[QUOTE="dmac1, post: 4586999, member: 60252"] I had two Amazon deliveries scheduled for delivery the same day. Both were coming from the center about 65 miles away. Got notified by email for each order that packages were out for delivery. One arrived at about 2 pm. Wondered where the other was, checked and it was scheduled for delivery at 6 pm. Different driver, different truck. If Amazon is scheduling deliveries like that and can't combine orders, it costs the contractors more, so of course they get 'disgruntled' One difference with Amazon cancelling a contract vs Amazon is that the 'partner' leases the vehicles directly from Amazon, so once the contract is terminated, there is no vehicle liability for the contractor. An Amazon 'partner' will not have spent thousands or hundreds of thousands to get into thr business. . But a lot of their drivers are terrible in that they blindly follow their tracking/GPS system and don't even look for an address. [/QUOTE]
