Love them SWA Commingled routes it’s basically a nursery route with a few pickups. Amazon really tryna make us like UPS and FedEx with this. They also have strictly SWA routes which is solely just pickups. Your old hub used to run them pretty consistently 😂
hopefully when i get hired, my dsp would choose me to be that 1of20 lol been watching you since i got accepted for the job. currently about to do my 3 day training soon. i appreciate the informative videos brother.
@@LaosHouse I have done it twice but was only a couple stops and they where houses and I dropped then back of at my station. Seemed easy but my main concern would be how long it takes to do a pickup compared to a drop off.
Soon you'll be taking returns and cooking all of your customers dinner and tucking their kids in goodnight.. I worked at Kohls, they put me on Amazon returns and it's all I did nonstop until I quit! Almost a year later, my palms still look like crap but luckily I found a new job far away from anything to do with Amazon! They couldn't pay me enough to do your job!✌️
Hilarious, but what you said wouldn’t shock me at this point. Amazon can’t help themselves adding extra, unnecessary shit to do, and crap metrics that keep alienating the driver beyond their limits.
@OldSchoolGaming4Life yeah and the most infuriating thing is he has enough money to treat his employees right and still have more than he'll ever know what to do with, it's sad..
@@grilledwaffleUsed to, they usually despise having the inner workings revealed. Channel poster is probably getting by because he’s blurring anything that could be remotely considered “sensitive” so they don’t have a valid reason. Yet.
Shoot I’d love to do that, more driving, less stops, picking up only a half a dozen packages at a time. I haven’t heard of that anywhere around my station in Cali yet but I hope to hear about something soon. Awesome video as always Chris
I've had to pick up one time. It was only 1 package from a locker. His route was probably shortened because he had to go 40 minutes away before returning, that's basically an hour and a half. Mine was still 190 stops 360 packages, probably because the Pickup was in my delivery area, and return to station.
Top drivers and bottom drivers? Is that productivity? It's cool to post the top ones for motivation, by why post the bottom ones? They should just use employee numbers or something instead of public shaming lol...
Bro China has done the same but in public with electric billboards, it lists high & low "Social Credit Score" holders to shame ppl. Real dystopian stuff....
It's not as bad as you think. At Amazon our DSP does that too, it's not as big a deal as you think. Top Drivers are drivers that Amazon is 100% pleased with, and bottom drivers means Amazon is like 94% pleased with. It's all based of Cutomer Feedback, and basic policy following. And then Amazon gives each driver a score. Now lets say 5 customers give a review about the delivery. 4 are good 1 is bad. That driver is at 80%. But it's just 5 customers out of the 800-1000 for the week. Nobody really cares. It's basically just to tell those drivers to like hey don't do this or that. Amazon has a scoring System and anything less than 100% is unnaceptable. But you know there's things you can't control, like a customer that specifically requests a signature, but isn't home for some reason, they can write a complaint. Amazon will usually filter those ones out, because it's not the drivers fault. But it's other things like bad pictures and stupid shit. And the way Amazon does it is really messed up. My score has been 100% for like 6 months, and every month my score goes down. But as a driver you can check you own stats like an athlete. My shit says 100% on everything, but -64 for customer compliance even though it says 4/4. Which means I did the correct thing 4 times out of 4.
How cool. I liked your video and suddenly realized you were filming in Clifton. I grew up there and haven't been there in 25 years! Thanks for sparking great memories!!
at least you still have an account. been fighting them over section 3 for months. (have all the invoices to prove authenticity, they keep rejecting them anyway)
I'll have to rewatch with audio on. Once I get a chance. I'm pretending to watch the Donna Adelson trial with rapt fascination. Sibby has it up on the living room telly. She's none the wiser. Boo ya.
I'm surprised they are allowing you to record while working. Cool video on delivery and pickup side ....my guy supports the automation. He's making some six-figure managing multiple warehouses and teams.
It’s called a commingle route I do them here in California, it’ll range from 50-100 stops and I’ve had up to 8 pick up stops , you can even go to customers houses and pick up packages also 👍
Amazon should be picking up from their sellers and picking up their own returns rather than having all the other carriers do it. Royal mail started doing parcel pickups alongside mail deliveries a few years back most of them are Amazon Returns and we only have tiny little vans.
