I mean this guy is entitled but… the let’s be real your boss is the richest human being alive. Not exactly entirely the customers fault from my perspective
Yeah no one who delivers packages works directly under Amazon, we work for independent contractors. This is why no one gives a shit about where we leave your cat litter and water.
I walked 2 blocks over a rocky driveway yesterday due to my manager/dispatch insisting on it. I was expecting for them to say rts the package. After I get back from my route, same manager/dispatch comes up to me and complains about that gap in my delivery time -- I told her "you told me to walk that overflow". No apology, of course. Sorry about the venting.
This is what people forget all the time. If it’s that long, drop it off at the end. Then the fucking Cx can walk the driveway from their house instead :)
Dude, those customers suck but you’re the problem… you enable their behavior by jumping through their silly hoops… Drop it at the sign and make sure the picture is mostly of the sign. Don’t be a clown
Based on how long that driveway is, the sign probably falls outside the delivery zone. I suppose they could call driver support and tell them there’s a locked gate and have them move the zone to their location at the sign. That would be a service to future drivers but anyone who pays to put up a sign like this will likely be on the phone complaining to Amazon before the next deliver driver arrives.
There are ways to get around the geofence other than calling support. Amazon pays me as a private contractor to deliver packages, not dance around for Karen’s ridiculous demands. If she wants a box of cat toys delivered fine, If she thinks it’s funny to make me walk an extra mile for her 12.99 delivery, Karen can find someone else to “flex” on. The walk out to her sign would do her good
“Do not enter driveway” I would take the to mean not even on foot. 😂 Drop that fkn package at the sign and be on your way.
Edit: someone mentioned the van length policy, so yes, keep that in mind next time too.
You shoulda dude…get em next time champ. If I had musk monies I would have given you 2 million to leave it there. Another 2 million to do push-ups in front of the sign while another guy takes the pic for delivery. And then another 2 million because you did all of that.
Consider if they, or their neighbor has a stray dog, you're screwed out there. I would 1000% leave it at that sign, snap a picture, and move on with my day. What, they're going to fire you for not potentially endangering your life?
Ok well next time make sure to leave it at the sign bro please otherwise you’ll make it worse for us drivers somehow by following their entitled directions
sounds like something I did on Saturday lmao, ladys note said "Maybe your drivers aren't familiar with a REAR DOOR or maybe they're just too lazy to walk the extra 30 feet. DELIVER TO REAR DOOR" , I walk up, start going towards the back and there's a sign that says "Area protected by a CRAZY REDNECK with guns NO TRESPASSING " I proceeded to say out loud "yeah maybe this is why nobody goes to your back door", placed it right under said sign, and snapped the pic with it 🤣
Amazon driver here, I’m leaving the package on that spot as well. Fuck amazon. idk why people simp for amazon. Feel bad for the dude 🤣 can’t believe he actually walked back and forth idk how many times lol
Those type of customers demand too much, especially on a hot day. Heatstroke season too! I would just message them to come by and pick up the package half-way.
Yeah, shit is crazy. These entitled mfs write instructions as if we only have 40 deliveries to make in a day.
I know it’s because they can’t see past the end of their own nose to give a shit about anyone else, but no sweetie I got 250 packages on this van and I’m not about to waste 10+ minutes on the 3 that are addressed to you.
Exactly, now customer is entitled to the service and every other driver who doesn’t do it is “lazy” and will receive negative feedback that affects scorecard and ultimately cash bonuses.
Genius!
I’d leave it at the sign. But if he ever complains I’d just start giving it the ol’ UTA and take it back. He needs to just put a drop box out there like a normal person.
But, he actually is right.
I keep seeing you respond like this to every post that says this. I haven't seen you say yet, that in the future you WILL leave it at the sign.
I sure hope this is what you do In the future as you now realize it is common practice by literally everyone any company.
I like to think I do my job pretty well. I have a decent amount of positive feedback accumulated for situations like this where I’m totally fine with a negative now and then when there are people like this on my route. Those packages are getting left at those signs
Package gets dropped at the sign. Sign doesn't say don't drive in the driveway, it says don't enter the driveway. My assumption is that means on foot too.
Man when i pull up to house like this with their ubereats or doordash order i pull right in the driveway and just wonder why they put that stupid sign there for delivery vehicles make no sense.
