Taeshaun Brewer thank I really appreciate that glad you like the videos. They are only going to get better and better trust

Thanks man appreciate it stay safe as well! 🤙🏽

No worries glad my videos helped in anyway. It does get overwhelming at first but once you get the hang of it. It will come to you easier trust me

@@Victor_Fuentes24 - do you get the same route often or all over the place? I am hoping to get same route to get efficent, but last 3 days...different routes. All the best to you Motivating Kiki....you've got this!

I am glad to hear that because that’s the whole reason I do this to help other people

albert p thank you I appreciate the comment. I will keep that in mind and add alittle section on how to use the rabbit and little tips and tricks

Damn I hate when I have those big house with long driveways those do take longer it’s so annoying

Had a rual route today I’m the Midwest it’s harvest season Amazon don’t factor that it big tractors that take up both lane of the highways. Also tons of semis clogging roses. All farm driveway long as hell. 15 to 20 mins if not longer to nearest gas station just to take a piss. Brought back 20 some packs because of all the delays hope I still have a job 😂

Some routes are just easier than others. And if you're familiar with the environment like apartments you wont spend as much time in them as you would if you're brand new. I've had routes that are 130 stops took me all day and I've had routes 140 stops that I finish early

Thank you so much I am glad you like the videos. That’s going to happen but your body will get used to it and you won’t be as sore as you were. So when that happens they want you to deliver to there front door. Now when you deliver to there front door your going to have to call support so they can fix the ones you delivered to the door so it doesn’t show on your route

@@Victor_Fuentes24 thanks for the detail explanation 👍

Awww man that sucks but atleast you can listen to it in the van while you drive

Ricardo Hernandez You can do that to make it easier for you but I feel like that’s going to take a lot of your time that you can be delivering. I just grab all the envelopes and move them to the front. Organize them by the street name of the packages

@@Victor_Fuentes24 yeah I've been doing that. Putting envelopes and poly bags on the front and the boxes out from the bag and I write their number address big so I can just see and grab with out taking time looking for them small number. So far I've worked 3 days and I've gotten 850 fico scores :) easy

@@Victor_Fuentes24 Sort your bags In order and try to keep over flow stacked up side by side. Also, look at the addresses n bundle then together.

I am surprised they usually give you atleast two sets when you get hired. I would ask them if you can have another pair of uniform. You can also wear black shirt and wear your blue Amazon vest. I totally understand your struggle to I have children’s of my own too

@@Victor_Fuentes24 can you believe that I don’t have a blue vest from amazon? I only got 1 shirt and 1 pants, that’s it! It’s sucks! I ask them for a hat and they said I can use a black one out of the ware house...I think they’re just cheap in my area

Martin Clarke It all depends if they see that you are behind they might send someone to take some packages from you so they can get delivered. If for what ever reason you can’t finish they will have you bring them back. But that is rare doesn’t really happen. They usually will send you some help

@@Victor_Fuentes24 do they ever make u work overtime if u dont finish all the packages? Or do u always leave when u supposed to leave

David Palmisano The way I have been doing it is on the road but if I don’t have that much overflow I will organize it at the station

Victor Fuentes do you go through each tote when you organize or do you do one tote and when you finish then go to the next tote?

Yes so the way I do it I put the tote I am working on in the front when I am done I go and get the other tote and move it to the front

jav I usually turn it off because we have had other drivers get there van stolen. I am not sure they said it does track it but I don’t believe them. They just say that so you don’t leave the van running

Victor Fuentes gotcha!👍

@@jav6940 Turn Ementor off after an hour.

It does help out but you just have to be careful because if you get caught you will get in trouble. So I wouldn’t recommend it

@@Victor_Fuentes24 thanks

I make it in the morning and when I am ahead while delivering. pretty much when ever I have some extra time

I go by the list I rarely check the map but sometimes I will peak in the map

@@Victor_Fuentes24 thanks pri

Gas stations and some fast food places that you can go inside and order will let you use the restroom. Awesome well hope your first day goes well. Also check out my last video there I go over on the app places that are open too.

