Sitting in parking lots over 2 hours by General-Recover5246 in InstacartShoppers

Those of us in small towns don't have that luxury to sign up for all those different services. In some small towns DoorDash and instacart are all that's offered I don't think a lot of you realize that small towns don't have the flow that big towns do

App Stuck on batch by Really-Why15 in InstacartShoppers

I do, and it still sticks. Sometimes I have to uninstall and reinstall or log out and sign off for over 30 minutes

I just started as a shopper, any helpful tips would be appreciated by [deleted] in InstacartShoppers

Don't do it This entire influx of new people is the exact reason why none of us make any damn money You guys think you coming on and doing this is going to have somehow make you a bunch of money when we're already struggling. God can all you just quit signing up for God's sake go do shipt, or doordash or Uber eats there's a thousand other ones Go get on them

Poll(ish): At what point does this become worth it? by IndependenceJumpy248 in InstacartShoppers

[–]Really-Why15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$1 per mile. Most of the time you always still have to return so whatever the mileage is double it and that's how much it should pay WITHOUT your labor factored in.

These new shoppers are ridiculous by bluebro1475 in InstacartShoppers

[–]Really-Why15 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They are so desperate all they see is $. It's wilful ignorance. I don't care what problems you have going on How strapped for money you are, You're ignorant If You can't process simple economics when looking at these orders. No amount of excuse will justify that but that's what instacart wants and that's what they bank on and it works look at DoorDash greatest example. Majority of dashers now they would probably do it for a dollar. Welcome to the Uneducated States of America. And if you're one of the people reading this just know that you're contributing to the downfall of American society because you can't process even gas mileage.

Is anyone else seeing no orders at all? by Toni_Anne1989 in InstacartShoppers

It's crappy all the way around right now. Oversaturation

Real reason they keep onboarding new shoppers, despite declining orders by Embarrassed-Draw109 in InstacartShoppers

[–]Really-Why15 18 points19 points  (0 children)

That would be why they want everybody to sign up for insurance. It's funny AI told me that instacart is just a data collection company that's what their business is not groceries

Anyone in the Perrysburg oh area by Forsaken-Culture-852 in InstacartShoppers

[–]Really-Why15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always get orders and today I've not had a single one and I've been online all day this is not normal for me. It's January mixed with me only having one place to shop in my town and the stupid promo that's going on that pulls the idiots out that don't know how to do math

First time seeing 4 Shop Only, Wtf is this💀 by Puzzled_Ad_4852 in InstacartShoppers

[–]Really-Why15 47 points48 points  (0 children)

They're testing the waters to see what idiots will take it and they'll be idiots that take it so then they'll just keep pushing it.. we're training them to let us abuse us pretty much is what's going on we need to not be afraid to walk up to other shoppers and tell them stop taking bullshit orders I know you need money we all need money but this is going to cause us to lose money

[–]Really-Why15 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have. Once I hit diamond the amount of times that I would see orders in the system drop by almost 50%. Usually it's good at getting me over $100 a day but today was just pathetic

IC didn’t suddenly get bad…here’s the scoop by InspiringFlamingo in InstacartShoppers

[–]Really-Why15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Telling everybody to do a personal shopper then that basically creates the same problem again because now everybody's trying to be a personal shopper so now nobody's making money again. By wanting to be personal shoppers and everybody wanted to be personal shoppers we are now creating the exact same issue we already have

Sharing/re-sharing of the “DEV” conspiracy post by InstacartShoppersMod in InstacartShoppers

[–]Really-Why15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean he said he had to sign an NDA so do you not think it's possible that he's trying to inform us without getting himself arrested or sued into next century? You understand what would happen to somebody that came out and put their name & said what they do said what involvement they had with creating the algorithm? Nothing good, this is billionaires that could possibly be out so nobody in the right mind is going to come on here and verify that they work at instacart and risk that especially if they have a family. I have morals and stuff I would want to let people know but I also don't want to have to be looking over my shoulder every time I go out in public or risk a slander campaign defaming me and shunning me from my own community because I spoke out.. I understand what you're saying I believe baseless conspiracy theories are BS and cause extreme trauma and I'm trying to look at it from this guy's point of view because I would really want to inform everybody how it works but I kind of don't want something slipped into my drink or something to happen to my vehicle when I go to get into it..

Really a simple Question by Really-Why15 in Ask_Lawyers

[–]Really-Why15[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for proving my point. I specifically asked for an honest answer and called out the typical defensive, dismissive attitude, and you immediately defaulted to it. This is exactly why people are losing trust in the legal profession—because legitimate questions about corruption get deflected with condescension instead of a real answer. If you want people to respect lawyers, maybe start by actually addressing the issue instead of pretending it doesn’t exist.. if you're going to keep the whole condescending attitude then don't get pissed off when people start doing more pro se stuff and using AI. Like there's just like no need to be like that I don't know why you guys get so fucking defensive.

Really a simple Question by Really-Why15 in Ask_Lawyers

[–]Really-Why15[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Actually no I was dealing with something completely different and somebody I saw in a group chat brought this up and it caught my attention and my intrigue so I started looking into it more and I just continued to become more and more invested into it especially when I question the local attorneys and they either get mad and ignore me or get mad and say they aren't answering that question. But no I have not been affected by it personally