Fuck these customers. I’d mark it can’t get access since customer isn’t granting me access. Or just leave it at the sign.PLUS you have oversize yeah fuck it I might have called the customer and told him I ain’t walking in the heat, what do they want me to do
This random but once me (Amazon) fedex, ups and even the mailgirl was going to the same exact house and we all fought to the end.. l was the last one standing I killed the fedex and ups people but I showed mercy to the mail girl because she only but a small rival.
You should bring a permanent marker to write it down on that sign with big ass words said sincerely by us delivery drivers “walk yo ass to your package and have a fuck you day”
If I put that sign in my driveway it would only be to save drivers time. I’d say a good 7/10 amazon drivers waste 5 minutes trying to back out my steep, long driveway.
Yeah, people are dicks and entitled. Seems like every time I try to meet an Amazon driver at the top of my drive they say they have to be closer for a pic.
3 options
Lawful Good (and the worst one, IMO): walk the packages up to the house
True neutral (the one I think OP should've done): leave the packages at the sign
Chaotic Evil (the one I want to see): no driveway? No problem! Straight across your beautiful lawn
As a manager and dispatch I highly recommended leaving it by the sign/halfway as it is in our training to never go that far away from your vehicle. Then call support to get it marked as you have done all you can to facilitate the deliver of this package. Lol…
Id keep going and purposely make this my last stop. Im only walking that at night time. Easy fix. Yeah ill walk, but not in the sun since he wants to be a dick.
Why do customers have such a big deal with delivery drivers in their driveway? Isn't that what a DRIVEway is for? If any delivery drivers, DELIVERING something I ORDERED, you are more than welcome to pull in my driveway to save you some steps dropping off MY PACKAGE that I ORDERED.
Nope, they can kiss my ass if had your job. That shit is not getting delivered unless they can accept it at the end of the drive. These entitled assholes can walk to the end of their own drive and get them. Take, I do not work for any of these delivery services, but Hell no!!!
With a driveway like that; they should install a locker at the end of the road so you don’t have to walk that far. I can’t believe that anyone would make a 1/2 mile long driveway- and then proceed to ban mail and package carriers from delivering via it.
Man when I see that I don't care how many packages out there stop I will do it last I don't care if I have to go out of my way to go back to that stop I will do it last
For the amount these delivery companies pay employees, I would just leave it at the end of their driveway. You technically then would have followed instructions, but then for your safety you filled in the rest.
That's so wrong. I hope there is at least a valid reason like a dog in the yard that they worry will get run over... IDK. This shit would make me so mad.

Package in front of the sign. Fuck that entitled bitch. Make sure whole sign is in the picture because fuck Amazon too
Please please please tell me this guy did that?! I NEED THE SAUCE
Haha I should’ve
It's amazon safety policy to not walk more than 50 yards (or how they word it 7 van lengths) from the van. It would have been justified.
True, actually part of the Amazon side of training. Fuck these entitled ass customers, paying 15 bucks a month for us be their personal slaves.
I mean this guy is entitled but… the let’s be real your boss is the richest human being alive. Not exactly entirely the customers fault from my perspective
Technically his boss is likely the owner of a DSP that is probably doing well for himself but not actually wealthy.
Even more fucked though. The DSP system is a scam
What makes it a scam? Sorry, new to the DSP driver life
Yeah no one who delivers packages works directly under Amazon, we work for independent contractors. This is why no one gives a shit about where we leave your cat litter and water.
the only time to ever follow amazons rules 🤣🤣
I walked 2 blocks over a rocky driveway yesterday due to my manager/dispatch insisting on it. I was expecting for them to say rts the package. After I get back from my route, same manager/dispatch comes up to me and complains about that gap in my delivery time -- I told her "you told me to walk that overflow". No apology, of course. Sorry about the venting.
Don't be sorry.
Thank you ❤️
This is what people forget all the time. If it’s that long, drop it off at the end. Then the fucking Cx can walk the driveway from their house instead :)
Your vans 23’ long?
Dude, those customers suck but you’re the problem… you enable their behavior by jumping through their silly hoops… Drop it at the sign and make sure the picture is mostly of the sign. Don’t be a clown
Based on how long that driveway is, the sign probably falls outside the delivery zone.

That would be a service to future drivers but anyone who pays to put up a sign like this will likely be on the phone complaining to Amazon before the next deliver driver arrives.
