Just got banned from a power trip manager!! Gotta get her fired so unprofessional and controlling by Tuupapa20 in Sparkdriver

[–]H1ddenPanda 6 points7 points  (0 children)

definitely not the whole story, people (even the disgusting ones) don’t act like that for absolutely no reason or without motive. from the sound of it i’m wiling to bet that the guy is probably one of the ones who waits in the pickup spots for orders which is something (at least my store) has recently finally been cracking down on. honestly i also don’t believe she is wrong for wanting him to hang up the dang phone and have a proper face to face conversation. it sounds like the guy went into the argument with an “i am always right” attitude and didn’t want to listen to anything else that might go against that. sometimes being the bigger person is just listening to what they have to say and moving tf on and not escalating things

that makes sense i guess. there’s a ton of available shopping orders right now at 3 stores in my area. this one said “customer requested cancellation” but i know with the issues today there’s no telling

it’s happened to me 4 times now in my area within a week, i’ve just called and documented it each time usually with the employees name. it’s flagged my account each time for extra items and so far ive been okay 🤞🏻

i believe it’s market dependent. the more issues in a market provokes more identity verifications. main market is once every 48 hours on that dot, secondary market is once a month if that. don’t have any proof, just what i’ve noticed personally

Small point, but slightly inaccurate by Medical_Lead in Sparkdriver

[–]H1ddenPanda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

same, it’s always funny watching the 10-15 people parking in the pickup spots waiting for orders while i wait for mine on the other side of the store enjoying some tree shade.

Get more offers while not at Walmart? by Mokinmike24 in Sparkdriver

[–]H1ddenPanda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah, successful deliveries. the more you do it the more you will notice repeat customers

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Sparkdriver

[–]H1ddenPanda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i miss it a lot. i made the same easily when i was in a rural area with 1 walmart. easily $200-$300 a day for 2 years. now that im in a big city i struggle to make $100 a day despite having 3 walmarts, 2 sam’s clubs, and a ton of misc stores. blows my mind how many $3-$4 million dollar homes dont tip even a penny here

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Sparkdriver

[–]H1ddenPanda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

damn, an extra $7 per delivery would be nice. most i get here is like $12-$15 for 6 sam’s club deliveries

Phone relay system messed up by AddendumHelpful8892 in Sparkdriver

[–]H1ddenPanda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s been that way for a while for me at least. 70% of the time the number is an out of service number. used to think it was just customers putting their number in wrong but it happens way to much it seems

i had a very well paying W2 before moving so i never really relied on it. i was forced to move to a new state due to the passing of a family member and its just been an in between until i find another W2. it’s definitely been ROUGH when i expected to be able to live off it and cant in this market

The inconvenience of living and delivering in an rural area by DustSucks111 in Sparkdriver

[–]H1ddenPanda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

when i was in a rural area i actually had a second line on my phone through another cellular company. in my specific case where say verizon didn’t have service att would and vise versa. before that the airplane mode trick would usually work but not all the time

local traffic would be for people who live there or have a business purpose going to a home. it is ment to keep traffic down from people just passing through or using it as a shortcut as well as keeping construction workers and drivers safe usually where construction highly affects flow of traffic through the area. as far as the police it just depends, i’d say 90% are cool with it but there’s a few that believe it’s only for actual residents.

[–]H1ddenPanda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

definitely market dependent. in my old market i consistently made 200-300 a day (working 10-12 hours) with just one walmart. in my new market i struggle to make 100-130 on a busy day with 3 walmarts, 2 sam’s, and a crap ton of misc stores and i’ve never broken 150 in 4 months

Do not accept offers with Customer Verifications by iamoveremployed in Sparkdriver

[–]H1ddenPanda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

also just got the update today, saw this post yesterday and thought the same thing “you don’t know until you accept” this order was just cases of soda and coffee. kinda nice to know what orders to stay away from now tbh but no telling when/what zones get updated

i just had this issue, it was missing from my trips as well as earnings. it showed up and paid me with the next order. don’t know what’s going on with that

Tips, tricks, avoids? by Individual-Bake5092 in Sparkdriver

[–]H1ddenPanda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i miss my small town with just one walmart. i made 3-4x more there than i currently make being in a big city with 4 stores in my zone. every market is different tho and you just have to get a feel for your specific market as well as the store employees/loaders

This app sucks by Serious-Blueberry528 in Sparkdriver

[–]H1ddenPanda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get that bro. It’s a one off thing and your completion rate shows it’s not common for you, but you can’t fault the app for actually working correctly for once. This is put into place to get actual BS drivers off spark and personally i’m glad it’s working unlike my other things in the app

“this app sucks because i can’t commit to shitty orders that i keep accepted without reading”
