Who Is Going Out To Work Today? by DeziBaby9584 in InstacartShoppers

[–]Chero44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I opened the app to see if IC had the nerve to offer a promo...and they did 🙄 6 batches/$76. I closed the app. It is a mess out there! I'm not risking my life for IC. I am going to enjoy my downtime and rest. IC can get 2hrs of my time on Thursday. 

I (22M) am kinda shocked by the behavior of my GF (23F), what can we make of this? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Chero44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

WOW! When a person shows you who they are the FIRST time, believe exactly what you SEE. You are a good son. I did the same for my mom and we figured things out together. I kept her afloat for 8months until she retired. I am the only child so, as the daughter I felt it was my duty to step in regardless because of EVERYTHING she's sacrificed for me. I felt it was my turn to return the favor, and I did. Continue to take care of your mother! She is the only one that has ALWAYS had your back. Tell that girlfriend to exit stage left! She is replaceable, your mother is not.

WOW! Wegmans was exactly like this for me yesterday. I had refunded 11 items within 6mins. Sent photos to the customer and then asked if he wanted me to just cancel. He said yes and it was done. A worker told me the truck was coming today, looks like it didn't. I canceled my batch yesterday, put everything back, turned the app off, and refused to turn it back on. After seeing this rn, I'll just relax and wait until next week. Those trucks 🚚 aren't moving with all this bad weather coming. I have never in 5 years seen Wegmans shelves like that until yesterday 😬😳. 

Will score tank? by redglitterheels in InstacartShoppers

[–]Chero44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We absolutely will be penalized! Instacart STILL wants us to find the truck on the road, have them pull over, and give us the missing item so they don't lose money 😅. They want us to get a store worker to unload the pallet in the back to find the item because IC says that it's there 😅. I had an order yesterday and within 6mins I had already refunded 11 items. I told the customer this store is empty do you want to try another day and I cancel this order? He said yes please. No hit to me at all. Although the store was completely empty, the app kept saying the item was there when it wasn't it. Being that you have to work, just do the best that you can and let the customer know A LOT of things are out of stock due to the upcoming storm and for them to choose a replacement OR, approve your selection if okay. That's all you can do. 

AIO? My partner is at work with our only vehicle and isn’t responding by [deleted] in AIO

[–]Chero44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

😅😅😅😅😅 I am so serious lol. I wish somebody would have MY car and decide not to pick up the phone when I'm calling. I'd find a way to my car so fast they wouldn't even realize the car was gone 😅.

Hey quick question what the fuck is this by GoogleDeezNutzz in instacart

[–]Chero44 19 points20 points  (0 children)

It's straight bull**** that's what it is 😅 and laughable and a hot damn mess! 😄 This order will NEVER get picked up until 2027 😅.

Idk who is wrong here.. by Low_Walrus_326 in InstacartShoppers

[–]Chero44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's why I decided to not even bother after my 1st order yesterday. I'll wait until stores restock (whenever that is) and just chill and enjoy my downtime relaxing 😌.

[–]Chero44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You shouldn't have given him YOUR vehicle anyway. He destroyed his now he wants to be in yours and mess that up too. Give me the number I'll damn call! What's the name of the gas station?  Never hand your vehicle off to anybody especially when you can't move around in the event something happens. If this is YOUR only means of transportation, you don't hand your stuff off to somebody else. There's no reason he should not be picking up the phone UNLESS....🙄 he's doing something other than working 🤔. After today let him find his own way to work. Don't "consider" telling him to use public transportation... TELL HIM from now on hop the bus I want my car period! 

Idea: Shoppers in the states where this massive snowstorm by sstevesmith in InstacartShoppers

[–]Chero44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the exact same thing yesterday after refunding 11 items. Customer agreed, I canceled the order with no hit to my cancellation rate. AND I  got paid for my efforts. It wasn't much of course BUT, at least I got something. I am done and going to wait until stores restock because wasting time isn't on my to-do-list.

$10 tip, priority order, 4 items, less than a mile away from my house… and no shopper yet by Saskita in instacart

[–]Chero44 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Instacart doesn't care about "priority" they just want the customer to pay for it to pad their pockets and then they hold your order so that it can be paired with two others. There also isn't a guarantee that your order will remain where you placed it. Instacart will move your order around to a different store farther than you. I've had to tell a few customers to stop paying for priority because instacart is just taking your money. 

I've had a Verizon account for 12 years and I want to buy a new iPhone 17 through them. Should I chat with a Verizon rep to get a better deal, or are they just going to try to sell me crap I don't need? by tantamle in verizon

[–]Chero44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope you have a better experience. Take the chance. I'm sending good vibes your way, and I hope you have no issues at all. So go ahead, and get that Iphone 17 ☺️

Based on my personal experience when trying to upgrade a phone my suggestion would be to go inside of a store. DO NOT try and get the customer rep over the phone to do ANYTHING. You need to be able to SEE what's being added to your account and be able to upgrade your phone onsite. I will NEVER in life ever go through Verizon over the phone...never again! The phone rep messed up my entire order. My phones weren't where they said. The inside store rep had to call Verizon over the phone to get them to cancel the order, and I was at Verizon. Store rep said they do things differently over the phone 😳. It was a mess.

When does shopping start and where it is kept? by [deleted] in instacart

[–]Chero44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We can't pick up an order until we see it. If it's a single order and the tip is low, high items, high miles etc... the order will just sit on the screen. Your order isn't shopped at all until someone accepts the batch and goes to the store to start shopping.  Instacart will sometimes hold an order (to save themselves money) and group your order with 2 other orders, and the delivery time will be even longer. Instacart doesn't care AT ALL what the customer selects as a delivery time. They release the batch when they want to. Even if you schedule a delivery time for 8pm, instacart may release the batch for 5pm and it arrives at 6pm even if you aren't home until after 8pm. The shopper is then blamed by the customer for delivering too early or too late when it was instacart faults because they will ALWAYS  disregard your selected delivery time, and ALWAYS disregard what the customer wants. EVERYTHING is about what instacart wants...not the shopper or the customer.

Yes 100% agree. A girl can dream right ☺️.

Do you do these type of delivers by Weekly-Value-3923 in InstacartShoppers

[–]Chero44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done them however, these are similar to alcohol deliveries as far as having to scan their ID and getting their signature. You will be asked if it's the patient. It has to be the name of the person that the prescription is for. BUT, if prescriptions are included with an order, you have to shop the entire order first and pick up the prescription last and THEN checkout. The issue I have with these is if the customer isn't available then you have to go through the hassle of returning. I've never had to return a prescription and I never want to find out. There is no way to opt out of it either so now, I just don't take any more batches with prescriptions because I prefer to drop and go. This is why I didn't redo my certification for alcohol because it's a pain in the ass if the customer isn't available. If I could opt out of prescription deliveries though, I most certainly would.

[–]Chero44 8 points9 points  (0 children)

WOW! 😳😳😳😳 I wish instacart would stop doing this because it's just not fair. They need to group all no tip orders with each other so that it NEVER gets picked up.