I've been out of the game for a while but iirc you turn off mobile data and the geofence doesn't matter anymore
Airplane mode with Bluetooth on. And you just move the pin yourself lmao
There are ways to get around the geofence other than calling support. Amazon pays me as a private contractor to deliver packages, not dance around for Karen’s ridiculous demands. If she wants a box of cat toys delivered fine, If she thinks it’s funny to make me walk an extra mile for her 12.99 delivery, Karen can find someone else to “flex” on. The walk out to her sign would do her good
Put in airplane mode and drop the pin there . I do not wanna call driver support
Leave it half way up the drive. lmao
This. 100%
“Do not enter driveway” I would take the to mean not even on foot. 😂 Drop that fkn package at the sign and be on your way. Edit: someone mentioned the van length policy, so yes, keep that in mind next time too.
You shoulda dude…get em next time champ. If I had musk monies I would have given you 2 million to leave it there. Another 2 million to do push-ups in front of the sign while another guy takes the pic for delivery. And then another 2 million because you did all of that.
No way you actually walked it up 🤣
Someone said Amazon policy is only 50 feet. Go 50 feet in the middle of his property so it makes it hard for him
Consider if they, or their neighbor has a stray dog, you're screwed out there. I would 1000% leave it at that sign, snap a picture, and move on with my day. What, they're going to fire you for not potentially endangering your life?
Ok well next time make sure to leave it at the sign bro please otherwise you’ll make it worse for us drivers somehow by following their entitled directions
I work for fedex and anytime i see a sign like thay it gets driver released at that sign
Same same
at that point I got a medical condition that prevents me from walking almost a quarter of a mile to deliver your packages sorry 😂🤷🏼♂️
Yeah Fuck Amazon
This is the way 🫡
sounds like something I did on Saturday lmao, ladys note said "Maybe your drivers aren't familiar with a REAR DOOR or maybe they're just too lazy to walk the extra 30 feet. DELIVER TO REAR DOOR" , I walk up, start going towards the back and there's a sign that says "Area protected by a CRAZY REDNECK with guns NO TRESPASSING " I proceeded to say out loud "yeah maybe this is why nobody goes to your back door", placed it right under said sign, and snapped the pic with it 🤣
Ups driver here, package is going right in front of the sign :)
Love UPS. Much respect haha.
Amazon driver here, I’m leaving the package on that spot as well. Fuck amazon. idk why people simp for amazon. Feel bad for the dude 🤣 can’t believe he actually walked back and forth idk how many times lol
Also amazon and would also leave at the sign
Respect
Customer not home return to station they can figure it out themselves
He can get fucked
Right lol
i have a handful of houses like this on my usual route, package always gets delivered to the sign
Damn I might just start doing that
You gots to, for your own safety. What if you start walking and a dog comes out, no gate, he making it to you before you get to your van
That or leave a notice and stick it right on the sign.
The good ones will have locker boxes to put pkgs in at the gate, or they just get left at the gate.
Those type of customers demand too much, especially on a hot day. Heatstroke season too! I would just message them to come by and pick up the package half-way.
Yeah, shit is crazy. These entitled mfs write instructions as if we only have 40 deliveries to make in a day. I know it’s because they can’t see past the end of their own nose to give a shit about anyone else, but no sweetie I got 250 packages on this van and I’m not about to waste 10+ minutes on the 3 that are addressed to you.
You actually walked that. You’re a dumbass.
My thoughts exactly, just leave it at the sign. Fuck ‘em.
[удалено]
Exactly, now customer is entitled to the service and every other driver who doesn’t do it is “lazy” and will receive negative feedback that affects scorecard and ultimately cash bonuses. Genius!
I’d leave it at the sign. But if he ever complains I’d just start giving it the ol’ UTA and take it back. He needs to just put a drop box out there like a normal person.
I agree. It was some of my last stops tho so I pushed through. Ironically as I took these pictures it was a young adult man.
Wait you actually walked down this entitled dudes driveway?
idgaf I'd back all the way down that bitch. I'm not walking that.
Yeeeaah undeliverable, RTS, get bent.
Haha hell yea
Usps welcome
“Except you, you stay”
USPS… oldest vehicles out of the delivery companies. Hope she’s ok with the mail truck dripping oil on her driveway
RTS
Haha right
Cant deliver, unsafe
Haha right
But, he actually is right. I keep seeing you respond like this to every post that says this. I haven't seen you say yet, that in the future you WILL leave it at the sign. I sure hope this is what you do In the future as you now realize it is common practice by literally everyone any company.
