[QUOTE="pizzaundies, post: 2974084, member: 67759"] I'm an Amazon Delivery Associate (DA). I'm employed by a company that's contracted by Amazon to do deliveries. I'm not Amazon Flex. I use a company vehicle and use a company phone for the GPS/scanning app. I get paid $135/day. I work 4 days a week because days are supposed to be around 10 hours. They usually end up being 10-14 hours though depending on the route. Of course there are also days where you could only take 6-8 hours. Just depends. There was a day of training where we went to the warehouse for a tour then a conference type training with a PowerPoint. They run a MVR so everyone is supposedly already a good/safe driver (hint that's not true). Then we do one ride along before we're turned loose on our own. We have a warehouse where freight is trucked in. Warehouse workers sort everything, pick everything, and load our trucks. It sucks because they don't go on road so they load however they want and we frequently get packages from other routes because warehouse workers aren't paying attention. Then it's our responsibility to deliver them anyway. I answer to my bosses, the owners of the company I work for. We have a manager as well and dispatchers. I don't like it. I used to work for Express but I had to quit because I moved and there were no open positions where I moved. Basically it's way different from what we were promised but we're not being compensated for the extra stuff we have to do. [/QUOTE]
