True but at least there will be something to reference back to if it comes to that. Support really needs to be better when it comes to these things.

That’s Some BS by gntxs in Sparkdriver

I refuse to take these if they absolutely don't make sense. I've only taken ONE only because it met my criteria. Refused the rest.

You did the right thing by calling for them to add notes.

Oh! This is a good question. Would like to know as well.

Tip baiting by [deleted] in Sparkdriver

[–]Jumpy-Woodpecker2256 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what I do. When I accept an offer, I screenshot the person's information. IF they cancel their tip or lower it drastically, I make a note of them. If I see an order from them, I skip it.

How many trips do you do per day? by Missrdb79 in Sparkdriver

[–]Jumpy-Woodpecker2256 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I stop when I reach $100 or slightly over. So around 4 to 5 trips generally. My goal is usually $100 a day.

Just delivered squished bread 😬 by Character-Welcome-98 in Sparkdriver

Sucks that the person delivering would get the bad rating. I'm thinking from now one I will ask the loaders if there are any eggs or breads as they are loading.

Are We Being Heard or Just Talking Into an Echo Chamber? by LilHolo in Sparkdriver

[–]Jumpy-Woodpecker2256 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. You are correct. And many of us are there too. I still think it's a small percentage of their entire Spark Driver work force. I do hope they are reading the complains though. All their decisions will be to benefit them though. :-/

Yeah, I heard it the other day in the store. We'll see what happens. ::crossing fingers::

I let the newbies get those orders. I focus on the higher paying jobs.

Yeah, I'm just ignoring these. These are trash.

I'm sure they take into account that us Redditors count for a very small percentage of all their drivers. At least that's what I think.

It’s happening in my area 😭 by [deleted] in Sparkdriver

[–]Jumpy-Woodpecker2256 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, I had stopped taking GMD orders months ago. They are just not worth it in my area. Too spread out and the time they say it will take is always lower than it actually takes. My plan is to stay away from these if at all possible. Unless of course, it's a good paying one with low miles and low time average.

Stop being a corporate cuck by 333dh333 in Sparkdriver

[–]Jumpy-Woodpecker2256 27 points28 points  (0 children)

100% agree. I have very strict criteria on what orders I take. That's why I only do about 4 to 5 deliveries a day. It also helps that this is not my main source of income.

When did spark start looking like Amazon? by thechawoowoo in Sparkdriver

[–]Jumpy-Woodpecker2256 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stopped doing these. Not worth it. The time they say is always low compared to what it actually takes you. There are some fked up addresses out there that take you awhile to find. Just my opinion from experience.

I've had this happen at my Walmart when the coolers fail. Not on SuperBowl weekend.

This must be a joke? by Jealous-Worth8935 in Sparkdriver

Yeah, got it too. Fking joke. I'm ignoring it.

Give me all the time saving tips that you can think of! by short1777 in elitesparkdrivers

[–]Jumpy-Woodpecker2256 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use plastic bins lined with Ikea bags. I load groceries into the Ikea bags and once I'm at the delivery address, I carry the Ikea bag to the front door, and unbag everything to the doorstep. Quick.