Most of the guys use a empty water bottle...😒

Ladies have it tougher..☺

Go to a grocery store most fast . Most fast food places don’t have bathrooms open for the public

Look for construction in suburban areas... most of them have porta potties on site. Those are useful in my route! OR big box stores like Kohl’s, Home Depot, Walmart, Target all still have their public restrooms open.

Chris Carrera man I am sorry to hear that I know Amazon is cracking on company’s that don’t have good performance. Hope everything turns out for the best for you Chris stay up 🤙🏽

@@Victor_Fuentes24 thanks brother likewise!

Daniel No they are not doing ride alongs they just have them do a small route by themselves

@@Victor_Fuentes24 I started last week, Was supposed to have 60% routes, then 80% routes starting from yesterday. So i.e. on my 60% route I had anywhere from 120 to 300 parcels and 70-98 stops. Yesterday (Left depo with parcels at 12:00), I had 240 parcels and 153 stops - ALL OF THAT in Rural UK with farmlands and cottages, literally spent like 30% of my gas tank and ended up getting rescued by 2 drivers and still finished at 22 in the middle of nowhere and ended up getting home at midnight. I'm quite sure that wasn't normal 80% route? How the heck do I get more efficient i feel like I waste a lot of time on something but I am moving fast I think... I hate gettin rescued

Like I work for coke and in our union contract we are guaranteed atleast 40 hours a week, only way they wouldn't have to give u it is if they lay you off for a full week which in the 4 years I've been with them it's only happened once for about 2 weeks but during when covid was at its worst in the start when no one barely knew anything about it

Then you would have to return all the packages back at the warehouse

You dont get in trouble

@@joshuasweeting7158 I did that last week... It was my 3rd day on the job and yeah... You do get in trouble

@@nathanielselvidge4157 a sweeper should be coming to help you.

L Rob I don’t have one for loading because it’s hard to record and load since we only have 30 mins. But I will see what I can do to show alittle bit and more details on the rabbit too

Thsnks man, dont worry I start tomorrow, I've been you tubing vids last two, days. I worked for dhl 15 years ago, this is way different, the only thing that sucks now. Is the no ride along....and dhl gave u same route everyday..delivery in am Pick ups in after 1, done by 5....but nowhere near as many stops, but it looks like stops r very close together in range here...I'm just dreading the rabbit...I guess..thanks fir reply

Amy Saya to be honest it’s just that I have been doing it for almost 2 years so you just get used to it. Also there is things I do so I can go faster that I have shared on other videos as well

187 stops are 95% houses.

No they don’t know when you are using your personal phone. They can only track what you use on the work phone

Ricky Rosa Yes it usually slows down after Christmas for at least couple months

Because trucks don’t show, sorters don’t show;

The Tilson's It tracks when you use your phone in general. So if you have it on your personal phone try not to use as much. If you do just make sure you are parked and not moving so it doesn’t count against you

No

Denise N Robinson Honestly running shoes are great for this job. You want to make sure you have enough padding. If not you can buy some shoe padding. Since you will be up and down ALOT!!

@@Victor_Fuentes24 thank you for responding! I will be starting soon and your videos have been so helpful! I'm worried about my feet being extremely sore or wet from the wrong type of shoes so I want to be really prepared! Thank yo again

Denise N Robinson Yes I would get some good running shoes and if it rains where you are at I would get some rain boots they will help. But if you do get running shoes make sure they don’t have any holes

Elexus T Yea usually I am done around that time. I could finish my route in 8 hours but I need to get my hours so I usually take my time when I see I am almost done. Try taking your time at the end so you get more hours you know what I am saying we need that money lol

@@Victor_Fuentes24 milk the cow

I have the seatbelt bucked but I just move the strap so it won’t be in the way. When I am making the video so if you do that then it won’t affect your mentor because you have your seatbelt on

Our mentor monitors every stop and seat belt click. So no just buckling it behind us lol

Yea it gets annoying putting your seatbelt on and off when you are like only one house away lol

Just posted a new video today go check it out thanks

Ok great thanks

FeastingOnEm With the Amazon once you have to scan the package and it opens up for you.

