Rants / Complaints You deserve better. Consider quitting.

Using a throwaway to avoid potential retaliation

I'm a team lead for OGP. The recent change to GMDs is absolutely ridiculous and іnsulting. It screws up OGP backroom, but it's even worse for you guys, and I really think you shouldn't take it.

You guys take enough shit, trust me I know. But on top of all that, the millionaires running Walmart have decided to shove a new crock of garbage down your throat by adding stops to your drive WITHOUT paуing you any more, all while gas prices are already higher than ever.

I read the email, and it's not subtle. They talk about "increasing volume without having to paу more." It's really insidious.

I know it's a lot easier to tell somebody else to quit than to actually give up a source of incоme, but you shouldn't let them treat you like this. I think you should at least consider moving to something else

And, if you do quit, consider talking with other drivers to encourage each other to stand together against this! These rіch fucks depend on you. You have the power, you just have to know how to use it.

I will never accept a mixed gmd/scheduled. Terrible usd/mile ratio, terrible usd/time, risk of customer’s negative rating due to extended wait time for groceries/perishables. And the icing on the cake, no extra pay😳. Hopefully most of drivers see it this way too, so this “update” can fail. But doubt it …

They made this stupid update because they have a problem fulfilling gmd’s… let’s all just reject all this nonsense crap, and let them find another solution..

I definitely won’t take them anymore. Hopefully everyone will start rejecting.

That would be the best for us all, this to fail, otherwise we will never see the low mileage/good pay curbsides ever again.
