[QUOTE="Zowert, post: 5606042, member: 71957"] Yeah it’s been pretty light for the last month or so. I used to go out with around 170 stops, I’d get 10+ hours out of it. Now I’m averaging around 130 stops, but I still manage to get 10 hours in simply because I’m covering a wider area. Amazon is all over the place on my route, from vans to package cars, electric vehicles, rentals and box trucks. It’s not uncommon to see two of them delivering on the same street. I was talking to this Amazon driver that had to be at least 50 years old. He showed me his rabbit thing they use to run routes, this dude was pulling 255 stops. It said 189 stops, 255 locations with 66 “grouped stops”. I asked what that was all about and he just said it’s Amazon’s way of putting more stops on drivers. I was just like Jesus dude that’s a lot of work, they better be paying you well. Anyway, I think Amazon’s DSP thing is the reason volume has been so light, for me at least. [/QUOTE]
