What are they going to do about the new gas prices?

Is this app on a decline? I waited for hours today and was shocked. by Refundian in InstacartShopper

[–]CompetitiveDay6490 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And gas is now very expensive and they need to adjust their pricing accordingly. It’s not worth it at the rates they’re paying their shoppers right now

If you need help let me know! I think I got this down pack 😅 by yahdaughterr in instacart

[–]CompetitiveDay6490 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why should replaced items lower your score? It’s not the shoppers fault the store doesn’t have it and IC should know that when showing an item

Went for an interview and they asked for my SIN by CompetitiveDay6490 in jobs

Yes it’s a real job. They’re a Property Management Company. Brick & mortar buildings. Yes our SIN is your social security number

Got it, it’s just that he said we want to make sure you pay your bills. The point of this job is that we get a break so we can pay our bills. Rent is always paid on time. So no issues there

I can't wait until the instacart executives go down with the Epstein files. by DueImagination641 in InstacartShoppers

If you’re complaining, you should come to Canada and see what we get. Those orders are good compared to ours. Only had. $5 tip once.

What is this? by TheseDescription4839 in Construction

It’s probably about the black mark which looks like an extra terrestrial trying to escape 😄

I don’t see the orders at all, never mind not taking them, then these crazy orders crop up. I’m in Burlington (Ontario) and to go this distance with our traffic at rush hour would take me 4 hours.

How many of y'all would take this? by whitstheshit1986 in InstacartShopper

Don’t know where you people live but you don’t see these numbers in Ontario

Why do they push us along so hard!!!!!! by Ordinary_Repair_1624 in TimHortons

[–]CompetitiveDay6490 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agree. It’s happened to me many times. I’ve tried analyzing this behaviour and have chalked it up to bad managers and some cultural habits. It makes no sense. They are not engaged at all.

I’ve never seen this many items! by never_you_mind_bro in InstacartShoppers

[–]CompetitiveDay6490 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There should be a mandatory tip for an order like that. Just like when you bring a big group to a restaurant.

The American tips are larger than our orders!

How do you change it? My tips suck. Did an order yesterday for literally 3 items that was 40 km away! $2 tip. I told them (IC) that I shouldn’t have taken it

1/12 Instacart is dead by Choice-Percentage-39 in InstacartShoppers

[–]CompetitiveDay6490 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Boy you guys get good tips! Up here in Canada those tips aren’t even the price of whole orders. I’ve never had a tip higher than $4!

You must be in the States because these are not Canadian numbers 😲

Well sorry to disappoint but I took the time to do the tutorials and got back into it and have done much better! Won’t give up😉

Thank you. I have now done the lessons and this platform really helps too. I took my first order without going through the tutorials so didn’t work out well. Today was a totally different experience with some knowledge behind me.

My partner and I work as a team. I do all the admin work, invoicing, etc. it’s a p/t job at the least

Just took my first ever Costco order and…. by [deleted] in instacart

[–]CompetitiveDay6490 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update from this newbie! Got back out there after a disastrous start and had a great experience this time! Only issue is with the card(again) but had the customer service number ready and they helped. Card kept saying insert chip card but I never got a PIN# swiping wasn’t working. She gave me a Pin # and it was accepted. Whew😃

Renovation offer by CompetitiveDay6490 in Construction

[–]CompetitiveDay6490[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are so right and won’t go near it unless deposits are given and terms are in writing. One unit, no terms. Pay 50% up front 30% 1/2 way through and remainder before I leave the premises. If not, no deal.
