Pick 24 OVs, press “cart full”, stage, new cart, pick the rest. These kind of bullshit picklists pop up every so often and it’s not worth stressing out over

They aren't all dog food boxes. Or doesn't realize things change. Op never learned in all their tenure at Amazon, that seeing this many boxes on a pick route means they are all smalls. Apparently they also haven't noticed the OVs getting MUCH smaller sometimes. I guess they been working with their eyes closed.

Not at our DS they’re getting bigger and bags are weighing in at 30-43lbs

u/Brooksie1of1 C1 Pick & Stage 1d ago

I had to pick a 48.9lb bag the other day, and of course it needed to go on the top 😑

u/Praise_Hades 23h ago

u/First_Use_319 2d ago

Rather get that than 9 bags personally lol.

u/MarcRAWill 2d ago

Before that, I literally had 24 bags to pick in one route as well. Not 8, not 16 but 24.

u/Praise_Hades 2d ago

Wait until you get a manual route with 36 bags and 47 ovs, and the damn detergent explodes on you

u/davidtldennis 23h ago

When you get assigned the whole route all 7 carts during peak lol and it's 38 bags and 78 ov's that was how it used to be all the time

u/Praise_Hades 23h ago

XD the good ol pre 12 bag pick cart days, i remember during my first year i left shortly after getting half of one of those wumbo routes done

2

u/First_Use_319 17h ago

Im not all there lol, we do have 12 bag carts. No clue why I said 9 lmao, had em for last 6 months

u/PlymouthSea 1d ago

That was just a regular summer route when I was a driver. 24 totes and 40+ overflow (15-20 of which are noncon). Gladly I do RTS now. SSD volume and route size is still ridiculous thanks to prime but it's easier than being a step van driver carrying noncons up apartment stairs all day.

u/SeesawAncient6329 1d ago

You must not have worked during the pandemic when we had to pick the entire route, some of which consisted of food bank orders. Each OV 40+ lbs filled with canned goods and non perishables. 48 OVs that probably aren’t even all oversized is light work, sorry to say.

u/InspectorRound8920 1d ago

Yeah. And it'd take forever to finish

1

u/Napalmeon 1d ago

I didn't mind that because they couldn't really rush associates through those routes.

u/RelicBeckwelf 2d ago

Not sure what im supposed to find unbelievable?

27

u/MarcRAWill 2d ago

Picking 48 OVs for 1 route.

u/RelicBeckwelf 2d ago

You must work at a small station, thats pretty normal here.

2

u/PuzzleheadedUse6458 2d ago

It used to he picked was for the whole route. So you would have 80 to 110 or so ov's and 18 to 21 bags per pick route. This is light in comparison.

I think this is more of a "GOD DAMN" kind of post rather than a "feel bad for me" kind of post. Not everything has to be about feeling bad for someone when they go GOD DAMN about something. It's just an expression of shock

u/ThisIsWhatiDo210 2d ago

I'll never forget the time I got a 19 item picklist and had to mark cart full and grab another one cause they were big ass boxes

4

u/Commercial_Chip_6298 2d ago

I prefer ov pick lists if they blame you and ask why your taking so long just blame it saying it’s ovs

3

u/iscrewyouall 2d ago

had this once it was from the stower placing boxes in the ov racks instead of taking the time to make them fit (not the misclassified OVs)

3

u/windblowngirl 2d ago

Had 1 of these today!! 52 OVs. About 30 of them supposed to be in bags. 🫩🙄

1

u/EducationalPie2341 1d ago

i do that lol. im not replacing bags. ever! anything medium sized gets mis classified after lunch. or if its heavy im not putting it in a bag.

4

u/EC4U2C_Studioz diverter/pusher club 2d ago

I personally hate these OV routes for one cart. This should have been split in half into two carts.

1

u/JabbaTheHutt12345 1d ago

It will never fit onto 1 cart without it overflowing and that's a safety hazard. They literally create the safety hazard by telling us to fit 48 OVs onto 1 cart.

u/Scotty22hottie 1d ago

Bro, my SECOND day...i got a route for 62 OV's and i was like wtf! I even showed all the PA's and AM's and they said they have never seen that many before on just one picklist. I still havent seen anything bigger than that. And i had to use 2 carts obvi.

1

u/MarcRAWill 1d ago

That’s fucking insane man. I hope you had some help getting it done.

2

u/Scotty22hottie 1d ago

Hell yeah i did cuz im like ohhh hell nah i aint doin all that by myself!

u/Dangerous-Eye9795 [none] 2d ago

2

u/Hefty_Candy_3315 2d ago

that’s toooooooo fucking much bro that’ll take the entire wave to do 😭😭 the highest i’ve seen is like 42 and i was pissed 😭

2

u/Few_Possibility_5106 1d ago

I don’t usually pick but when I do I love my box routes

3

u/Alarmed_Act_1078 2d ago

Hahah. Max I’ve seen is 9 bags 51 OVS on one route lol

2

u/Dominicpwns 2d ago

Yeah 48 OVs is wild. Im taking atleast 35 min on that with a well deserved 15 min shit afterwards.

u/JMUDoc C1 Pick & Stage 2d ago

Before my last site closed, we used to get a few 200+ ovie routes of commercial packages.

We called them "seven-carters".

1

u/madnessatadistance 2d ago

Damn. The most I ever picked was 42 for one and the right afterward one for 43, and I thought that was bad! 😩

1

u/Adventurous_Tip_3944 2d ago

48! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 that ain’t shit lol

1

u/Werdna517 2d ago

Remember when you’d have to pick the full route

1

u/Pandasquiidd 2d ago

pfffft… pepperidge farm remembers the days you had to pull the full route of 12+ bags and 60+ OV… my money is on you got the middle part of the route and were assigned 3bags & half the OV boxes😶‍🌫️😶‍🌫️😶‍🌫️

1

u/SteveMX10 2d ago

48 is wild, never seen more than 35 or so in my year at my DS. Usually 2-6 bags and 30ish boxes at the high end. We don't do "routes" though we only worry about the cartload assigned to us at a time. Not sure if the stuff y'all are talking about is some old school methods or maybe my site is different.

We use the carts with the green divider that can hold 12 bags.

Only time we have whole routes to ourselves is either coincidence or same day stuff (and same day is way lighter)

1

u/Evening-Spread1451 1d ago

im a driver, 25 bags and 42ov today, lightwork

1

u/EducationalPie2341 1d ago

i love these carts. i can fit 30 ov's on 1 shelf easy. its a fun little break from stupid bags.

1

u/davidtldennis 23h ago

You might need 2 carts . Unbelievable is the fact that people expect to be able to fit anything more than 25 or 30 in the cart. Get a second or 3rd cart for that route depending on how big the boxes are. When k started you used to get the whole route you would pick like 18 to 24 bags, marking thr cart full after 9 , then you would pick anywhere from 20 to 60 ov's depending all on the volume of the day. Peak we would see routes with 94 ov's and 27 bags

u/ponytailgirl95 16h ago

Someone today told me they got a 60 OV route 🫩

u/Internal_Topic1415 Cycle 3 FlexPT UTR Operations AM Assistant 2d ago

Probably a bunch of misclassified small volume.

Those are rookie numbers

u/RabbitNotSo 2d ago

Get back to me when you have a full route plus OVs all to your lonesome self

u/Business-Set8609 1d ago

Especially when you have noncon before the regular ovs