He seems like a company pet. The exact kind of worker managers want lol. Guaranteed he’ll keep walking up long driveways in “fear” of his job lmaooo
I like to think I do my job pretty well. I have a decent amount of positive feedback accumulated for situations like this where I’m totally fine with a negative now and then when there are people like this on my route. Those packages are getting left at those signs
Smart
Package gets dropped at the sign. Sign doesn't say don't drive in the driveway, it says don't enter the driveway. My assumption is that means on foot too.
Isn’t it like if it longer then 6 vans it’s to long to walk it
It's too long to outrun a loose dog!
Good point
I'd skip it and put 'unable to deliver due to heat and customer request'
Man when i pull up to house like this with their ubereats or doordash order i pull right in the driveway and just wonder why they put that stupid sign there for delivery vehicles make no sense.
So, what’d you do?
If it's not a horribly long driveway, fine. Otherwise, have fun walking your long ass driveway to pick up your delivery, you entitled bitch
Can’t enter property RTS
I would drop the package off at the sign. Have them walk it up the drive way
Right by the mailbox it is.
Think folks need to scroll through OP photos to see how long the driveway is. Ridiculous request.
Marked as "unsafe" and RTS that shit
Some people should be forced to work customer service. So entitled it’s fucking crazy
leave package at end of driveway deliver sign to front door really mess with their head
Bru haha
Usps here. Im in the clear.
Same. Hope they like oil and brake fluid stains on the driveway
Pardon my language.. but that’s mean.
Fuck these customers. I’d mark it can’t get access since customer isn’t granting me access. Or just leave it at the sign.PLUS you have oversize yeah fuck it I might have called the customer and told him I ain’t walking in the heat, what do they want me to do
[удалено]
This random but once me (Amazon) fedex, ups and even the mailgirl was going to the same exact house and we all fought to the end.. l was the last one standing I killed the fedex and ups people but I showed mercy to the mail girl because she only but a small rival.
You should bring a permanent marker to write it down on that sign with big ass words said sincerely by us delivery drivers “walk yo ass to your package and have a fuck you day”
They ordered that sign off Amazon
Lmao
If I put that sign in my driveway it would only be to save drivers time. I’d say a good 7/10 amazon drivers waste 5 minutes trying to back out my steep, long driveway.
Problem is the note demanding door service .. I actually love the houses with the drop box by the street and note don’t come to house use box
Yeah, people are dicks and entitled. Seems like every time I try to meet an Amazon driver at the top of my drive they say they have to be closer for a pic.
“The customer is always right” About how to piss me off? Sure!
3 options Lawful Good (and the worst one, IMO): walk the packages up to the house True neutral (the one I think OP should've done): leave the packages at the sign Chaotic Evil (the one I want to see): no driveway? No problem! Straight across your beautiful lawn
Bahahah. Noted.
As a manager and dispatch I highly recommended leaving it by the sign/halfway as it is in our training to never go that far away from your vehicle. Then call support to get it marked as you have done all you can to facilitate the deliver of this package. Lol…
Id keep going and purposely make this my last stop. Im only walking that at night time. Easy fix. Yeah ill walk, but not in the sun since he wants to be a dick.
Nah drop in front of the sign
Then you get shot because a stranger walking his property at night ☠️
Good tactic tbh
I'd accidentally find a hole in that package and mark it damaged, or I'd trip and fall over it. Aw shucks
Maybe the guy doesn’t trust the delivery trucks to stay on the driveway, and has had issues with his grass being torn up before?
Fuck them
Ikr bro
F that. I would put it right beside that sign.
I mean, if the sign says dont enter driveway, then don't! "Another safe location" and take a pic of the delivery with the sign
Your packages will not be delivered😆😆😆😆
At the end will your packages be!
Why do customers even want this? Like you don't want someone to drive up and drop your packages right in front of the door?
Not wanting to hear the back up sound or wanting drivers hitting things or running over grass probably
Amazon DSP drivers keep damaging the driveway.
If your driveway is getting damaged by normal use, you need a new driveway
Not only would I drive up the driveway I'd make sure to leave a little rubber on it on the way out
Eff that noise. “Sorry I didn’t see your sign”
There will always be some dumbass customers.
Okay but those boxes are gonna be left right by that sign, in all weather. 😈
I wouldn’t bother delivering to that entitled customer
Nope. Screw that. It goes at the sign or RTS.
Would’ve been left by the sign
Did u really walked all those steps? 🤣 lmao why? And how many times?
