      My first shift was amazingly horrible I had to drive an hour to get to the area I was delivering it was waay out in the country with no street lights or cell phone service I had to deal with dogs gate washout roads and my last delivery looked like a scene from the hills have eyes it was at la winery that was closed that was six miles down a dark dirt road where I got a flat and could not deliver I made it home 2 hours after my stop time even though I could not make my last 2 deliveries so far I’m not going back

    Thank you for this it was really helpful the warehouse I go to so disorganized. I had a route today that the packages were missing. I have packages that weren’t supposed to be in there. The route was all messed up. It had me going really far then back to my location and then far again. I think it’s very exhausting compared to other gig jobs.

    Mike, watched many of your blogs related Amazon Flex because I had interest in March 2024 to try the gig. WOW, what a disappointment and economic loss Flex was. All offers were at $18 an hour. Drove >500 miles in Nashville area, multiple pickup locations. Did four blocks, paid $262. All four blocks were in the rural suburbs around Nashville. Compensation averaged over these four trips $0.68 per mile, one trip was 196 miles, four hours X $18 = $72. Considering the IRS estimates $0.67 per mile to operate a vehicle your labor income is nominal.
    This is one of the lower paying gigs I’ve tried. At least with both Lyft and Uber you know where you’re going and can reject the majority of low paying offers. Amazon may leave (end of block) >50 miles from your home, killing any chance of making a profit.
    Good luck with Amazon, not for me. Here for the capital gain not the empty cash flow.

    2024 Amazon flex isn't what it used to be! First Now full of drivers but the huge problem is the BOTS! Amazon is the KING of the BOTS! Routes now are more Rural than in the city, where these houses are in the middle of nowhere and you have to face really rough paths that can damage your car and guess what! 😢Amazon is not responsable for what happens to your car. Also add this rural houses have huge dogs...

    I find it bonkers you can't deliver to mailboxes like here in UK. And we are told we must scan each package as we load vehicle. And if you follow Amazon process we don't get dinged for undelivered packages. AND most important we are not at risk of being shot! UK flex feels more driver friendly.

      Take a sharpie and look at your route stops and write the numbers on the packages. Place the low numbers in the front seat and higher numbers in the back seat or load the higher numbers in first and then the lower numbers. Therefore as you complete your stops you are working your way to the back (higher numbers). I hope this helps.