We feel your struggle. We have those same tiny vans and they are packed as far as the eye can see, which is about 3 inches. And they want that stuff all cleared out by 5PM. Note... we don't actually start until 11AM. Sometimes earlier, sometimes later, depending on what company you work for. It's complete insanity. Those vans aren't meant to have 400 packages in them.
yeah it aways take people a while to understand how amazion works n how rough it is they will work you like a HORSE n then throw you in the dumpster thank god i got quit years ago XD
I work at DHL in Germany. We also have to pick up packages while delivering packages. Some guys who work at our delivery station only do it, if it is a registered pickup. But you can also pick up if people randomly ask you on the streets (without being registered).
I finally got out of this but still watch you boys go through it. I loved this job but they just kept adding more rules and more bullshit. Especially being in summer texas making us turn the van off at every stop. I got frontrunner of the month from Amazon and got rewarded with more packages and more stops. Once i started getting back to the station after 10pm every day i knew i was done. Good luck out there man. Amazon, fed ex, and ups drivers are out there working damn hard
@@LaosHouse I like it because it breaks the week up , we gotta be done by 2pm and be at first pickup at 2:30. Then be back by 5pm. Idk though we haven't gotten those.routes in awhile now I think.about it
Whats the stupidest "manufacturer's packaging" you've seen? The other day we came across 3 pairs of socks, completely open to everything. Just a piece of cardboard big enough for a label, that they were stapled to. White socks, riding down the dirty rollers, getting stowed in a dusty bag. There's no way they weren't ruined before they got there.
I think it was a company that made fans they had their own special box for it. But they didn't use tape. I wrote a review to them as the guy that had to deliver it, and told them to "put fucking tape on the box." So a few weeks later I got them again, and they used tape this time.
I use to do deliveries, around 100 stops, 200 miles mostly 30-60 lb boxes, 100+ once in awhile now its mostly 60-90 lb boxes with 30-40% being over 100lbs. Use scan a stop run up hit one button and leave, now its grab a dolly, deliver furniture, hit around 10 buttons including a picture, have to always follow a customers delivery location request, and now ring the doorbell or knock while having AI cameras complaining if you drive to fast or turn to quick. Next thing will be white glove services and then we will bring rolls of TP just in case someone needs their butt wiped. All for the same under $20 an hour.
Most of my packages already come damaged.Union workers will only make it worse.I quit buying John Deere machines because unions destroyed the quality of work.
@@LoggerMane misinform. Most automakers here in the US are unionized Not to mention healthcare is also unionized So you’re telling me most cars on the road are built with poor quality?
Well those union boys are carrying their signs outside my jobsite right now. We're still earning and they keep leaving every hour to go to the bathroom and then back to standing on the side of their road with a sign.
Wild I get to see ya driving around my hometown Clifton!! The city so large we got 5 zip codes, cheers to you navigating this gigantic city and its bad traffic/drivers 😂😭
you drove by another Amazon truck right near the beginning of the video...i thought you might give the other driver a simple wave or gesture? Is there a reason you guys don't? Maybe its because you would be waving all day lol...or is it that your hand would be off the steering wheel?? Just a thought...great video. I think you're amazing at your job!!
So there's a couple of shelfs?! I thought they packed it from the back like a van. And that a pre-planned algo directed how the van is loaded with packages. The nearest items placed on the top right near the back door and the farthest items at the bottom left behind the driver.
Well, if it keeps customers from going to Staples and so on. I depend on the city bus as I am disabled, so it would be nice for Amazon to do pick ups. I am sure there is a price for pick up OR jack up prime even MORE.
Well Amazon has 1 less customer now cause the whole Prime day today and tomorrow. There was a whole bunch of things I wanted to buy cause of the "deal". But Amazon just increased there before price, crossed it out and claims its like a 45% discount when in reality its literally the exact same price. Screw Amazon.
So I work for a postal company in Canada and I have a delivery/pickup route. My route (right now) consist 119 stops and 6 regular customer pick ups and on top of that sometimes I would have 2-3 customers that will place an order for pick ups. So my pick up total could range from 8-10 customers.
@7:35. Thats near Delawanna Ave. near Rutts Hut. I used to work up there in the Data Centers. I knew that bridge and business looked familiar, unless im mistaken. Your almost at 100k. Keep grinding bro
I used to get routes like this but my dispatch (also lead driver) would go do the pickups for me and then have me do rescues. I was alright with it, easy route
I work for the usps and i have package pick ups plus mail plus amazon packages dont cry to me your ONLY delivering packages and now getting pick ups? sheeeeeesh
When I was working at my old DSP they had me on a regular/heavy route then do an amazon fresh pickup after, and still expect me to be back before the 10 hr time.
