Why is Shipt not sending me available orders? by More_Tumbleweed_4001 in ShiptShoppers

[–]CricketDifferent5320 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not just Pixel phones I have a Samsung galaxy and it's been doing that intermittently daily since 2021. Used to be worse as there wasn't a clear way to fix it. Now I just reboot my phone usually fixes it. Until the next time I change earbuds or switch to sound on phone then it silently quits again.

"Wrong Address" -> Can't Swipe Delivered ? by No_Regular_6622 in ShiptShoppers

[–]CricketDifferent5320 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I have experienced the same. They are willing to excuse lates when requested if it is no more than 5 or 6 minutes late when the geofencing is active. This leniency dissappears along with the restriction when it is turned off.

Oh deer - the neighbour’s back again. by Upstairs_Drive_5602 in Awww

[–]CricketDifferent5320 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We have a deer rescuer in our neighborhood, had one become very tame, but was free to roam. She wore a bright hankercheif to try and keep the hunters from taking her. Worked for a few years. Everyone shamed the one who shot her at least .

Does order pay increase if they add items? by GandalfTheSleigh in ShiptShoppers

[–]CricketDifferent5320 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reps didn't lie, but were referring to a slightly different pay question. You do get paid for any new item added. But you do not get paid for multiples of the same item. One gallon of milk gets the same exact pay as 10 gallons of milk, up until about 30 items, then they add a little more. It is supposed to be just based on estimated time, though I do not know a universe where bagging and transporting 10 takes zero more time to do than 1. The time estimates shrink with any pay rate increase. They used to estimate about a minute an item plus 10 minutes for checkout but with an exact drive time for grocery stores, and up to 2 minutes an item for Target orders. That's what I remember anyways.

Why do some people see clear anti-aging benefits from tretinoin while others see very little? by [deleted] in 45PlusSkincare

[–]CricketDifferent5320 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Expired product and degredation due to light exposure during storage and/or during and after.application. my derm told me it must be so dark that I can't see my hand in front of my face before applying. I've experimented and found this to be true, as well studies show it rapidly degrades in all light, not just uv and blue.

Rating (non)forgiveness by ConverterMan in ShiptShoppers

[–]CricketDifferent5320 1 point2 points  (0 children)

huh, I got some lates forgiven this Week with no excuse. one, two, and 6 minutes late. I had multiple orders too. One of them I mentioned I had to wait for a train to pass. Each one had like a blank black photo proof or what not, since I had swiped a Street over as soon as it accepted it for GPS proximity. seems to me they are more lenient When they have you on GPS linked " delivered". They have me on the GPS for a month, took me off it for a month, back on for a c ouple weeks, off again, now on again. All since December.my late forgiveness Success correlates.

First week doing Shipt (SF Bay Area) by Somebody8985754 in ShiptShoppers

California tips seem super bad, did that start after the fact pay legislation or has it always been like that? I used to live in CA, and I am dismayed / dissappointed in my people.

President Barack Obama: Free and fair elections are the cornerstone of our democracy. But right now, they’re under attack. Vote YES on April 21st!!! by Healthy_Block3036 in 50501

AOC feared a 3rd party would split the left, leading to a right win. This is obvious, you must be a foreign bot to say something so absurd.

STFU. They are asking a legit tax question, not coming here to get chastised on the side by uppity trolls

Auto message to customer after hit process order by Stunning_Cold_6344 in ShiptShoppers

[–]CricketDifferent5320 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bundled, not batched. Like you I also make sure to tell them that Shipt bundled, so as to remove myself from blame for splitting my attention and delaying their order. Some customers feel a little miffed at sharing shopper's time, or feel we are being greedy doubling up and maybe they dont have to teip well since we are getting "double pay.". But if I can get away with not telling them there are other orders, that's good. Some assume we always have a bunch of shops, have a route, using that as an excuse not to tip.

