yesterday I got 52 apartment stops, and almost all of them were group stops - meaning that I had 3-4 apartments per stop. They were 3 stories and had no elevator, and for some reason only like 3 mother fuckers ordered anything on the bottom floor. The complex was massive and I was stuck between the 58 apartment blocks from 9 to 4:00 climbing stairs.
On top of that, the routing system for each stop was completely fucked up and tried sending me from one corner of the two blocks to the other corner constantly. There was also no parking spaces as my van's clearance wouldn't physically fit anywhere so for those near 7 hours I was just stuck behind people trying to leave the apartments with my hazards on. After all of that it was very smooth, I even got sent to Grove street.
Midway through my apartment struggle dispatch sent someone to come help me out, but instead of actually helping me this person just took two of my residential bags of packages then went to deliver those. Towards the end I decided to trust the GPS routing over actually reading the address on one of the buildings, climbed up to the third floor and then across the street spotted the address I was meant to be at. It took every part of me to not launch the package across like a frisbee to their door.
One major issue at amazon, like my last post about it is the people that sprint to every one of their stops. When they do that and rush, it makes it so the system that sets up our routes filled with a greater number of stops. It sees these idiots running and doing a 10 hour shift by 5 or 6 and then expects everyone to speed up, thus giving us 300-400 packages. These apartments were only meant to be the first quarter of my day, since I had 5 more bags of regular residential and business stops to make afterwards.