I've had a couple of these route called SWA route, so we only get like 50ish stops with 120 packages and we have to deliver everything before 2:30 which is our pick up time start and we have like 5-7 pick up and we get done by 6 pm which isn't bad but I rather have a regular route
It’s an old program that there bringing back back when I started with Amazon’s we used to have the option to come in on weekends to just do 3/4 hours and it would consist of 2/3 pick ups then they stopped it for a good while and now there re introducing it I guess.
This is actually good y’all r doing pick ups, I drive for FedEx for a contractor and I do pick ups everyday along with deliveries. Bad thing is I only get paid $140 for each day I work not hourly. Really does suck
As a business owner, I would love to be able to tap into Amazon's network of shipping. With delivery 7 days a week by Amazon drivers, it will enhance customer experience. And since Amazon is in every neighbourhood multiple times a day, I don't see whats wrong with them picking up packages, but perhaps lighten the delivery load off drivers to compensate having to make extra stops
Hey Chris there are lots of diff things you can do working for Amazon you don’t just have to do deliveries because the nice thing is you can transfer every 30 days if you change and it is something you don’t like. I have found that is is something for everyone.
Delivery Drivers don't work for Amazon. This may be true for Warehouse workers, because they do work for Amazon, but drivers are just drivers, they work for a separate company, whose sole job is delivering packages. The only other job a Driver can get is Dispatcher, but that's a position and one they will likely not get to. That's usually for the drivers with the most experience, who were promoted.
Hi Chris, I work for Deutsche Post/DHL in Germany and wanted to ask you whether these warning lights are mandatory for Amazon workers. Amazon drivers in Germany always have their hazard lights on everywhere, which surprises me, but it may well be that this is a requirement from the USA HQ. Greetings from Europe
I barley do pickups from lockers I’m looking forward to the future and see how I get pickups from customers if I’ll still be staying as an Amazon delivery driver
Is it normal in the USA to throw the parcels in front of the door, take a photo and leave? Aren't packages stolen en masse and the driver is held responsible? In Germany, every driver is held responsible for a stolen parcel.
Yep completely normal, and stuff gets stolen all the time. However in the US there is this thing called personal responsibility. Customers can request for their package to be left somwhere else, where it's not as easily visible, like the back door, the garage, behind the bushes... Once the package has been "successfully" delivered it is no longer the drivers responsibilty.
I like your content bro. I am starting as a driver soon. Going to the interview/onboarding tomorrow at noon. Hoping I can get a full 40 and pick up OT hours in the holiday season so I can save enough to get a car in early 2025. I have applied at BOTH FedEx AND Amazon and am going to do my physical/test for Fedex after I leave the Amazon interview and figure out which is better I am SO confused. I can't tell which one I will make more money with for the least amount of days. Any input, since you've done both?
I’m a new driver, let’s say you gotta deliver 2 packages to the same house but under different names, the app wants you to take 2 different pics even tho it’s at the same house. Is it a way around having to do that? Even if it’s “grouped” together it still makes you take two pics.
NOTICE TO PUBLIC: Respect Amazon Drivers on the road --- they are underpaid and doing a job you can't handle that is often next to impossible with unbearable conditions --- Stop Road Raging over a blocked street or a few minute delay, or find out what happens when someone SNAPS...!
Chris i have to ask bro. Is the grass greener over at amazon? I am thinking about switching over and I herd the packages are a lot smaller is this true? Another question is there a facility in southeast texas that's hiring?
Hey' Buddy! Do yourself a favor and the customers . Your a professional, no? Then try to conceal packages if possible. 😊 Also, why do some drivers place packages where you indicate in the app, and others just ignore it? Thanks.
Only 1 of 20ish routes at my DSP does this delivery/pickup route. It's very rare but those who have done it, what do you think?

I've had a couple of these route called SWA route, so we only get like 50ish stops with 120 packages and we have to deliver everything before 2:30 which is our pick up time start and we have like 5-7 pick up and we get done by 6 pm which isn't bad but I rather have a regular route
yep. the amazon guy at the end calls them his Swa's
W Trippie Redd song at the start!!!
It's a song that goes hard and be chill at the same time
Lucky man! 130 stops for me is a beautiful day. It would 3 hours max to finish🤣
It’s an old program that there bringing back back when I started with Amazon’s we used to have the option to come in on weekends to just do 3/4 hours and it would consist of 2/3 pick ups then they stopped it for a good while and now there re introducing it I guess.
