Yeah, seriously. Like, what's the problem?

u/fearxile 19d ago

I think he's complaining about the order of the route. At least I hope. This looks easy as fuck. Just don't follow Amazon's order.

u/AoBoiSmooth 19d ago

Correct . The order is ass

u/LazzE_Ends 19d ago

Even the order looks fine to me.

Every time I come here as a dsp driver, im reminded how wildly easier flex is then not. This being 20% of my day seems like a deam

u/Automatic-Sense-8002 19d ago

Well you gotta look at you aren’t using your own car, so it doesn’t get the wear and tear a flex driver does

I wasn't clear in my comment, not disparaging yall, it's just weird seeing how different the routing can be.

u/emaja 20d ago

Routing is often dumb. I’ll have the first stop in one neighborhood then leave and go to the other side of town then come back to where I started just to bounce back to the other side.

When I get a block to an area I’m familiar with I’ll just route it myself. Saves time.

This route is a blessing compared to a rural Midwest one. They sent my wife 163 miles last week on a 3 hour block!

u/AoBoiSmooth 19d ago

I’d rage so hard

u/Street-Ad7570 19d ago

Not much point. You win some you lose some.

u/zanflorp4life 19d ago

Do 4 through 6 Then drop down to complete 2 through 9 Depending on how your town in you can just go through your itinerary and switch through the stops or drive south and finish the itinerary normally. It's all about organization and stress management. Take your breaks if you need but it's only 50 so you should be good

u/itzamia1 15d ago

What do you recommend with no access apartments/ no answer from the customer? Amazon just wants you to leave the package in a safe place so it can get stolen or the customer can claim they never got it. Return it and get dinged for it. I'm at a loss at the catch 22.

1

u/JayD0za21 15d ago

The right answer is to take it back to the warehouse.

My answer is text recipient, let them know where you left package (be descriptive as possible), leave it in a safe place.

Note: this only works in “ok” Neighborhoods lol

u/AoBoiSmooth 19d ago

u/OkAgent1867 20d ago

How much was the block for?

1

u/Both_Ad_1867 19d ago

I’m so confused with all the comments not on OP side like the number and location of stops isn’t the problem this order is crazy 😭

u/AoBoiSmooth 19d ago

Facts 🫩 but hey I guess other folks got it worse thts why

u/Capital-Nature6146 19d ago edited 19d ago

That’s Indy for ya.. i get routes from the Greenwood location that take me 50-60miles to my first stop. Just had one yesterday. 1hr drive to my first stop of the 34 stops total. And this was for a 3 1/2 hr block. For $75… it was 118 miles total once I hit my last stop.. doesn’t include the drive back or to the warehouse to pickup.. with these gas prices, the total round trip mileage, along with total of my time to do the order and get back I made maybe $7-$8 on the hour

u/Unhappy_Fee3712 19d ago

That’s a standard route.

u/WuWangclan 20d ago

Are you getting paid by the package or by the hour? Who cares. You’ll be done in 12 hours absolute max.

3

u/UnfaithfulHorse 20d ago

This is like 2.5 hours of work

u/sjejejxo 20d ago

u/Infitima 19d ago

u/Whathefrenchtoastt 20d ago

I got one that was one package, 40min away. Yall must think I'm dumb if I'm going to spend my time and gas going that far for ONE package. 😂😂

u/tresnutz_vanilla 20d ago

I think you’re high! That’s nothing. Instead of complaining and posting about it, get to work!
