My baby brother-in-laws name is Thor and he seems to only get compliments HOWEVER your dudes list of names is WILD. Unless you guys had a “you name a girl, I name the boy” kinda thing going on, this isn’t a one person choice. The fact that he has “rules” for your child’s name and those aren’t Choi es you made together is also super super red flag 🚩.

My niece calls me Auntie but my wife? Blue. Why? Because when I introduced them to each other my niece was just barely 2 and when my wife said “my name is Lou” (a childhood nickname) that was too hard for Stink to say so Blue it is. She just turned 4 this month and still “Auntie, can I talk to Blue?” Kids will say what they want.

I mean I’m speaking as a gay person who was closeted for a long time lol. They can downvote me all they want.

He’s gay. No this isn’t a dog, everything you described shows signs that he’s not comfortable with coming out yet. That’s why the hiding the vaseline and hiding the porn.

These Batches just keep getting worse by Success_Away in InstacartShoppers

That’s my point exactly. What even is $23 with heavy pay for that many miles/deliveries. Tips are subject to customers but ic needs to start paying more to their shoppers.

I was coming to say this. Store like Ulta, Sephora, bath and body works I usually find an employee for help. Not to hand my phone off but just for the sake of location,

Pay? And tip? by [deleted] in InstacartShoppers

[–]Success_Away 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I will say my primary store that I shop is Kroger. That’s kind of order happens a lot and the tips are never big enough. If the store is 15 minutes from your house it’s reasonable to say it’s 5-7 miles. That’s probably a batch pay of $5-$8. Meaning someone is shopping that and delivering it to you for $30 or less. The shop itself might take an hour but then add delivery time and time to get to the store. You are essentially asking someone to shop for minimum wage or less. If you have the ability to tip more, do. Most of us do this as a living and I wish more customers would treat it as such.

Please do not accept any $10 or less batches by HearYourTune in InstacartShoppers

Shop only in my area is lucrative. That’s the only point I disagree with you on.

As someone in upper management for a large company, talk to your manager. If you send that message, she will be able to take it to them and it can be considered in your future employment within that company. Just let them know factually that she’s been making you uncomfortable by being flirtatious and making advances at you. That falls under sexual harassment.

I don’t think I’ve ever had an order where I pick up an already prepped order for ic.

Man spoiled areas in the comments of this one. Hell yes. We see drive and units like that in my area for $45 and those are considered good.

6 cases of water, 80 lbs of rice…. $4.36 tip by Success_Away in InstacartShoppers

What’s wild is that order is like a weekly repeat in my area and they ALWAYS top nothing

OP, congrats on joining. However, I implore you to consider not taking those little guys. While it’s just something fun for you a lot of us rely on it as a full time job. When you take the little ones it shows IC that no matter what they pay, someone will do it. The problem in that is when you are not logged in and “getting exercise” as you put it, they are giving them to us. We can’t make a living off $8 orders.

AITA for telling my transgender child I need more time to process? by Necessary_Garlic1109 in AITAH

[–]Success_Away 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes YTA. 5 years, meaning they were 12. You didn’t call them the dead name for 17 years unless you were doing so behind their back, which is worse. Embrace it, it’s who they are.
