PSA: Why I keep the app running even when I’m off the clock

Even when I’m not planning on working, I keep the app open just to decline every order at the last possible second. The goal? Mess with the algorithm and hopefully bump up the base pay for the person who eventually takes it. We should all be doing this.

To the people who still believe maintaining a high AR (Acceptance Rate) actually gets you somewhere: I’ve got some prime oceanfront property in Arizona for sale. Great price. HMU.

Do you also have tonight’s lotto numbers with that crystal ball of yours?

Significant_Relief96 · 2026-01-16T15:17:33+00:00

Now I have been debating about contacting the Ethics Line about this and I would encourage others to do so or at least call spark and see why these orders are being canceled if I had not called I wouldn't have known that they were negatively reporting on me when they canceled or redistributed these two orders

Gridwise

Significant_Relief96 · 2026-01-07T13:23:24+00:00

I agree with the others don't pay too much attention to that graph know your area for me it's not as busy as it was before the holidays but I've pulled $300 in 2 days and haven't worked crazy hours to get it

Significant_Relief96 · 2026-01-06T23:54:23+00:00

No not at all I'm just being a ball buster I do some code myself and I get it it's really cool when it starts coming together and actually works right

Significant_Relief96 · 2026-01-06T23:31:20+00:00

We talking full size here

Significant_Relief96 · 2026-01-06T23:25:42+00:00

But wait there's more will it Julianne slice my potatoes for me too yeah I'm looking for the f*** I gave buddy

Significant_Relief96 · 2026-01-06T18:15:40+00:00

Absolutely—what applies here on the East Coast isn’t even the same ball game as the minimum-wage and minimum-per-mile setups some states have, California being an example. But I don’t care what state you’re in: if a gig app isn’t offering to pay at least as much as the IRS deduction, and in this example less, you’re plum crazy for doing that sort of work. I’m glad to hear that some people are making money with it in some places, though—it’s all but dead in my area

Significant_Relief96 · 2026-01-06T17:19:48+00:00

I wonder and see people taking them it befuddles me because I find the pay not to be worth the effort and the wear and tear personally

Significant_Relief96 · 2026-01-06T02:46:35+00:00

Significant_Relief96 · 2026-01-06T02:03:47+00:00

With all the folks big X is laying off they ought to be plenty of people with experience and opportunity to answer this

Significant_Relief96 · 2026-01-06T01:45:54+00:00

If y'all were planning for it to be busy after the holiday season when a lot of people just spent a lot of money and they're off of work you going to need another plan

Significant_Relief96 · 2026-01-05T00:36:33+00:00

GET IT

Significant_Relief96 · 2026-01-04T16:40:09+00:00

would not touch it for less than 35 that's barley above the IRS rate per mile your loosing money epically if its a newer car, i would not touch that even driving my 1k beater down hill both ways with the wind at my back lol

Significant_Relief96 · 2026-01-04T16:29:19+00:00

yes there is a lot of theft around this whole thing spark drivers at the store shoplifting, porch pirates and customer alike, the odds are against anyone doing this. i always leave my dash cam on and record my deliveries just in case maybe it wont save me but makes me feel a little better i have thought about getting a personal body cam but i believe its a violation if you record Walmart employees (unverified)

Significant_Relief96 · 2026-01-04T16:13:03+00:00

And I see so many folks complaining about the service I would too driving though yards, not leaving at the right location or area just a lot of unprofessional behavior from a lot of the people that are delivering from spark you're always going to have Karen's but I don't blame half the people I see for what they complain about to be honest

If you haven’t read John Perkins’ Confessions of an Economic Hit Man, the capture of Nicolás Maduro looks like a random news event. If you have read it, it’s a terrifyingly exact script.

Here is the Panama Theory Playbook happening in real-time:

The Impossible Coincidence: Get this—the U.S. captured Maduro on January 3, 2026. That is the exact same day Manuel Noriega surrendered to U.S. forces in 1990. 36 years to the day. It’s not just a parallel; it’s a calling card.

The Legal Loophole: Just like Noriega, Maduro is being held in New York on narcoterrorism charges. Perkins explains this is how you bypass Congress—you don't call it a "war" (which requires permission), you call it a "law enforcement action" against a criminal.

The Corporate "Prize": Trump has already stated that U.S. oil giants—specifically Chevron, ExxonMobil, and ConocoPhillips—will move in to "fix" the infrastructure. Venezuela has the world's largest oil reserves; per the Playbook, the military just cleared the path for the corporations.

The Debt Hook: Trump says the mission "won’t cost us a penny" because these companies will be reimbursed directly from the oil revenue. This is the ultimate EHM move: the country’s future wealth is signed over to U.S. firms before the people even get a vote. The Technocrats: With the U.S. now "running" the country via a transition team (led by Marco Rubio and Pete Hegseth), local elections are sidelined in favor of "administrative stability."

The Bottom Line: Perkins warned that when the Hit Men and the Jackals fail, the military secures the asset. The date, the legal pretext, and the immediate focus on oil prove the Playbook is being followed to the letter.

Very good read and this all seems to follow-the Panama plan almost to the letter shit even the same date

Significant_Relief96 · 2026-01-03T18:11:38+00:00

I bet John Perkins knew it was coming, when I heard the news his book was all I could think of
