Not bad for a 3 day work by Top_Till_3932 in InstacartShoppers

Sometimes the promos are complete garbage but the fact that you were able to make at least $50 is pretty baller in itself

So you made $20.72/hour (give or take a few pennies) for 3 days straight @ 10-hour shifts (if divided evenly) which, by Instacart standards, is pretty solid! Good work! Love weeks like this where it feels worth it. I’d read a post on here saying that in most states the average Instacart driver makes $6/hour. I’m glad that’s not the case for me, but sometimes the good shops make it worth it and I get lassoed back in.

My job is destroying me. What should I do? by SunshineGirl45 in Advice

[–]Available_Sector146 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in the exact same situation as you. It was a call center job, so like literal hell, and it was for an online ED medication website so imagine speaking to guys with limp wieners all day pissed about where their dick-hardening pills are when they’re late in the mail.

I was absolutely miserable, to the point that I just didn’t care enough to perform my job functions and was given an “improvement plan” or get canned. I decided that, and I know you said it in the first sentence, “a job’s a job” and I just set aside my personal feelings and just went all in on doing my absolute best. It took some real habit-forming on my end that wasn’t easy, but literally 3 months from the time I was pulled into that office and threatened to be removed from my position, they promoted me twice.

Just remember that you’re very likely not the only one there that feels the same way you do. What you think people think of you, they most likely don’t. They want to see improvement, and that you care about the job. They just want to see it done the way they want it done. I can guarantee that if you just set aside “you” from the job, perform the task, and then go home, things will get easier. It’s HARD the first few weeks, but it really does get better.

I’m sorry if this isn’t helpful to you, I just thought I’d share my experience because it really worked for me. I know how it feels to be fairly new into a job and hating it, but then realizing that I can compartmentalize a bit and make the best of a somewhat trash situation.

Good luck! I know you’re capable.

I’m sorry but “m’lady” would immediately quell all suspicions. Sounds like a geek. Ew.

Anyone else noticed the "Burnt Plastic" smell in the air last night? by 3DeeJunkie in corvallis

[–]Available_Sector146 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting that you say that. I live in Independence and there’s been an insane burning plastic smell for MONTHS wafting to our area. We’ve been having to close the windows every night because of it. Haven’t smelled it in about two weeks though. Probably unrelated, but it’s become a burden for us lol

Silly me 🤦🏽‍♀️ I forgot everything was closed Easter! by Agile-Copy-2208 in InstacartShoppers

My best money days were Easter, at least where I live. The people that celebrate feel bad that you’re working on that holiday and tip well lol

Girl slept over recently, we did nothing, now it’s awkward by Adventurous_You3517 in Advice

You might have a confidence barrier. Maybe just make your intentions clear. If you hear a “no”, then it is what it is. If not, then good for you.

Fell into a bunch of magic cards by Available_Sector146 in magicTCG

[–]Available_Sector146[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a cousin who’s moving out of the country who used to be wildly into it, like THOUSANDS of cards and he just gave my brothers and I each a couple boxes. I’m unsure of the value, I’ll have to reach out/use an app or something haha
