I got a swag bag full of snacks and a Liquid Death Tea. A lady also gave me a bag of puppy chow Chex mix, I gave it away because I have a weird thing about eating people’s food that I don’t know, but it was a nice gesture. But I didn’t get any green backs tho.
one time an old lady caught me delivering to her door and came out with a cookie in a paper towel and asked if i wanted it, i said "sure, thanks", and she said "just know it's really spicy" and she laughed that off and closed the door. she had pepper plants in her front yard but i thought she mustve been joking. i took a bite in the van and didn't taste anything but chocolate chip cookie, then a took another bite and my mouth was covered in jalepeño for some reason. to be fair she did warn me
Yesterday? I got a Frappucino from my 3rd to last stop. Could have grabbed all three but I'm fat. The day before? One lady gave me a gift bag with chocolates and a $50 bill, and another lady gave me a $10 Starbucks card.
tips…? what are tips? 🤣 I have never gotten a tip working for amazon I think one christmas time 2 years ago i got a Mcdonald’s gift card for $15 ( which was great don’t get me wrong ) but that’s it
I know that sounds crazy, but when you start to count on making a certain amount, it’s tough to go back.
Also, we got virtually no OT this year even though we did close to double the volume of the last 2 years.
I’ve been there 10 years so I have a good idea of what I should make during peak season. So when it ends up being $5k less than that, in a year where I already took a $5k hit in salary, it’s tough. I was counting on peak season and it failed me for the first time in a decade.
It’s not, when as I’ve said, I have a decade of data to support my expectations. Don’t take it personal, but I get to know my customers a lot better than the average Amazon worker. They’ve been seeing my face pretty much 6 days a week for the past 3 years.
I don’t get paid hourly. And I took a $5k salary cut this year. Some people lost $20k off their annual salary. Seems like something a lot of people would be upset about.
$500 a night in tips for what span of time? The week leading up to Christmas?
Not sure if you’re trolling. I wasn’t being unreasonable in what I said. And plenty of city carriers are making $500 a night (over a short span). I know carriers that have made $6-7k in Christmas tips.
A Friendly customer was bbqing some Pig Poppers and i normally dont like jalapenos but he insisted and it was fire! Hopefully i deliver to him again next year!
I probably would’ve got tips yesterday if they’d put me in my normal rich golf course community, but for some reason I was in the boonies so all I got was a Gatorade a water and two cookies 😭
I got a fucking chocolate bar and I don't even eat chocolate. Fuck these customers. I did get almost 30 thank your driver the last 2 weeks though so thar was nice.
20$, 5 bags of chips, couple of water bottles and some sweet tea, couple of full size hershey bars, some other candy, some trail mix. Basically went mini trick or treating

Restaurants TYPICALLY don't have animals that can and sometimes do roam free around the place getting onto counters and into food.

Yesterday? I got a Frappucino from my 3rd to last stop. Could have grabbed all three but I'm fat. The day before? One lady gave me a gift bag with chocolates and a $50 bill, and another lady gave me a $10 Starbucks card.
$212.56
Nothing
I got 200$ from my regulars. Plus dinner to go from another. 3 beers, a bottle of alcoholic eggnog and a bunch of cookies lol
Some Ferrero rochers, not complaining, made me smile
I had 162 stops and didn't get anything 🙃
At least you got home early right? 162 stops isn’t bad unless you aren’t working diligently
Nah it wasn't bad I was just saying that the more stops you do the higher chance of someone giving you something
Gotcha
tips…? what are tips? 🤣 I have never gotten a tip working for amazon I think one christmas time 2 years ago i got a Mcdonald’s gift card for $15 ( which was great don’t get me wrong ) but that’s it
Here’s a tip don’t work for amazon

Tips sucked this year as a mailman. This was my 3rd year on my route. $1200 the first year, $2600 last year, and only $800 this year.

Counting on making x amount of tips at a job with no tip base is crazy

I figured the connection, I sometimes see drivers talking to customers for a while lol but obviously it’s how you say, you actually get to know them
bro so you get an hourly on top of tips? that’s more than any of us Amazon drivers get. Go complain in a different subreddit
We are all in this shit together dude chill