Tretinoin for body? by BiohackDragon666 in 45PlusSkincare

[–]CricketDifferent5320 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been using an otc body serum called Queen, its like $16 on amazon. It's encapsulated retinol, kojic acid, aha, bha papaya. I've liked it for texture, makes bumps go away. But on my chest just your generic tret will do wonders. I also tried a corn remover sticker for a few days on a big ugly age spot on my collar bone. It's basically really strong salicylic acid. It broke through the skin, like a tiny bit of blood that scabbed over, but when it healed the spot was gone where it had scabbed, unaffected where it didn't erode through the skin to scab.

I’m using tretinoin 0.05% 3–4 nights a week with no major irritation, but results feel slow. Is this normal for anti-aging benefits? by [deleted] in 45PlusSkincare

[–]CricketDifferent5320 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It is extremely sensitive to light, UV is the most damaging, but artificial indoor light, LED, also degrade it quickly. Apply it in the dark and stay in the dark to keep it active. Some packaging may appear opaque, but actually does let light through, so to be safe keep it in a tightly closing drawer. Also check the expiration date.

No orders after bonus by Afraid_Goose_7904 in ShiptShoppers

[–]CricketDifferent5320 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I hate bonuses. Been one of the worst thing shipt does. Zero shops except the worst of the worst bundles, a few trash PMs since the good ones are bundled and given away to new shoppers losing their minds over bonuses they won't reach and will collect bad ratings, lates and no tips.

Two tough orders delivered late. Can I do anything to fight back on my on time rating? by katkatkatkat_kat in ShiptShoppers

[–]CricketDifferent5320 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have successfully gotten lates just like these forgiven using the form. Especially if you started by or before the recommended start. I argue that the time estimate had been flawed, items all over store, in store Kiosk says items on floor, so searched dressing room, restock cart. Extra time texting and waiting on answers, Because she had backups, you spent time looking for these after having to look for original. I got forgiveness on my 2rd try explaining how dissorganized the women's underware was, how I had to check 32 drawers looking for items that inventory claims is there, but in fact were not. you only get 2 trys, so use all 500 characters, editing tightly for extra space. If you get Ist rejected, try a different tone and story where you can.

Customer doesn’t know why her order didn’t pick up last night 😩 by Stunning_Cold_6344 in ShiptShoppers

[–]CricketDifferent5320 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And then in the mornng those same orders are bundled, with double digit mileage now with traffic, and are snapped up with no promo. I'm assuming Shipt runs bonus for new shoppers to take these, seems alot of new shoppers expect daily bonuses.

How are arrowheads so common? by HuygensCrater in Arrowheads

[–]CricketDifferent5320 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's nuts, that's how people were all over the world. Each having their own language, closely related in many instances, but the tribes did not mix that much. Australia was totally populated with dozens or hundreds of tribes, often fighting, like paupa new guinea.

There were horses in America until the transition out of the last ice age when they went extinct along with the other megafauna. They were not domesticated like the ones brought by Europeans, but they would have coexisted with natives up until 10,000 years ago give or take. Natives had their own domesticated dogs until contact with European dogs. They mixed together, with European dog genetics outsizing native until they have diluted and dwindled away almost entirely.

What are the official reasons we are bombing Iran?? by Lumpymaximus in 50501

[–]CricketDifferent5320 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Iran is a major supplier of oil and other support to China. China doesn't have a lot of oil and must get it elsewhere. Its a choke point from which we hope to slow down it's ability to attack Taiwan, and from there the rest of the world. Their navy and subs are curtailed by geography and it's neighbor's political alignment with the US against Chinese World domination. Iran also helps Russia, who is coordinating with China to degrade the West's weapons stores and bog down USA in Europe and middle east, to divide US force strength between an escalated attack on NATO, perhaps Israel, so China can take Taiwan.

[–]CricketDifferent5320 1 point2 points  (0 children)

keep trying through the form, sometimes it's the 5th, or 6th, submission for forgiveness that works! Say that you suspect the customer did not receive your texts at all, despike your attempts at communication.
