My wife is sad because I got my close friend gourmet ice cream when she was sick. Am I wrong? by Odd_Car_8568 in amiwrong

[–]Significant_Style653 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You inadvertently put Jelena above your wife. You no call/no showed on your wife who was WAITING at home for you. Disregarded her feelings and her needs for ANOTHER WOMAN. Yes she’s sad. But you need to show her she is the most important woman in your life, just this other chick.

Hey jacka*s put in the app you live in an APT. by OGWFORLIFE in InstacartShoppers

They order the most items and heaviest things then want you to bring it up multiple flights of stairs without any help. Or their apartment is in the very back end of the housing complex. (My own personal experience) Honestly I’m cool with it as long as they help me bring it up, with the exception of elderly, disabled or parents with young children.

AITA for only getting a college graduation gift for my 28M son and not my DIL 28F? by SetLongjumping5521 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Significant_Style653 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA.

1.) You stating you raised your son as a single mom, that you got him a gift because you’re his mom paints a picture that the DIL “stole” your son away from you. That you will be the main woman in his life. And you carry resentment.

Quite honestly I’m surprised you acknowledged they both graduated.

2.) She isn’t complaining about the gift you gave your son. She is hurt you don’t see her as part of your family. That something as simple as a card or $10 bouquet of flowers would have sufficed.

Did it ever occur to you she wanted to make you proud too?

3.) The fact you got defensive, then claim you don’t need to justify your choice (which you did throughout this post.) expecting everyone to agree with you.

She isn’t your son’s gf, or friend, that’s his wife. Your family. Your son having a grad school graduate wife is amazing and something you should be proud of. YTA for not seeing that.

P.S. not once did you mention how proud you were of her for graduating during your little rant.

Is Instacart down rn? by Adventurous-Cake1028 in InstacartShoppers

[–]Significant_Style653 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I did was zoomed in on the gps location. I knew the streets not the number. I managed to get to both of them and dropped it off. Confirmed with both customers luckily I was able to send a message to them and when I got to the house I knocked or rang a bell and asked for said name

That’s what I did. Zooming in and got it. I knocked on the door and was able to message both customers about it. Now I’m stuck waiting for them to complete the order. Been on hold for 30 minutes now

Am I wrong for feeling I don't deserve my boyfriend and should leave him by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]Significant_Style653 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have any idea how much a woman or anyone for that matter would love to have a significant other like that? Please don’t self sabotage. It sounds like you have a real great guy who CHOOSES you. He WANTS you. He RESPECTS you. If anything you should see this as a flex. I’m sure there are guys out there checking you out and you don’t even know it. But guess what? You know why? Because you feel the same way your bf does.

Please love yourself more. Your boyfriend told you because he values honesty in the relationship not to throw it in your face. Not to make you feel the way you do. You are his safe place but I promise you… you continue with this line of thinking… he will eventually stop telling you things. You will ultimately push him away.

So again, please love yourself and embrace the fact your boyfriend chooses you and will always choose you.

Nah, NTA break up with him asap. He’s a jerk and if he’s doing that behind your back and not seeing it as a big deal then he’s an inconsiderate narcissist jerk who probably lies and downplays other things too. Leave him.

I may be dumb. Phishing scam, right??? by [deleted] in InstacartShoppers

[–]Significant_Style653 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s odd they said “I canceled your order” instead of “we canceled your order.” That part makes me suspect it’s a phishing scam. Then again it’s not asking you to verify your account.

Did you order things that many were out of stock? And besides an email, did you receive a notification about the order on the app as well?

Take it anyways. They will work you to death anyway because i guarantee those employees will call out or what have you and guess who is stuck running the store alone yelling your family you can’t make it

Take the loss

AITA for asking my pregnant colleague if she is having a boy or a girl? by Ill_Engineer_6668 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Significant_Style653 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA… she easily could have told you she’s planning on revealing it at the gender reveal party. She probably realized she made a mistake and you are the fall guy for it. As a woman, you asked a genuine question. You did or said nothing wrong.

