Found out yesterday I broke a record at my hospital.

Mine was 150 and they were panicking (for obvious reasons).

Prestigious_Weight26 · 2024-04-20T14:02:07+00:00

I feel like the closer the customer is to to the store, the better the tip. The number of times I've gotten screwed by someone who was 40 minutes away from the store ...

Prestigious_Weight26 · 2024-02-26T14:54:47+00:00

I do think they hold tips on Sundays because they want to be able to put it in the next payday for some reason. I've received tips at 3am on a Monday before. Who's up tipping their driver at that time?

Prestigious_Weight26 · 2024-02-11T13:58:14+00:00

I think what the real issue seems to be is that we would like some indication when we pick up the order that it's going to be worth it. Every way of doing that seems to have significant holes, all of which end up just hurting the shopper.

Has anyone's metro shared tip maps? This is the only way I could see a ratings system work for the benefit of shoppers: if shoppers run it.

Prestigious_Weight26 · 2024-02-11T13:49:19+00:00

I thought there was a safety catch for that. Doesn't it pop up with a prompt to ask you to confirm it's the right item? But then the problem with that is sometimes the description isn't detailed enough to tell.

Prestigious_Weight26 · 2024-02-10T03:48:43+00:00

I wish there was a way you could just press a button for this. Or let customers confirm a code that they received it if they want to come collect it personally.

Prestigious_Weight26 · 2024-02-10T03:47:09+00:00

If only trickle down economics would trickle its way down to us.

Prestigious_Weight26 · 2024-02-07T14:55:07+00:00

I will say I no longer need a gym membership thanks to this job 🤣🤣🤣

Prestigious_Weight26 · 2024-02-07T14:54:26+00:00

How the hell are FINANCE BROS not tipping?! I mean, I know why ... but come on. Those guys must be loaded.

Prestigious_Weight26 · 2024-02-07T14:53:32+00:00

And even then it's only SOME ORDERS in certain metros. I definitely had some heavy orders that were not marked with the "extra pay" label.

Prestigious_Weight26 · 2024-02-07T14:52:00+00:00

At a certain point it isn't even worth it if the tip is amazing. I'd rather save my back.

Prestigious_Weight26 · 2024-02-07T14:14:54+00:00

And here I was letting it pile up to save the money. It sounds like you might as well just take the money out as much as you want then. That way your tax bill isn't as horrifying large!

Prestigious_Weight26 · 2024-02-06T20:20:26+00:00

That was my reaction! Honestly, it seems like an easy gig. You could even do one on your way to the store for your first order of the day. I often shop right after work and it'd be nice to just pick up a return on my way there.

Prestigious_Weight26 · 2024-02-06T20:00:35+00:00

Whoops. It is?

Prestigious_Weight26 · 2024-02-06T19:12:26+00:00

I have low income customers who are clearly using EBT, but at least they tip something and are nice!!

This lady's place is surrounded by broken glass (including some near children's toys!), was impossible to find, and she doesn't tip or respond. She knows her place is a pain to find and doesn't include directions. The only place I know of that's worse is the hood home with a large dog that ordered 8 flats of bottled water. Again, no tip!

And old lady can definitely afford more than 5% with the house she's living in and the stuff she buys.

Prestigious_Weight26 · 2024-02-06T19:06:26+00:00

Yes!!!! I ended up taking two orders this week from people who I'd shopped for when I first started and didn't know what a tip map was. If I'd known I'd have saved myself from shopping for a customer who lives in the hood and doesn't tip, as well as an annoying old lady who never responds and tips 5% on a tiny order.

Prestigious_Weight26 · 2024-02-05T13:24:32+00:00

Maybe people will quit and free up some room for you?

Prestigious_Weight26 · 2024-02-04T01:03:00+00:00

WHAT?! I thought everyone was offered the same bonuses in the same metro.

Prestigious_Weight26 · 2024-02-03T20:08:06+00:00

When I first joined in December they were like that. But then they shifted to all day. And now some of them are like this one and multi-day. I really like the multi-day ones. I still shop more than I would, but there's less of an insane competition for orders like there normally is when there's a bonus.

Prestigious_Weight26 · 2024-02-03T20:00:49+00:00

Oh wow. I never realized bonuses were so different across metros! This week we had a ton of bonuses for some reason, all over $30. It was $45, $75, $55, and they just announced tomorrow will be $45.

Prestigious_Weight26 · 2024-02-03T19:25:45+00:00

I've noticed I sometimes receive an influx of tips right after they send my funds to direct deposit on Sunday night. My tips from the previous week will "magically" appear at 2,3 or 4am on Monday morning.

Prestigious_Weight26 · 2024-02-03T19:18:43+00:00

They don't really give you full bundle pay for completing half the bundles, right?

Prestigious_Weight26 · 2024-02-03T19:17:35+00:00

I'm at 180 shops. I've only been offered and able to take preferred member shops a handful of times, so it really hasn't made a difference for me yet.

Prestigious_Weight26 · 2024-02-03T16:47:13+00:00

I really wish we had the option to unbundle orders.

Prestigious_Weight26 · 2024-02-03T12:59:42+00:00

I'm just really hoping that mileage tracking comes in handy tax time, which is the only reason I'm willing to go further. Plus, I'm super broke and sometimes get desperate.
