That's a heinous company to work for. I'm glad we cancelled our Amazon prime. All upsers should go this route. They want to hurt ups.

Well well, this mimics FedEx Home Delivery process exactly! Except that other Amazon Flex service, which is a different process

But I won't do #2 in the back of the van. U condition yourself to poop first thing at home in the AM, or before leaving for the first stop. Then again at home in the PM

No eating taco Bell, beans, anything hot n spicy during the work week; save the laxative foods for Sundays

At least he's being paid by the hour... The CA driver in the first paragraph...

But yeah, it seems they are copying HDs delivery process
