Yeah they’re TOTALLY NOT doing it on purpose…and all of the carts were half empty or 1/4 full but mine was full and I laughed when I saw the route on top of it…

Was offered a 4.5..

And finished in 3! 🙌 Reminded me of the good old days 😂 What’s weird is that it was the same route and number of packages that I usually get when I do a 3.5, like any other day. I have another one scheduled for tomorrow and we’ll see if today was just a fluke.

EVERY DAY!

they put me on this route. Every. Single. Morning. It’s either this or Canby/Oregon City mix. nothing else. such bull.

Welp, VOR3 just did a major FU..🖕

Rates were previously $26/hr. Now they’re $21.50. They must have onboarded a bunch of newbies who don’t know any better. I was already cutting back on blocks because of the high gas prices, but this is insane.😤🤬

Heads up to DPD2 Flexers; the warehouse staff are aware of the last minute check-in scam to get overbooked lol

3.5 hr blocks from VOR3

Would you do a 3 1/2 hour block out of VOR3? I’m aware that the base rate of $26 is the norm now and I take those because they rarely surge, but I take 4 hour routes simply because it’s basically the same mileage. For those of you who do the 3.5 for $91, do you find them worth it? I have one scheduled for the morning, but am considering canceling it. The risk is that I won’t get a higher offer. Thoughts?

Yes! But...

$91 3 hr route and it was a split route to Salem 🫠 I knew it was too good to be true when I pulled up and saw 16 packages. Oh well, at least I can treat myself to some in n out 👍

bullshit 1.5 hr route

Go fuck yourself amazon

Only 2 packages on the route so dropped in returns and left. I'll happily take the dings rather than drive over 100 miles for 39 bucks.

I’ve angered the Amazon gods.

My morning route. Third trip to Salem since last Thursday.

Two of those trips I got extra pay….

Will I again? 🤔🤣

(And PSA….I don’t buy that “algorithm/locked in” theory. I’ve been in other places this week as well.)

I just thought this was funny…

VOR3

When was the last time you got a free money block here? I’m talking actually going to the station, scanning ID and waiting. Not an email of a block cancel. What was your block frame and $? I think they created the very very short blocks like 45 minutes up to 2 hours as a normal thing on purpose to keep people from getting free money blocks

They keep sending me over here and I’m over it lol

Is there anyone here who gets the Hillsboro/Cornelius/Forest Grove area often?

u/ValueLee — 8 days ago

1-5 North traffic

I have/had a block scheduled for today from 12:15-4:15 pm at VOR3. My gps went from telling me I’d be at the station at 11:53am but now it says arrival at 12:43pm and all the lanes aren’t moving. Does anybody know if there’s an accident?

VOR3 Thursday drop

I think this may have been the FASTEST i have seen folks take the initial drop rate ($21.50 /hr)…. I think i saw it go from 150 offers down to 120 or so within the first 5 minutes 😭 if they just WAITED it goes back up to $26/hr pleaseeee. Even if you can’t wait to take the surges and need to schedule out just wait the 5-10 minutes for it to come back up 🥲 we all deserve better than $21.50 come on 😭 must be newcomers…
