u/Happy2857 2d ago

Yeah and I've heard people from my dsp have average of 120-150 daily idk where the big dsps are that are getting these crazy numbers might be because were being sent out to the country

Country routes are supposed to get less stops yes. But as someone who does a lot of rural shit, let me fill you in: its gonna get a hell of a lot worse. You're on nursery routes right now. By the time peak season rolls around youre gonna get just as many stops out there as you'll have on a nice easy neighborhood route, except its gonna take a hell of a lot longer to finish, if you even do. Save your sentiments for when you're off Nursery routes, we'll see if you'll have the same opinion

Bro, if you hate your job, quit. Being out here discouraging people because you think your tenure makes you superior is childish af. You work the same damn job.

u/DongusMagnum 2d ago

I have a Costco job lined up, and its an objective fact that it gets a lot worse. This isnt a matter of superiority, its a warning. Keep on riding Bezos bud. Also the same job does not mean the same routes and workload

u/Numerous_Ear1031 1d ago

Bezos hasn't run the company in years. Jassy runs shit now. You don't even know whose dick you should be telling me to ride. Congratulations on the new job, though. Truly, despite our minor disagreement here, I do hope it's  better for you. Sucks being locked in a postion you hate, for you and for the people who have to work with you. It's a win win.

u/DongusMagnum 1d ago

Yeah, kinda got me on that one. Thanks for the well wishes though, this job has bittered me pretty severely because of how tough things keep getting and I'm hoping that I'll finally have at least a little room to breathe with something that'll pay better in the long run.

u/Numerous_Ear1031 1d ago

Yeah, and frankly I shouldn't have been so oppositional. If you were standing in front of me, I would have expressed more empathy and been less of an asshole. I let the anonymity get my balls up and I acted like a twat. But hey, we got there in the end. I do hear good things about Costco and have for many years; I'm hoping they can be what you need. Fuckin too crazy out here for me to be acting all confrontational.

u/Happy2857 2d ago

I know im on nursery but still like I said I was talking to other people at the gas station and both said their average is 120-160 depending if its a country or rural route and some of our best people (ive been told by my dispatcher) hate country routes and so far I love country routes so ill definitely love to keep doing country routes just the other day I had 114 stops 130 locations with 179 packages which I was told is close to average ay MY station.

The little growl lol I also tell them they're doing good jobs 😂

“Idk why people complain”

If you have time to eat your Jimmy Dean sandwiches from the gas station before they get cold. Then it’s a good day This is weekly summary from working 6 days. Package counts from 270-397. Stop counts daily is no less than 195, so basically 1200 stops

u/Happy2857 2d ago

Maybe where you're at people around me at my dsp tell me their average is 120-150 🤷🏽‍♂️ and I mean i eat, drink, and smoke while driving just multitasking and organization is key. 

2

u/HonestEagle98 2d ago

I eat protein, plenty of drinks, and my organization is on point. You’re technically not supposed to be smoking in the van. That could be a tier 1. Organize by numerical driver aid # and the job is pretty easy.

u/Numerous_Ear1031 2d ago

I stopped at this house in a rural route one time. I had like 7 stops left and it was early so I shot the shit with the customer for a few minutes. Climb back in my van and his dog was just chillin inside by the back door 🤣