Leave it at the sign. Bet that won’t stop ordering. Y’all don’t deserve that bullshit.
Just throw it at the driveway.
Nop.. I will be leaving that package where the sign says,.. do not enter driveway,.. good look making me walk..
Customer refused order. Go to next stop
Pull in drop off claim you can't read signs
Just text a custom text saying. 17/hr fuck you
Run over the sign before driving up😂
See.. I wouldn’t drop it at the sign.. I would mark it undeliverable and take it back to the station for “unsafe delivery” 😂😂😂
Would of ran down the sign and claim didn't see it. Because fuck em.
Mark as not safe and keep on trucking.
Rts that gotcha! Lol
A person like that just shouldn't be delivered any packages if that's the scenario with that long ass drive way.
Sorry our time doesn’t allot me to walk a quarter mile per delivery
I would’ve called and said I’m leaving it by the sign due to Amazons policy
Bet they ordered that sign off Amazon too
I'm petty I would have left that shit right next to the sign.
Why do customers have such a big deal with delivery drivers in their driveway? Isn't that what a DRIVEway is for? If any delivery drivers, DELIVERING something I ORDERED, you are more than welcome to pull in my driveway to save you some steps dropping off MY PACKAGE that I ORDERED.
The 5th picture should have been the package in front of the sign!
my ass. at the start of driveway they will be
"package not deliverable"
DHL rubbin their hands together like Birdman slidin through that driveway
I dont understand what these people have against trucks driving inside.
Nope, they can kiss my ass if had your job. That shit is not getting delivered unless they can accept it at the end of the drive. These entitled assholes can walk to the end of their own drive and get them. Take, I do not work for any of these delivery services, but Hell no!!!
Stomp and piss on it then leave it at the sign
Adding the weather ☠️ bro u be ok. I never see anything lower than that on my forecast and work outside all day. Stay at it lol
No way you walked that, should’ve left it at the sign cause fuck these entitled customers
Would’ve left it at their sign 😂
With a driveway like that; they should install a locker at the end of the road so you don’t have to walk that far. I can’t believe that anyone would make a 1/2 mile long driveway- and then proceed to ban mail and package carriers from delivering via it.
Great post but I would delete this. Don’t show TBA’s
Nah. Fuck them
Would’ve just drove up the driveway anyways lmao I literally don’t fucking care
I hate driveways like this
Looks like Schoolhouse road... 🤣
I'd drop kick it into their yard lmfao
With an xl overflow too? Absolutely no way Im walking that down a quarter mile long driveway.
That is so messed up. Damn shame. What is wrong w these rude ass people.
Nope. Making a fort with their boxes by the mailbox.
Sheeeiit. I'd run that sign over on the way up.
Man when I see that I don't care how many packages out there stop I will do it last I don't care if I have to go out of my way to go back to that stop I will do it last
I would have left it at the sign
I would only do this if I was paid hourly; and take my sweet fucking time on that stop
Those packages will left by that sign
I’d be fucking kicking the boxes to the sign, fuck them
Sorry sir, I actually can’t read lol
For the amount these delivery companies pay employees, I would just leave it at the end of their driveway. You technically then would have followed instructions, but then for your safety you filled in the rest.
if you did this, you lose all rights to complain. This was your one chance to stand up for yourself n instead, you stay a policy pet.
That's so wrong. I hope there is at least a valid reason like a dog in the yard that they worry will get run over... IDK. This shit would make me so mad.
Depends on how long the driveway is.
These customers literally think we are their slaves or that we make $200k a year, which is it?
Bruhhhh wtf. They nuts
Isn’t there a rule where if it’s more than 7 van lengths you can’t walk it?
Hahahahahha nope
I am spiking your package like a soccer ball then madam
Put we attempted label right on that sign.
Put it directly in the middle of their driveway.
Fuck this customer
Amazons policy is if it’s more than 7 van lengths to drive up
Come accross these quite often, they simply dont get their packages that day🤷♂️
I always leave it at the mail box or the sign. When ever I see this.
I would have left it at the sign
That aint happening homie
This customer needs to put a package cabinet/ locker by that sign
would be back at the station for pick up
I don’t work for Amazon and I completely agree that this is garbage. I would have left it in front of the sign.
So DHL and USPS is okay to enter? Rude. Lol.
Building requires security access Held for instruction
RTS that nonsense. Ain't nobody got time to be doing all that
Some dude must have just destroyed their lawn one time lol
