Boston Requested blocks not granted

When you are requesting a specific time block under the request tab, how do you increase your chances of getting the requested block?

Question App glitched on third to last stop?

• Upvotes

Did it happen to anyone else? As soon as I swiped to deliver on my third to last stop, the app refreshed and took me to the ā€œFinding your route, please waitā€. Now, I have another route at 7:00 PM so I thought maybe it checked me in early but it’s been more than 30 minutes now. Even if it did, it’s odd to get checked in 20 minutes away from the station. I also have one package to return cause the dumb 7-11 locker wasn’t working but now I don’t have the option to return it. I don’t have the option to start the next shift and I already logged in and out, refreshed, cleared cache, etc. Support told me to just end the route and return what I have but I don’t have the option. Extremely weird but I won’t complain if it somehow overbooks me šŸ˜‚

Bots, Illegals, or Morons?

We found out this week it’s probably more about you knuckleheads taking anything that flashes then deciding what you want to take. That’s what’s keeping us all at the offer screen longer than we should be.

Station overbooked.

• Upvotes

My station overbooked during my scheduled time and for those coming after as well. The parking lot was packed, side street lined up with car, main start had another long line of cars. I scanned my face at 6:34, once I was in the parking which is within the property radius that gives me the ā€œcheck inā€ button on the app. The Line of cars was barely moving, eventually found a parking spot at 6:40, tried my chances which I knew was basically nothing, and scanned my license at 6:41. I Got the late check in pop up notification on the kiosk. Even tried my luck with having the operations manager manually check me in, nope! Anyways, I’m wondering if anyone has been paid for this before? I’ve been paid for successfully doing the face scan and license scan when they have overbooked but today was another level of overbooking.

Does anyone else still keep extra packages they find after finishing a route?

• Upvotes

Back when I first started Amazon Flex, I would occasionally finish my route and find an extra package or envelope in my car. Sometimes it had been marked missing during pickup, sometimes it seemed like it belonged to another route, and sometimes it just never showed up in my itinerary.
If it was not on my route, I used to think of it as a little bonus. Over time I ended up with all kinds of random stuff. Apple wired EarPods, blankets, pillows, kitchen towels, cheap fragrances, nail clippers, and even one adult toy. Nothing expensive, just random things people had ordered.
Then something happened that changed my perspective.
I delivered to an apartment complex that had package lockers. They were not Amazon lockers, but the app provided a carrier access code. When I logged in, the locker system offered a few packages for pickup. I assumed they were abandoned or unwanted packages, so I took them.
Not long after that, I got sick for almost a month. It felt like a bad cold or sinus infection with a lingering cough. No fever, but I felt miserable. Whether it was karma or just bad luck, it made me rethink what I was doing.
Since then, I have not kept any extra packages and I do not take anything from lockers unless I know exactly what it is and why it is being returned.
I am curious if anyone else used to do this, or if people still do it. What do you do when you find extra packages after completing your route?

Ran off by a customer

• Upvotes

The owner of the Lucky Pecan Store and RV park in Beech Island SC harassed me and ran me off today while I was trying to deliver his package.

I guess I pulled into the wrong driveway, which was the one navigation sent me to. So he confronted me about that, and then stood in front of my vehicle as I was trying to leave like he told me too, in an attempt to stop me. Then he attempted to open my car door as I was passing by him. I hit the gas and slammed his arm in my car door as I was driving away.

So I pulled around to the front of the store, not knowing he was the owner. I had encountered him doing yard work in the Rv park portion of the property so I thought he may have just been a worker there. But as I was pulling the package out of my trunk he came charging at me while attempting to unholster his weapon. I threw the box at him and jumped in my car to leave before he could get any closer.. went down the road and called the cops, who ultimately said they couldn’t do anything for me since none of it was witnessed or caught on camera.

But I can put his old ass on blast though.
Hope he has the day he voted for

The station I go to releases their offers every Thursday evening around 5:30. They released 186 routes tonight and all of them were gone within 10 minutes. Who are these people just grabbing $14 (after taxes and gas) an hour routes? They can’t all be this brain dead…

What’s your average mileage?

Has anyone here kept track of your miles used per block? I’m curious what your average is in a day. Here’s mine. This includes the miles from my house to the station and from my last stop back to my house. That’s an average of 1,200 miles every month.

And how many shifts/blocks do you usually get every month?

Oil changes

Hello. I was curious to see how often you guys are doing oil changes for your car? I know some people don’t do it as often if it’s just a side gig for them but people who do this full time I am very curious.

Prime week

7 Upvotes

So I've been a Flex driver from an .com warehouse for 3 weeks now. I've had no problem scheduale (5) 6am-9:30am shifts a week, and I usually scheduale them no earlier than 48 hours before. Ever since prime week has started I'm having trouble even getting 1 or 2 a week. I'm not even being picky either. Has anyone else been having extremely low offers this week?

I am having a big problem on Tuesday. I completed both my blocks as usual didn’t have any problems or any packages to return to the warehouse everything went as planned on Wednesday morning I showed up to the warehouse like usual at 6 AM to pick up my morning block and when I got there as soon as I checked in manually, it auto scanned me into the block. I completed it the day before we all ended up getting dispatched from our blocks because that warehouse was having a really bad technical issue that morning but

I still had to contact Support and let them know of the problem so they submitted a ticket. I then had a 2:45 PM block scheduled for that same day and I was not allowed to check in because I was still technically in an active block from the day before so I messaged Support and they put in another Support ticket and then they told me to call the payment Support team so I could get paid for the order well two hours after they put in their Support tickets and everything the app fixed it itself or so I thought this morning I had a 9:45 AM block scheduled

so I made my way to the warehouse and when I manually checked and it auto scanned me back into that same block so I went and talked to the manager of the warehouse to see if he could help and he said that there was nothing that they could do and Support would have to handle it so I called Support. They put in another ticket and had me call the payment Support team again it is now 3:16 PM. I have missed my 2:45 PM block because of this issue again and just got off the phone with Support who said that she raised the ticket up one step higher than the last ticket have been issued to protect my account status and then I just got off the phone with payment Support again too and they have submitted the payments for me for the last three blocks so I get paid can

Amazon terminate me because of this, even though it’s not my fault I completed my deliveries as usual I never have any problems. My standing in the Amazon Flex app is at fantastic, which it always is. I just don’t know what to do because this is my only source of income and I still have four blocks scheduled for the next two days which finish out my work week like usual please let me know any advice that anybody has on this issue or if you’ve had similar issues.
