Today I had a 3 AM route and two of my packages were supposed to be delivered to the apartment leasing office. Obviously the office was closed at that hour, and I ended up marking them as missing packages and moved on.

It’s the first time this happens to me. Maybe some people will see it as dishonest, maybe not, but I’ve heard returning packages can become a bigger headache and create more issues than just finishing the route.

What would you guys do in this situation? Should I call support and explain it was a mistake? Return the packages later? Keep them? I honestly don’t want problems or app issues over two packages.

Hello everybody,

Just have a quick question regarding Region changing. So, I’m going out of town for the weekend and I was curious about changing my region just so I could keep delivering. I just wanted to know how long does it take for the region to be changed officially and when can I try and grab blocks… Also, how long does it take to change it back for when I get back home?

Don't let anyone shame you for doing what you need to do to take care of your family. If you need quick money to pay a bill or to buy groceries for the week or to buy diapers for your child, then don't feel bad for taking base pay. We all go through financial difficulties in life and if you have an opportunity to make money to handle your business, then take it.

Of course it would be nice to get paid more per route but if you have a bill coming up and you're short on cash, take base if you need to. Don't let others dictate what you should and shouldn't do.

Personally, I don't take base myself and I don't have a problem waiting for higher paying offers.. but i also don't make a big deal if people do take it. I empathize for those who need to do what they need to do to take care of their family. Go ahead a downvote me!

I'm doing Amazon Now deliveries in Tokyo, and we have to do a breathalyzer check each time we check in for a block. It's vaguely annoying because our blocks are only 45 minutes long and we have to do it each and every time, but whatever. I was just curious if the breathalyzer checks are a Japan-only thing, or if it's a worldwide Amazon policy. I'm always interested to see how international businesses get adapted to work in Japan.

I'm seeing other drivers get dismissed but this is now 7 times in a row in the past 2 weeks that I would be dismissed if only they didn't assign a route for 3 more minutes. I either get a route instantly when I scan my license or I get assigned a route 3 minutes before I'm scheduled to be dismissed.

Should I have reported the customer and called the cops. Was doing a delivery and saw the ittanary have a message from customer saying some suggestive stuff about tipping in oral and femboy stuff. At the time I did not see it since it was my 5th stop and I was carrying way too many stuff. So I get to the apartment and he opens the door. dude freaking comes out almost half naked. I don't even look at just try to get picture of the delivery done, but he had taken some of the stuff inside. He then asks if I want to come inside and making suggestive movements. I did not know what to do and just said no and left. And on top of that they have a ring camera.

If an employee takes a package off your route when you're picking up, what does their screen look like when they scan the package? I assume they have the option to select different reasons for removal, and some of those reasons count against the driver like if they mark it as a refusal instead of a damaged package. Can anyone actually confirm how this works on their end?

I'm so sick of scumbag employees marking every damaged package as a refusal instead of a damaged package. At least that's what I assume they're doing.
