Amazon delivery driver hits out at people calling job 'easy' as he reveals pay and how many parcels he gets through

The delivery man took to TikTok to explain how much he does in a day and what he earns from it

An Amazon delivery driver has responded to criticism over his job after people claimed that it was 'easy'.

It's easy to point at other jobs, compare them to your own, and brand them as easy or less work - but the reality is that we have absolutely no idea.

No-one truly knows how tough work might be for another, and this might be one of the prime examples.

As far as most people are concerned, Amazon delivery drivers drive to a few locations in a day and drop some parcels off on doorsteps or at building receptions, before heading home.

But as this TikToker revealed, there are far more stops than anyone would've thought, and it's a lot of graft.

It's easy for those to request next-day delivery on Amazon Prime because they don't feel like waiting a couple more days for their item to arrive, but it's another stop added to the list for those responsible for getting said item to your home.

Content creator @ndouble.1 has been posting content about his delivery job for the American technology company, revealing some of the ins and outs he experiences.

But after claims from viewers that the job isn't as hard as all that, he responded on social media, saying: "Just a quick one for everyone saying that Amazon's proper easy, I just want you to take a minute!"

Flipping the camera, he shared exactly how many stops and packages he had to deliver.

Revealing how full his delivery van was, the TikTok user sighed: "Yeah, that's my day today, 336 stops and no space in the van whatsoever!"










In addition to these stops, he had 788 parcels to carry and deliver.

Whatever you may think, it definitely doesn't look like an easy job, as he pointed to the sky and told viewers that a storm was coming.

Taking to the comments, one was more unsympathetic and wrote: "You could have made two deliveries while you were moaning about it."

Another added: "Worst job i ever had… especially in the RAIN", as a third posted: "Never in my life would I do Amazon again it literally made me sick like physcially lol."

When asked about his pay, the delivery driver revealed: "£130 /route. Today 2 routes 2x pay."

He did also offer a more detailed insight into his earnings, sharing snapshots of his earnings from five- and six-day weeks.

In a busy six-day week, he shared that he earned £885.90, while a regular six-day week was more to the tune of £699.40, and a five-day working week gave him £579.50, which he confirmed was before taxes.
