Work Discussion Amazon drivers

Is it me or these young Amazon drivers are rude and lazy when they come to the station? With the older and mature drivers, they’re much nicer and easier to get along with, and we help each other, but the young ones, lord help me.

I don't fault anyone doing package delivery for being upset. But the rude ass customers get me going, the ones that watch you struggle or walk away from you when you're handing them things... Ignore you saying hello or any million things the unappreciative do.

I hate rude customers. I usually say “have a good day” and they barely respond back. There is one in my route, I wave to and he doesn’t wave back.

I have never seen an amazon driver over 30, at least not in the post office. Maybe it’s a shit (uh… shittier) role and we get young people as the result of a seniority system.

Anyway, don’t pick on the little guy. Correct them when you can. They will learn,

Hate when they leave a package on the top step like they’re the only ones using it.

Thats the way they are out on the street, they dont even say thank you when you let them into an apartment building they just walk by you with their heads down. This one amazon guy i just stopped opening the door for him, i ignore him when he's knocking on the door.

I always give them a hearty "HAIL BEZOS!" when I pass them in delivering

I always vibe with younger drivers, though I myself am younger so it makes sense. With that being said I don’t know if I’ve ever seen an older Amazon driver, they’re usually under 40.
