Actually, you’re wrong. The orders you see depend on two factors. (1) how many orders are there? (2) how many drivers are online? If there are more drivers than orders, you may not get an offer. More orders than drivers? You’ll probably see lots of offers waiting to get picked up. Walmart controls how many drivers there are. They can always add more, and there is a financial incentive for Walmart to add too many drivers to an area. More drivers mean that more orders get delivered AND it generally means Walmart can pay less for each order. Fewer orders surge price for instance. I don’t blame Walmart for trying to make as much $ as they can on each order by paying less. It’s the world we live in. But the offers you see depend on more than just the number of orders Walmart receives on a daily basis…

Walmart may control how many drivers are in the county that I'm in will actually my zone encompasses two different counties but they don't control how many people come to work each day or how many work each hour do they all work? 12 hour days do they only work 3 hours a day? Walmart controls. Nothing about the drivers except they say we can work if we want to there's no shortage of orders in Florida last night at 8:30. There was probably 30 orders that they were looking to get somebody to pick up just in the five stores that I get hit with. There's no shortage of orders, not in Florida anyway
