re: Amazon worker issues PSA to customers who order ‘every day’

My wife has been doing this for a few years. Sets up a small table with snacks and Gatorades every holiday season.

I would be shocked if they did anything

There are lots of things to shite on Amazon about, but they generally are very customer focused and won’t put up with shite like this. Also very tight on public relations. This will not go over well.

How much do they pay you? How many times have you been paid?

$245 without video evidence.

Since putting up a camera, I contact my dirt guy, I give hime a few pics. He writes an estimate to fill in ruts and reseed, usually 3-400 bucks as they only do this when it rains. I had one claim for over 1500. And the current one is likely more.

I submit. They pay.

At this point, it's probably 10x since January

We've expanded the driveway from 14 to 16ft wide. I've added enough limestone that UPS can turn around without touching the brakes. And AMAZON continues to drive in the yard.

Two weekends ago they saw the freshly repaired dirt and drove into it again, seemingly on purpose. Buried the van to the frame because they had messed up the one section so much I had the guy dig it out, refill, repack, and reseed. Even though I specifically told the guy, put it in reverse, but DO NOT touch the gas while I pulled the van out, he decided to floor it the entire time. Including when he was back onto the limestone.

Filed another claim...

I wouldn't be so petty, but with the new construction, I put over 30k into dirtwork last year. Brought in almost 2800 yards of dirt. Changed the entire yard's drainage to direct water toward the natural drainage.

...and they keep doing it.

My Wife did this the last couple weeks of December. I was against it, but it was fun to see some of the driver’s reactions on camera. Almost all said thank you and Merry Xmas etc

This. We’ve lost a little humanity.
Maybe the chicks message wasn’t proper, but she’s not wrong.

I remember when I drove Amazon, there would occasionally be some houses who were nice enough to leave snacks outside. This was typically during the Christmas season. Of course gestures like this are appreciated, but this individual is obviously highly entitled.

You want to know the perk of doing something like Amazon. You can stop at the gas station and buy all the snacks you want. Not many jobs are you allowed to snack all day. Just because you have a job doesn't mean you're entitled to free stuff.

We'll see.

I think they will be afraid of the backlash if they take any action, beyond a warning.

If you want snacks go to day care

young people are so weak I need a snack for doing my job hahahaha

I told my Amazon driver thank you through my Alexa. That should suffice.

I'm going to get Alexa to order me some snacks for the drivers and set off a continuous loop that may or not blow the universe up.
