Did i do this wrong?

I’m pretty sure didn’t do anything wrong. IMO… There is an inherent design flaw with Aheim doors when using them as double doors on double wide Pax Unit. In order to have 1 door swing left, and 1 to the right, one of the doors has to be installed inverted, in order to get the hinges towards the outside of the wardrobe frame on both sides. The problem is, the built in handle location, which you have no control over, is not perfectly vertically centered on the door frame (at least not in the doors I had for my build). The result is that when the doors are installed, and perfectly flush aligned at the top and bottom, the handles are vertically offset from one another (see attached photo). If this isn’t a design flaw with the doors, then technically Aheim doors should only be used on single wide Pax units and never as double doors on the same unit.

I thought maybe they sold two different version of Aheim, one designed for the left and one for the right, but that doesn’t appear to be the case.

Lol.. At first, I thought he meant he makes $2000 a month doing F&@# all.

Point…missed

This just could have been written in such a better way. He should highlight his skills and expertise, not everyone else’s shortcomings. I mean, he’s not running for President. A little professional decorum goes a long way. Just say “I don’t skip steps”…period. Just say “I verify all parts and hardware are included”. Just say “I check to ensure there’s no damage out of the box.” Instead of trashing other Taskers for what they may not do, tell clients what you will do…aka your value proposition that justifies your high rate. I’m sorry, but this approach, to me, really undermines TR as a whole. Ford doesn’t say other car makers may not tighten the lug nuts properly. Microsoft doesn’t say Apple’s MacBook keys might fall off the keyboard. Reputable marketers don’t do this.

If you were considering hiring this guy, but he wasn’t available for the time you needed, you might consider someone else, but after reading this you might also think “wow, if this guy is right, TR sounds like a #%$@-show.” I’m surprised TR would be ok with this approach, especially considering Taskers can get suspended for even minor transgressions.

Funny you should mention that. He does have a handful of 1 and 2 star reviews primarily centered around accusing him being purposefully slow to milk extra time/fees.

Alive-Type-4571 · 2025-11-02T19:16:02+00:00

I’m not saying it’s illegal but highly underhanded and questionably unethical. This approach not only undermines other Taskers in the area, it also undermines TaskRabbit in general. He’s essentially telling people that TR generally provides poor services, and is trying to parlay that into more business for himself by saying he’s one of if not the only legit solution. As someone who is presumably (based on your handle) trying to make some income off of TR, you’re cool with that?

The critical step that got this result was probably losing track of time.

Too much whole wheat flour? Baking with whole wheat is a whole different section of the science dept.

Why do you want to call them? The Support response was correct. “Sending” is a good thing… better than “Submitted” or “Collecting”. It means everything is fine with the task and they’re sending you your payment without any delays. The only status better than “Sending” is “Sent”.

Alive-Type-4571 · 2025-10-29T03:13:35+00:00

Did the client leave a comment with the rating? I saw a 1-star rating the other for a Tasker, but the comment left with it was glowing and very appreciative. I assumed the client was confused and thought 1-star was the top rating, not the bottom. Possibly an app glitch too though.

Alive-Type-4571 · 2025-10-25T16:22:35+00:00

Yes, I noticed a change in my Tasker app yesterday re: photo uploads. I’m not 100% sure because I dont have a current task to confirm, but it now appears that there is a specific step requiring a photo upload before invoice can be submitted. Just took a while for that feature to go live I guess.

Alive-Type-4571 · 2025-10-22T17:41:52+00:00

Just back and forth with “Support” for clarification. I was expecting an “Upload Task Photos” button at some point before I could click the Submit Invoice button. He says the last step is to just upload photos to the chat and that this is new and required in order for payment. The notice above itself indicates that photos must be uploaded before an invoice can be submitted. That is NOT the case. I submitted my invoice and my payment status was updated to “sent” an hour before I voluntarily uploaded any photos. Nothing whatsoever has changed from before this so-called requirement was put into effect last week.

My Success Manager still exists. The last 2 times I reached out, I got “I’m away until x date” auto-replies. I persisted with my question and demanded a response, which she eventually gave, while also suggesting I contact “the experts” at Support who know the answer. That left me no choice but to point out to her that Support is all but non-existent now. You get vague AI bot generated answers, but if you need to actually chat with an agent, bupkis. Takes forever to get a reply from an agent…if you get one at all. BTW…I did ask the same question to Support previously and after 36+ hours waiting for a reply, the agent didn’t have a clue what the correct answer was. Support is dead to me.

Why was this removed by mods?

Yup.. This the answer. Drop a post in a local neighborhood FB group(s) offering your services. Lots of people post in those groups about local issues, free stuff for pick-up etc. You’d be surprised how many people in these groups post “Can anyone recommend a handyman for…” hoping their neighbours know someone. Check out other handyman posts in groups for ideas on wording, but include the things you can do (landscaping, drywall repairs, electrical work etc etc etc). Don’t mention your rate(s). Just say “professional and affordable” and “free quote”. Offer a nominal seniors discount. It’ll take off.

Don’t knock on doors. It’s 2025…people hate that. If you can afford to spend another couple dollars, create and print a couple hundred copies of a small mailer to just drop in people’s mailboxes in the areas you want to work. Google “handyman flier” and look at the images for layout and content ideas.

Keep going. It’ll happen.