12:01 you ain't reading your screen bro, that clearly says deliver 10 packages not pick up. :D
I've done pick ups 3 or 4 times. The most frustrating thing about pick ups was the scanning process at the end.
This is actually good y’all r doing pick ups, I drive for FedEx for a contractor and I do pick ups everyday along with deliveries. Bad thing is I only get paid $140 for each day I work not hourly. Really does suck
Me too it’s horrible
If they ever gave me 10 carts, I quit that day, move it all to my vehicle, load as much as possible, then walk out.
As a business owner, I would love to be able to tap into Amazon's network of shipping. With delivery 7 days a week by Amazon drivers, it will enhance customer experience. And since Amazon is in every neighbourhood multiple times a day, I don't see whats wrong with them picking up packages, but perhaps lighten the delivery load off drivers to compensate having to make extra stops
You don’t see anything wrong with it cause you don’t see ppl slinging 300-500 packages a day it’s rough out here sometimes
Hey Chris there are lots of diff things you can do working for Amazon you don’t just have to do deliveries because the nice thing is you can transfer every 30 days if you change and it is something you don’t like. I have found that is is something for everyone.
Delivery Drivers don't work for Amazon. This may be true for Warehouse workers, because they do work for Amazon, but drivers are just drivers, they work for a separate company, whose sole job is delivering packages. The only other job a Driver can get is Dispatcher, but that's a position and one they will likely not get to. That's usually for the drivers with the most experience, who were promoted.
Hey I also work for Amazon but I do warehouse at a TNS. I am currently a PA almost 6 years now total tenor.
I don't think I've ever seen a modded Tesla before.
Hi Chris, I work for Deutsche Post/DHL in Germany and wanted to ask you whether these warning lights are mandatory for Amazon workers. Amazon drivers in Germany always have their hazard lights on everywhere, which surprises me, but it may well be that this is a requirement from the USA HQ. Greetings from Europe
I barley do pickups from lockers I’m looking forward to the future and see how I get pickups from customers if I’ll still be staying as an Amazon delivery driver
As a brand new delivery driver idk if I care at all tbh might be easier as long as they are separated
Is it normal in the USA to throw the parcels in front of the door, take a photo and leave? Aren't packages stolen en masse and the driver is held responsible? In Germany, every driver is held responsible for a stolen parcel.
Yep completely normal, and stuff gets stolen all the time. However in the US there is this thing called personal responsibility. Customers can request for their package to be left somwhere else, where it's not as easily visible, like the back door, the garage, behind the bushes... Once the package has been "successfully" delivered it is no longer the drivers responsibilty.
People, Respect All Drivers if you know what's good for you --- It's Real on the Roads...!
Best decision I ever made was after amazon I went and got my cdl. Way better pay and way less work. screw amazon!
There are a lot of ups facilities closing, i guess Amazon is taking over
I like your content bro. I am starting as a driver soon. Going to the interview/onboarding tomorrow at noon. Hoping I can get a full 40 and pick up OT hours in the holiday season so I can save enough to get a car in early 2025. I have applied at BOTH FedEx AND Amazon and am going to do my physical/test for Fedex after I leave the Amazon interview and figure out which is better
I am SO confused. I can't tell which one I will make more money with for the least amount of days.
Any input, since you've done both?
I’m a new driver, let’s say you gotta deliver 2 packages to the same house but under different names, the app wants you to take 2 different pics even tho it’s at the same house. Is it a way around having to do that? Even if it’s “grouped” together it still makes you take two pics.
Top drivers and then listing bottom drivers. That kinda messed up. They could just list the top if they wanted.
dude my mom made me spaghetti and now im watching chris sing
W
Your mom made me spaghetti too.
NOTICE TO PUBLIC: Respect Amazon Drivers on the road --- they are underpaid and doing a job you can't handle that is often next to impossible with unbearable conditions --- Stop Road Raging over a blocked street or a few minute delay, or find out what happens when someone SNAPS...!
The driving circles are called 'Roundabouts' btw lol.
I have done a few pickups I know our company has been doing it for a while now but I don't believe there is a lot only a few a day of that.
Chris i have to ask bro. Is the grass greener over at amazon? I am thinking about switching over and I herd the packages are a lot smaller is this true? Another question is there a facility in southeast texas that's hiring?
Hey' Buddy! Do yourself a favor and the customers . Your a professional, no? Then try to conceal packages if possible. 😊 Also, why do some drivers place packages where you indicate in the app, and others just ignore it? Thanks.
