Meet a delivery partner earning on her own schedule this school year

Back-to-school season means new routines and new expenses. For Sanqual, a kindergarten teacher in Augusta, Georgia, delivering with Amazon Flex gives her the flexibility to adjust to the school schedule and the extra income to cover supplies for her kids.

Sanqual started delivering with Amazon Flex in May 2026. As a teacher heading into her fourteenth year in the classroom, she wanted something flexible that would fit around her school schedule.

"I did not want to clock in somewhere every day," said Sanqual. "I wanted to make my own schedule and go for just a few hours and only when it worked for me."

What Sanqual likes most about Amazon Flex is how quickly she can access her earnings. With Amazon Flex Instant Pay, payment arrives shortly after completing a block, which makes a difference when back-to-school expenses add up fast.

"Amazon Flex comes in handy to pay the bills or buy groceries with," said Sanqual. "I'm currently saving up for a car and household things, and getting paid right after my route helps me plan."

During the summer, Sanqual delivered frequently. Now that school is back in session, she picks up blocks on Friday afternoons and early Saturday mornings, fitting deliveries around her teaching schedule and the schedule of her two children.

Beyond the flexibility and fast pay, Sanqual enjoys the personal connections she makes on her routes. "I love handing someone their package and saying, 'Hey, how are you doing?' Older people especially like the visit," she said.

Thank you to Sanqual, for delivering smiles to Amazon customers and for inspiring her community both in and out of the classroom.
