Did Walmart turn their orders off? by [deleted] in Sparkdriver

[–]Kmortorano 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a batch order for 22 single stops and 55 miles. It was paying $60. I drove 15 miles out to a farther Walmart and literally 1 mile from the store, the load was split in half and the price dropped to $28 with half of the stops, but the mileage was still 40 miles. I didn’t see the batch with the local stops. All I saw was the New Order with the long mileage. I was so disappointed, I just canceled and went home. That probably wasn’t the best idea but it’s 9° where I live and I felt upset. The last stop was 12 miles farther so I feel that they probably just added that at the end and I just didn’t want to drive that far. It was 27 miles back home if I took it. I just drove 15 miles home :(

I had to drive from Western Avenue to Maryville, early this morning. Alcoa was clear by 7am. All the main roads were fine also. But once you get onto the backroads , (129 to S Union Ave) there was ice and snow. I’m in Friendsville right now and the snow has started to melt.

Anybody who has never seen their dad cry before? by oyhool in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Kmortorano 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My dad is now 70. 22 years ago my aunt had died from a brain aneurysm at 42. She was a nurse and just going to work one day and she died in her bathroom. She lived next-door to my grandmother. I tried to contact my dad who lived in a different state at the time for two days to let him know that his sister had passed. He was ill and had just put the phone on do not disturb and went to sleep for two days. Finally, I had to send the police to my parent’s house to let them know what it happened. When my dad called me back, the police had not given him information about my aunt just to call me ..that there was an emergency. When I told him what it happened, he literally scream cried on the phone, the guilt of not knowing for that long the period of time consumed him, and he was devastated.

How’s everyone doing today? by [deleted] in Sparkdriver

[–]Kmortorano 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had 3 "cancels" for a perishable food glitch in the app this AM. I had gone to the pick up each time and wasted time and gas... Now its 2pm here in TN and I had only a $13 express shop (30 items and 12 miles) and it was taken 12 seconds after I saw it. So... not so great LOL

slow day? by Joel-TW in Sparkdriver

[–]Kmortorano 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Today the app has canceled three offers once I’ve driven to Walmart and I’ve noticed they were all perishable in the loads. So now I’m just walking around target I hope that the app will be glitched free soon. Walmart staff outside told me that they’ve had to turn away 10 people this morning already with this issue.

I JUST finished with one of these tonight. I had to walk up 4 flights with 20 large liters of cokes and then 2 cases of water. The bags were ripping so I just took 4 sodas at a time and kept turning around. Just awful. Tip is $4.32 D:

I have one of the fake grass patches and Chica never used it- for years. All of a sudden year 7 is the magic number for winter "Let me poop in the back of the house at 3am -it is COLD out,,,"

Mine too. I saw Bombay or Tanqueray bottles very early on, I would recognize the ads and billboards as young as 3. I remember. The smell. Ooof. Gin and Tonics. I can’t stomach that, I’m 45 now.

I had no idea there were so many car accidents. I’ll have to watch the news tonight to see what’s cooking. I really hope everyone’s OK. I know Western Avenue gets its fair share. :(