Victor Fuentes got ya, thinking about applying for the job. Only thing I fear is having to rush the whole time

FeastingOnEm You should apply and try it out and see if it’s something you like. At first they won’t rush you because you are going to be new but you will get the hang of it quick and it will come much easier for you trust me

Victor Fuentes thanks bro, appreciate the feedback. The video really helped understand what you do. Stay safe out there.

FeastingOnEm I am glad to hear that you have anymore questions just shoot them over here I would be more than happy to answer them 👍🏼

If they give you a rabbit. Don't mention it again. Ive got two. 🤣Much easier for scanning. But generally most drivers use their own device.

Melvin Cruz To be honest I am not sure because when I first started they didn’t have those classes. So I am not sure but I don’t think so I believe they just go over the do’s and dont’s of the job.

@@Victor_Fuentes24 ok thanks I was told today is a multiple question test

Yes you do get a test but it was easy.

Yes you get a lot of overtime with this job and it is time and a half as well

Gladis Gonzalez I start at 8 but I don’t load in until 8:30

@air-rick626 No I work at the one in Irvine

@@Victor_Fuentes24 Oh ok cool, I am pretty excited for this job and nervous as well

@air-rick626 don’t worry about it I am sure you will do fine. That’s the reason why I do these videos to help new drivers so they can better understand the job. Trust me it gets easier

@@Victor_Fuentes24 Thanks Victor I really apprieticate your videos they are very informative. Keep up the videos bro.

Simon Amaral I get paid per hour

Victor Fuentes do you mind saying what you start off making ?

Daily rate of £142 £122 for sweeping DRS Routes depend on distance.

Vivek M it all depends some company’s will have you head back to go home. Or some company’s will have you help other drivers that are behind and take some packages from them to deliver

Sweet thanks for the reply !

David Sekekama thanks man

True.

Stfu

No

😂😂😂😂😂 I know… it gets annoying

Angel Gutierrez Yea man that’s the only thing that sucks about it. Unless they have you help other drivers that’s the only way you can get your hours

I only had 50 my first day and barely finished within those 8 hrs..Idk how to make apt hunting quicker

@@Bongwaterx download beans app it helps you with apartment # findings

Keegan Hill Yes I am in Cali

Nella motivations to be honest mine was pretty quick it was before they had the classes and everything they have now. But now it takes about 2 days

Am waiting a week now, did my profile and still waiting, what u think is happening?

Nella motivations I believe it’s the background check that took the longest when I applied and I know that takes awhile.

@@Victor_Fuentes24 okay thank you, love ur channel keep up the good work👍🏼

Juz Chill I am at the moment it’s a pretty easy job and I like my schedule. I make 16 an hour

How often do they give raises ?

Angel Ellis hmmmmmmm is this Jeff bezos?

Angel Ellis I known someone that got a .25 raise after a year.

Eduardo Martinez Damn I wish I would start that early so I can leave earlier but I don’t start until 8

Victor Fuentes painful lol u guys probably at station when we leave we start at 645 but won’t start loading till 730 am but damn feel you on the time and with the heat bro god damn super hot I’m not even trying to go on the new step vans bro !

Damn, we start at 1:40, and end by pitch black outside. It’s tough to see those Driver labels in the dark!

Maybe if I would have 200 stops I would but I could finish my route without running. Usually I would finish early but I want to make sure I get my 10+ hours you know.

Victor Fuentes that’s right bro

I can finish my route without running lol 200 stops too. It just depends on how u do things.

@@Tru_Riot how fast u get 200 stops done? And what do u do to do it?

U have 200 when you in the inner city or suburbs and homes are close together, and not many apartments and have a less than 15 minute drive to first stop

Damn usually they would give you something more light around 80 stops. But maybe that was the smallest route they had. Or they want to see how you do with that many stops

Don’t worry the longer you do this you would do 150 stops so quick lol

No sometimes company’s have extra people so they will rescue you. But it just looks good on you if you finish your route without any help.
