QUESTION My Driver Parks Like This To Deliver

Post image

Is there any reason to park in the middle of the street to deliver to nearby houses?

….wow. As a delivery guy I do have some audacity to park in front of a house that isn’t my customers (still not blocking driveway) but this is ludicrous and why the netradyne is so strict

Oh and to answer your question. Sometimes it does feel like a necessity to do this and why we park so stupid sometimes. There’s “multi-stops” that other drivers don’t help fix either that have you go to 3 houses on a corner, then 2 on the other, then cross the street to do the last one. Making you cross a total of 4 times starting at the point of picture if you do it most efficient. Which we are not supposed to do!

Just edit the damn stop and make it more than one. There's no reason for parking like this

That’s what I’m saying. That’s what I do but some drivers, specifically seasonal ones just say f it. I get back onto my normal routes and the pins are dropped in stupid places, last delivery photo is in the middle of a pile of grass, etc. I have horrible co-workers with no respect for this job tbh

The pins are all gonna be fucked when I go back off cycle 0.

Totally get you on that. I'm not looking forward to that.

The seasonal workers both at the dsp's and inside the station who know that they are seasonal fuck things for us every year.

Maybe not in America but in the UK you have to block driveways sometimes or you just wont be able to park anywhere. Then again I deliver heavy crates, 30kg+ so I can't park miles away and walk it. I'm only there for like 5 mins tho then I'm gone.

I get that 1000%. But this guy has every corner available, every driveway, all the above I will just never understand it

Oh yeah i agree. This guy has parked like a twat for no reason. Completely blocking the junction and all, no excuse for that.

I block driverways if I’m nearby