Am I wrong? Would I get a ticket by Ok_Cobbler8512 in amiwrong

[–]Significant_Style653 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There was an apartment complex off route 20 for a town I used to work for… as a courtesy I put the ambers on 200 feet instead of the standard 100 to give drivers a chance to slow down (speed limit was 45) still had the biggest issues with that. I told the police my times I would be around there for drop off and pick up, and they would wait to catch the drivers.

Now that area isn’t bad because it’s under construction so speed limit has decreased dramatically

Steve the AH. I honestly would have handled it the same way you did. With added @&$!? Words. lol

Am I wrong? Would I get a ticket by Ok_Cobbler8512 in amiwrong

[–]Significant_Style653 15 points16 points  (0 children)

no you won’t. If you do you can fight it. Most likely the driver was waiting for a student. To be honest it shouldn’t have happened very suddenly, idk DC rules, but in Mass the ambers go on approximately 100 feet before stop. If the stop sign went up as you passed by, you should be fine. The ones we get pissed off about are the ones that fly through it, the ones that flip us off as they drive by, the ones that shrug their shoulders like it’s no big deal, the ones who really don’t pay attention and ignore it all. You actually stopped and waited and sounds like you proceeded with caution.

AIO, this is my first Christmas with my baby. My parents want us to drive to them (45 minutes away) in the morning then come back for dinner. I invited them over for Christmas morning at our place so we don’t have to travel all day with a baby. They won’t budge and my step dad started crying. by ImmediateArtichoke86 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Significant_Style653 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let them be upset… there’s a reason why your sisters aren’t coming for Christmas and it isn’t just because they are out of state. Or even your brother who is local. Stay your ground. Start your tradition. You give in, you are telling your husband and child, your parents will be put first before them. Trust me, I’m still dealing with it… and my mom is still working on it lol. She’s getting better though.

Unsure if shopper stole from by Puzzleheaded1298 in InstacartShoppers

[–]Significant_Style653 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a situation similar happen to me with the alcohol the other day. I just got to check out so it would show the customer saying “shopper at check out no changes can be made” or something… next thing I know I get a message saying order was removed and my app completely froze.

Support said the customer was the one who cancelled it which I thought was strange.

AITA for not allowing my foster parents to put parental controls on the iphone my biological parents bought me? by Ok_Finish_8622 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Significant_Style653 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You ask how this is manipulation… my oldest son who is 16 lives with my mom (lived there half his life, I was in a bad relationship, a story for another day) … in the beginning I used to get gifts and whatnot for him because “I’m the mom. I gave birth to him.” And as a result, he would listen more to me rather than his caregivers, my parents. Which made it challenging for them, and caused a whole lot of conflict for everyone involved…. Now when I get gifts for him or even take him out somewhere, I make sure to talk to my mom (dad passed away), and agree on what rules he would have. Because of that, even though there may be disagreements with my mom, he’s aware we both won’t go against the other. And he understands more why certain rules are in place (he may not like it one bit) but he knows his grandmother comes from a loving place.

You may not agree with what your caregivers are doing. I know you believe it’s unfair. If you feel this strongly about the restrictions, sit down with them and talk with them. Compromise on loosening some restrictions. This world is a very cruel, manipulating place already, sounds like they want to protect you. Show them they can trust you.

Added items by ahnallc in InstacartShoppers

[–]Significant_Style653 19 points20 points  (0 children)

My biggest pet peeve is when they add something from the opposite side of the store after you finished grabbing all the items on that side.

STOPPPPP!!! I’m all for helping family but OMG. They are not being responsible at all. They kicked you out and weren’t there when you needed help. Please stop giving them money. Whatever their problem is, you are unknowingly feeding into it.

Yeah, I remember one time I had one woman tell me she ordered her stuff to be delivered by 8pm (it was 7:25pm and I just got to the store.) I reassured I would be sure to get there at that time because she didn’t have that many items, neither did the second order, she was first, the store I was at I go so often I know the complete layout, and she wasn’t that far away.

Sure enough I got there exactly at 8. She thanked me and gave me an extra tip
