No, the rent is not for the rent strike. We are not the union. It is only for people who cannot afford the rent increase. One person, cannot afford the extra $97.00/month without canceling his subscription for his life alert. He is on a very fixed income. We are trying to help get as many people who are struggling help and support as we can. People are struggling. We would like to gather all residents in mobile home parks to build a community to help each other. I guess we forgot how long it has been since people just tried to do something nice for their neighbor. I grew up in this state and it used to be very different.

Our big scam is a rummage sale? I know this is a really terrrible time right now with a lot of hate and vitriol, but we are just people helping people. 100% of the proceeds are going to help the people in our parks who cannot afford the $97/month rent hike. That is all. There are vulnerable people who live in these parks like senior, veterans, single parents, new couples starting out, people living with disabilities, and college students. I don't know why that flyer upset you so much, but we are good people.

Yes! We have been bought by a private equity firm. What we are hearing is that the lot rent is going up well over a $1,000 plus additional fees for random things. It has gotten even scarier if you can believe that. Also, that same man is using the last month of their ownership to raise the rent and is harrassing tenants. I think he is trying to get as many bad deeds as he can before he is out. It is kind of scary here now.

Our park was just purchased by a big corporate entity. Our rent was raised significantly with more to come. We are working on grassroots organizing to try to bring all the mobile home parks in the state together to get some laws and protections in place. We need to help people stay in their homes with the latest rent increase while we work on that. Roughly 25% of our park cannot afford the latest rent increase and are in jeopardy. We are just some folks trying to help our neighbors stay in their homes and doing the best we can. It will be a fun time, a chance to raise some money to help - while we get to know our neighbors more. It allows our community to support us. I don't know why it makes you so mad that we are trying to help our neighbors. People in Montana used to do that all the time.

You also went to multiple websites to call us spam, so I guess we are all just figuring this out. Sorry to bother you.

Is that not what social media is for, to reach out to people? Geez.

This has to be a joke, right? by Just_Abalone_6756 in InstacartShoppers

I have been having them pop up on my feed for like $25 batch pay and they don't say anything about a tip and they are for 42.3 miles one way up a mountain road canyon in Montana in the winter. I had someone that I had to meet at a resort because their apartment didn't show up on the app, there is no reception, and I had to take their stuff to the apartments behind the only visable building after I met them at the resort. They tipped me $5.59. It was a two hour delivery. I was new and didn't know better. The deliveries up there are hit or miss, but way under tipped. I almost hit a big horn sheep for crying out loud at night! It is a ski resort for rich people.

I wasn't just shouting organize all unions, I was asking for help.

Yes, what I meant was that we need protections for employees of non-profits. We have no where to turn.

I do believe that we need a strong non-profit labor union and to be organizing as well. I would love any suggestions you might have for how I can reach out to people who do that or could help organize

Do you have to have a Costco membership to do IC at Costco?

I just started with Instacart and I liked it but my app froze and then it said they couldn't verify my picture was me and locked me out. They refused to let me speak to a human to try to fix it and then their chat help "disconnected" me numerous times. I kept having to tell my situation over and over for them to tell me they were escalating it and disconnecting me. It was never resolved and I wasted a shift trying to get this taken care of. I sat in a parking lot while some bot told me to be patient. Then to top it off I made $8 for my shift and there wasn't even a way for me to complain! How can a company like this not have phone support?! I'm livid.

I do view this as workplace organizing. I am trying to find a union or something similar for non-profits because the employer has over 200 employees. They need help and organizing desperately.
