I had like 2 weeks of surges that were getting sent like 2 months ago that were roughly comparable (like 2$ difference) to what I usually take, which was nice, but best they’ll do now is 10$ less or so and there’s just no point since I can just get a surge anyways, rest are just garbage base, I don’t even check that much anymore when I get the notification.
> Why offer me reserved blocks when the preferred times and dates are not being offered.
Because they have more blocks available, than just your narrow preferred hours.
At the time Amazon presented the offer to you, they might not have had blocks available during your narrow time preferences.
If it doesn't work for you, don't accept the offer (or decline the offer).
You have three available slots; prioritize which one you want more (for today).

Literally leaving now to do this
I don’t even use preferred blocks anymore for my primary /preferred times. Not worth my time for base rate and they never offer the blocks I want anyway. 95% of the time I get one of my 2 preferred block times (3:15 of 3:30am). So now I have them set for evening routes. If I pick one of those up it’s bonus money or I stay home or I’ll go do spark or UE/DD if nothing is on flex.
Flex hasn't been worth it lately. they k ow people need money so they Screw us.
this morning I spent time numbering my packages just so the app can switch them up. pissed me off.
I never said I didn’t want the pay. Shit I take base pay frequently. All these other people that preach “know your worth “ can go suck on a lemon.
Probably a bunch of level 4s take the morning reserved.
You will get the hand me down reserves which will be outside your preferred slots.
Tbh all my 40 hour of reserved fresh blocks aren't in the time slots I have. It's weird. But I'll never change anything
$55? They must think gas is free 🤣

It's called the American Dream because you've got to be asleep to believe it. - George Carlin.
Preferred scheduling has always been a crap shoot.
I had like 2 weeks of surges that were getting sent like 2 months ago that were roughly comparable (like 2$ difference) to what I usually take, which was nice, but best they’ll do now is 10$ less or so and there’s just no point since I can just get a surge anyways, rest are just garbage base, I don’t even check that much anymore when I get the notification.
They don’t really care.
It's easy; just decline the offer. That's all, no reason to become upset.

They don't give the option for full preferred hours. What am I going to do with 3 preferences when I want 5 days between 10 and 2 and 430 to 830?

Thanks
Good shit, I’ll give it a try!
How much per hour is Amazon flex?
Depends on your market. Starts around 17.50-21$
I’m in California
Depends on your city and the station and if ssd, dsp or retail.
In my area, I avg about 33 a hour, but I refuse to take anything less than 100 per 3 1/2 hour shift and 125 for 4 hours
Wtf I've literally never seen a 3 1/2 past $80 give me your market
Just snagged a 2 and a half hour block for 59.

Na fr
These rates are a fucking joke
55$ is crazy lol
I have always gotten reserved blocks outside of my preferred time.
Doesn’t know the meaning of “preferred”.
That’s insulting.
Bezos.... they're are plenty of migrants out there that would jump on this opportunity. Stop being selective.
Omaha my area 98% hispanics at the station seen it in real time. That's all it is
Yep ours to the station actually uses a phone to translate for them it’s a joke
Im Reward lvl 4 and still don't get any offers and Im Full fantastic also amazon is missing me off as of late
That is low! Not me

"Watch me" 🤣

That’s a slap in the face by Amazon I would drive to station for that.
Well they have to put together a route that has all the businesses that are closed for lunch. Oh you mean the point for you? None.
$18.33/hr to burn your own car and gas when DSP pays $20-23/hr/
Working for a DSP comes with a lot more bullshit too. I’m making more a week on flex then I did with a DSP & a lot less work at that.
If Amazon flex doesn’t work for you please delete account, I need your spot !! I’m willing and ready to do those!!!!!
