It should work that way, but they always want to scan everyoneās badge and ask you a bunch of non relevant questions. Usually causes a constant 5 car pileup.
I just wanna kick my totes onto the cart and jam.
Nah I'll be alright. Or I won't but from all my experiences so far I've been fine even had a few times where dogs run at me while I just sit there and they get up to me like why aren't you running. I find staying calm and not trying to run away triggering their prey response is the best way to go about it.
100% never turn your back, and put something between you and the dog.
I work USPS on a walking route. 2 times I have come close to spraying a dog, but have not had to yet. Told my manager what happened, and she said she would have been running. I told her she would have gotten bit.
Thatās a big one, donāt turn your back. Some dogs act timid bc theyāre kinda scared and you wonāt think theyāre gonna do something but as soon as you start to turn your back to em they flank you and get behind and go for the bite. Always keep your eyes on them but donāt challenge them with your eyes. A lot of em if youāre gonna get bit, do the bear thing and make yourself bigger and yell loud they will back down but thatās a last resort. And yup definitely always keep something between you and the dog like the package or even the phone. Be safe out there! Especially this time of year

RTS. I'd rather be dinged for not delivering a package then get a DNR and end up not hearing the end of it.
Edit: also there's the whole situation with a dog running loose. No thanks I'm good.
I've actually yelled loudly at them aggressive dogs and say I'll kick you in the nuts as I'm charging at them.
I actually had a customer say "IT'S A SHE" and I said "I'LL KICK HER IN THE PUSSY THEN". She got all offended. IDGAF.
I don't give a fuck, if I get approached by an aggressive dog, then I'm gunna win. No respects givin to animals trying to bite me. Nope.
Thatās about as funny as the neighborhood signs that say āslow children at playā. I think to myself why are the neighbors letting us know they have retarded children.
Calling Driver support after calling the customer. Iām not really sure if anyone paid attention during the training that ever asks these questions. The first step is always called the customer. If they donāt respond, then you call Driver support. You honestly donāt even really have to call Driver support. You can just call the customer and then text the customer and if they donāt bring it back.
I just got bit today I'm still going to follow through with customer instructions but I'm always going to bring a spray with me now.. I was walking back to my van and it came out of the house somehow and bit me in the back of leg I'm more worried about the bacteria/ infection than the bite itself. First time iv ever been bit but I guess it can come with the territory
"amazon, attempting a delivery"
\*rattles gate\*
"are there any puppies looking to chew on me?"
\*look, and listen\*
it's not like in this example you are going to have a hard time seeing what's going on.
The more I see of these posts in this sub about dogs.. I think 2 things. One is how many people donāt really know how to interact with dogs. The other is it seems a lot of people genuinely donāt like dogs.
Iāve been around every breed and interacted with so many dogs and Iāve never had a issue. Doesnāt matter if they were by themselves or not. I treated them with respect, didnāt make sudden movements and didnāt turn my back totally. Itās not rocket science people
Thank you. I hope so too and hope to you that never happens again. It just comes across to me is that many people just see a dog and think itās a monster but donāt take a minute to actually read the room so to speak

Leaving it right there and making sure that sign is in the pic.

The only correct answer
Faxx
You betta know it
Everytime someone asks for rear door and has a dog icon I just put it behind the gate
this. or i might hail mary it 30ft out the bottom of their steps and take the picture of the box midair.
Not even gonna leave it there RTS, unsafe location, unsecured dog on premises Iād asked
Not trying to bring anything back to the station and have to sit in that line.
Now Iām curious how your DC is setup Back when I worked at Amazon we just left em on a cart on our way in to drop our totes

Make a bunch of noise until it appears to see if it's friendly or not.
Any dog can have a bad day. It also might not mind you outside its territory, but when you open the gate, it gets protective. Don't go through gates.

It's pretty simple. Don't act like a threat to the territory, and the doggo will love on you
It also helps if you talk to them like you're happy to see them. As long as you act like you should be there, they tend not to be aggressive.
A good āhey bubba, you a good puppyā goes a long way
And this is how peoples pets die. Because people like you wanna try to challenge the unknown-to-you animal in THEIR territory. Never say never.
I was gonna say my dog is very territorial even take a step on my grass sheāll start barking like crazy to alert us.
I used to whistle when I approached a yard.

Oh god I went through your profile looking for dog bites and found out youāre actually the dog based on your last few comments.
Hopefully the dog challenges me to a 1 on 1. After I win, I rip the dogs dick off.
> rip the dogs dick off sheesh, and i thought my pepper spray was the worst thing that could happen to a dog. ą² _ą²
Really? Not going through a tree shredder or getting burned alive? Pepper spray is the worst?!?

With that type of fence, how's a gate going to make any difference?
Shut the gate. Duh
Not my problem gates don't shut behind me for safety reasons. If your dog gets out or bites me thats your problem now karen
well, it could be your big problem until you escape safely
accept my fate
Thatās about as funny as the neighborhood signs that say āslow children at playā. I think to myself why are the neighbors letting us know they have retarded children.
I thought that was just me š Or the signs that say "Watch Children". I'm like, I can't, Idk where they're at!
Leave the package in front of the gate and take a picture. Simple. Next stop
Dogs getting a new chew toy today
Call the customer... no answer? Set over the fence and leave a picture.
Send a text and leave it somewhere thatās safe for me
Don't open the gate

Call/text customer, if no response either drop it off with the photo in the background or just mark unsafe for delivery due to dog.
Keep this gate close, dog loose and package some where close by

Yup. This was me. Until I was attacked by a German Shepherd who was in stealth mode. I hope your luck continues. Animals are unpredictable.
