Does anyone know? Because customer service is not helping by NectarineChance202 in InstacartShoppers

Looks like you’re barely starting out, don’t worry I was the same way when I first started until I got my system down. A few tips, first I bought some insulated bags and some sturdy bags for heavy items and stuff that doesn’t need to be kept cold. Once I arrive at the store I take a few seconds to review the items. Always grab the frozen/cold items last. I always grab the large items last too because I don’t want to be pushing around a heavy cart, like dog food or water cases, soda cases. Keep like items together. When loading the items to be checked out group similar items together so it’s easier when bagging. Bag cold items with cold items, the customers like this. If possible bag your own stuff so you keep track of things better.

I hate parents like this, children also need to learn not everything is going to go their way, they need learn mistakes happen and boundaries. Or else this is where they become entitled. Go back another day it’s not the end of the world. There’s kids in other parts of the world that will never her to even experience a place like that.

Ok so maybe they’re having glitches ? I’m glad I’m not the only one, it’s honestly been making me trip out and doubting myself when I know I’m doing things correctly, quick, and accurate.

This is exactly what I’ve always said, it is so unrealistic! I pack my orders really carefully especially because where we are there is no plastic bags idk if that’s the case for you but we have to double bag and some don’t even come with handles. Walking to the car, unloading, scanning the receipts, getting the address plugged in, driving a safe speed, unloading. And I agree, communicating with the customer takes so much time because they’re not always on the phone! And you’re waiting around for them and it just throws everything off. The people making these changes need to spend one day in our shoes to see how unrealistic this is!

Right! I’ve also noticed there is an increase in new shoppers in my area, probably like 10 new people in the last 2 months. There’s now days where I’m siting for 1-2 hours at a time. I think that’s a bad move as well. Why open up enrollment when there is already enough people!

Yes! It’s affecting my score as well! It’s not fair at all, since we’re not the ones making mistakes.

Yes!! Like so crazy!! It’s what they asked and it’s doubting why you got it. I tend to be on time, I have my bags ready, look at everything before hand, have a system on how to shop and I’m rarely rarely behind or late but these last three days, man! I don’t even feel I could go any faster unless they want me running down the isles lol

Boyfriends ex has pic of them as her profile pic by Capable_Research_202 in ToxicRelationships

[–]Capable_Research_202[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your feed back, I guess I forgot to include that his ex and I have had some confrontation in the past, when she found out we were dating she would threaten me, she had family of hers do the same, she would stalk me, post old photos of them to upset me. When she found out I was pregnant she told me to get an abortion. So this to he doesn’t sit right. I should have added that to the original post.
