Pov: 22 yr old college student. I had an amazon flex shift that started at 1:30 pm and ended at 5:00 pm, a 3.5 hr block. I live in michigan so we get tons of snow here. At the beginning of my block the roads were clear but closer to the end of my block the snow started to really come down heavy and stick to the road. Im on my final delivery of the day about 2.5 hrs into the block, so i was about to beat the block schedule by an hr. Final house, i get sent 8 minutes away to a private house with a driveway as long as the harry potter books nd drive all the way to the house which was down a steep hill. I was rushing trying to finish my block. As im walking up to the house with the last package I finally read the delivery notes which says “PLEASE DONT DRIVE ALL THE WAY UP TO THE HOUSE IN THE SNOW! YOU WILL GET STUCK IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO GET OUT!”. I went from being happy that i was finishing to being sick in the stomach. As the notes said, I indeed did get stuck. Luckily, the guy i delivered to was home and he tried helping me out for about 45 mins. We needed 1 more person besides the 2 of us so he called his neighbor, an older man who is an absolute genius 😂 in my head im thinking “how will this older guy help us push” but he knew exactly what to do. He connected a pully to my car, his car, and the guy I delivered to. Both of them pulled my car out with their cars after about 2 hours of work😅 very nice people and although stressful, I enjoyed that interaction with those older guys. Doesn’t happen alot anymore in these times. But dont get me wrong, still mad at amazon for sending me to that house!
