What would you think?

I have a job as a warehouse/delivery driver.

So today I found out or was told that the company plans to start adding a $3.50 delivery charge to every delivery instead of what was touted as free delivery. The free delivery was supposed to be a selling item for new customers.

That is going to seriously cut the amount of deliveries as people will come in and pick their shit up.

On top of that any deliveries that are made are going to get the "deliver when complete" moniker so they will sit in the warehouse until every item comes in. With their idiotic supply chain that can take awhile.

The warehouse will end up looking like a lay-a-way department.

The salesman said this morning that he was supposed to have 80 of the new sales catalogs that came in with him to hand out. I have been handing out the catalogs and flyers, because I actually go to the stops instead of calling them.

The manager informed me a week ago that he has been trying to get someone in there for the front counter and warehouse that used to work there. There isn't enough warehouse work to keep anyone one person busy let alone 4 people in it including the manager.

It look about an hour to check in and put away the entire transfer truck this morning. There were 2 of us that did most of it.

Their computer system won't let me write up orders and/or I have never been trained to write them up properly. That means that I can't wait on customers other than to pull what they want from the back and have someone else write up the sale.

I am listed as Warehouse/Driver on my time clock page. No Counter.

They have a thing set up through Evergreen Marketing for everyone else that works there to take watch videos and take little tests about products there. They would not even reply to my attempt to set up my own account there.

The employees can sit around and do that all day and earn Amazon dollars. Pretty fucking genius to promote the competition while getting your employees to not work at the same time.

It really sounds to me like they are either trying to make me quit or that they are planning to do away with the driver position and go back to the salesman delivery his own stuff.

If someone out there actually wants an employee that gives a rat's ass about doing their job correctly and is willing to pay a living wage with insurance let me know.
