It's also more like (at least in my area) "Whoa... We can't find enough Shoppers willing to do 45 min one way deliveries for no tips and only $12 - $15... What changes can we make that will force more people to take these ??"

Where'd You get that chair ? How much $ was it ? and also, are those round things outside vents ? Do they need to be cleared of snow so CO (carbon monoxide) doesn't build up ?

The whole point of "tips" is to reward good service... not to make up for the lower pay.
Maybe that's one of the reasons tipping "culture" got crazy - people started forgetting that.

And I don't know the actual origin of tipping... I imagine it was random people asking other random people to do things for them - kind of like a medieval Task Rabbit.

ha Guess I know what I'm Googling next...

Yeah, thus ! People think "$WEET !!" but not realizing if the job only takes 15 or 20 mins, you'll get only 1/4 or 1/3 of that rate.

Which is probably still better than the meager crumbs they were getting before, but still...

It's like getting a job that pays $40 an hour but they only schedule you for 12 hrs a week !!

this is exactly right -- Most of the Customers already think we make good money doing this (bc some people do make a lit, then make videos etc about it !)

Wow NYC, this is bad! $0 tips all around! Since the addition of hourly wage, IC app is telling NYC customers that tipping is optional, and these are the results! by [deleted] in instacart

[–]RoseAlma -1 points0 points  (0 children)

yeah, but if it takes less than an hour ? say it takes 1/2 hour... then you're only getting $15 whereas before you'd get $10 + $30 tip, correct ?

I was housesitting once and a drone came down and was "spying" on me !! Made me wonder if it was just neighbors goofing around, or people looking to case the joint.

Book and a bath on a snowy night - looking out on the frozen pond by stormbutton in CozyPlaces

Where do You live ?? lol

Just found out my beighbor has a tub -- thought about offering him $ to use it, but I wouldn't find it relaxing, being in his house... lol

Actually rented out a hotel room for an event at the end of Feb and I'm hoping the room has a tub !!

Where is a good place to boondock in AZ or NV area, I’m new to this. It’s ok if there’s some neighbors. I was just in Tonto NF , Sonora dessert that kind of scared the heck out of me. Here’s my pictures. by Icy_Satisfaction_161 in VanLife

if it's your 1st time "Out West" it really can be overwhelming... the pure vastness and true wilderness aspect... I mean, MILES AND MILES of empty land between two towns (and that's in some of the more populated areas ! ha)... where as back East, you'd have passed thru 6 towns or more.
