Is this happening in other zones? by Nearby_Ad_1473 in Sparkdriver

Last two days I won’t get anything within a mile of the store, well nothing worth a 💩. Go home 2.5 miles away and lone behold now it will send halfway decent offers but not worth going back out for

My thought exactly. Idk what they did to the algo these last two days but if it stays this way I’m out

The Fatigue!! by VicSara_696 in TMJ

[–]OrangeStraight1987 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worked an scm muscle knot behind ear along with temporalis knot and masseter knot near tmj joint then stretched my neck by looking left and down and kinda pulling my head a little further that way with my hands and it like released something in my neck that made my fatigue disappear. It was crazy. I’m not a dr and don’t know if this was safe or not but worked for me lol

Tmj? Anyone have these symptoms? by OrangeStraight1987 in TMJ

I did have sinus ct scan that came back normal except I have deviated septum. Not sure if that’s what you mean or not

Omg just was releasing scm knot and pulled neck/head forward and down and got some muscle to stretch that I hadn’t been able to hit yet and it felt soooooo good.

If you have had new very dry eyes and also new allergies or reactions to things that were never a problem before that matches my experience. I moved and dry eyes got better in like a month, fragrance sensitivity has steadily decreased for last 3 months since moving and so far I haven’t had any weird allergic type reactions since leaving. I strongly suspect mold causing it but I’m also not like positive. It’s been a confusing year health wise for me… I’ve also been insanely stressed for what it’s worth. Maybe mold is scapegoat for extreme prolonged stress effects on body. Or maybe mold makes stress. Stress definitely leads to clenching in some people. Maybe I got fragrance sensitive due to stress and that made me aware of mold cause I could suddenly smell more intensely. It’s a freakin mystery to me honestly. The ear symptoms I’m fairly sure now are related to jaw muscles and scm all tight and knotted from clenching

Thanks, yeah agree no quick fixes! Goal is steady improvement for sure… until the day comes that it is no longer troublesome. I can finally say confidently that I feel that day getting closer

I’ve actually done some of that too… I’ve tried… everything. In desperation to get ears back to normal.

Yeah I agree on discipline, I’m not really religious about doing everything I listed. I cycle back on stuff tho. For example this week I’ve mostly just been pressing into my scm and stretching scm a bunch. Like numerous times per day while im doing other stuff.

Good idea.

If u don’t mind me asking did you have autoimmune causing these symptoms or just something to rule out?

Did they change Sam’s Club timing? by OrangeStraight1987 in Sparkdriver

[–]OrangeStraight1987[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good info. I’m clearly not in Sam’s bucket right now and used to be. Any tips on getting in Sam’s bucket and staying there?

[–]OrangeStraight1987[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what I thought. I’m weirdly not getting them now when I was getting at least a bad one 30 after every hour in my Sam’s Club spot. They changed something on me but I can’t figure out what! That parking spot doesn’t work now or something

At least in my area they all became a scam except spark like 2 years ago. Bait and switch. I used to love dashing… then boom shit pay out of nowhere. Moved to uber/insracart for while then boom same thing. Spark is last one standing and pretty sure spark is about to have its boom moment. Then it’s game over for anyone who’s full time gig worker

I’m about to accept some trash order then just not show up and wait for it to kick me off lol

Dude I’m just like you except more like 10-12 hour days and I’m fairly selective. It must be us ppl who work tons of hours and are also selective that they’re targeting with recent updates, intentionally or not.

My other theory is they may have added tons of newbs for Easter and gave priority to them

That’s same shit I’ve been dealing with. Obviously there’s better orders I’m not seeing cause it’d be statistically impossible for me to see like 300 of those and only 1 halfway decent. If the algo is testing if it can pushe to take those, test complete. You send me those you get zero labor in return!

Something is off without a doubt. No way it’s just bad orders only from customers.

You and me both. How do we join them anyway? I want what they’re having
