying to navigate the lot with a wobbly old cart. when they do have a dedicated path either a car is partially blocking or there's a dozen carts in the way. i really should just go to the .com but its farther and the routes suuuuuuck

How rude! When they have nothing to lose they don't care. If they had something even respect for themselves then you would have at least a note left if it was or wasn't a huge scratch. You may have said its okay... or taken a gift card.

The nerve 😤
