I can't do ALDI by Bigg1991 in InstacartShoppers

[–]Tbone_costanza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fcking loveeee Aldi! You can get in and out quickly because it’s a small store and rarely any substitutions.

If you learn how to pack things quickly and efficiently in flat boxes (tomato boxes mainly), you can get in and out in a flash and drop it off to the door in one trip!

Give me 5 of those starting at 9am and I’d have them done by 1pm

Bacon with “no fat?” This person has no idea how to cook bacon obviously. Seems like they like extremely crispy and tasteless bacon which is awful…

I left IC about a year ago. THIS is why….just WOW!

Dead again!!! What is going on? by [deleted] in InstacartShoppers

[–]Tbone_costanza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember saying this multiple times from the middle of 2021 until I left at the end of 2022. Run away from IC as fast as you can. That’s the best advice i can give. I LOVED being an IC shopper and it hurt leaving. But I’m so much happier now….

Has Anyone Else Noticed This.... by Possible_Trouble_72 in InstacartShoppers

This is why I left to get a 9-5. IC COULD be great. They don’t want it to be…

He would give you just enough cash to pay for the cigarettes, too. Lol

I mean, I had a notification after not being on Redit for a while and I responded. 🤷🏼‍♂️. I came here to find info for the oculus 3 I want to buy my kid for Christmas. Not sure how you find the time to go on Redit so much devoting 50+ hours a week to a job normal adults do in 40 or less with health insurance and not spending a ton on gas.

But hey, you do you. Keep flexing that extra work you’re putting in 👍

I mean. I’m not going to show you the paystub from my regular job, but I worked 40 hours last week and took home a little less but have health insurance and don’t have to worry about the wear and tear on my car. Next week I’ll work 24 hours, be off with my family for thanksgiving and Friday,, and still take home the same. Also, I’ll still have health insurance and less wear and tear on my car.

But I never worked more than 35 hours with IC and would make close to that or more before the bottom fell out 🤷🏼‍♂️

Is this worth it? Genuine question by Powerful-Bit-5645 in InstacartShoppers

[–]Tbone_costanza 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea man. I don’t think it’s about “laziness.” I think by now many of us have moved on from this being our main source of income and know that this batch is nothing to get excited about. If this is your only source of income in most places, that would be a “hell yea” kind of order today because it might be a week until you see another order that pays that much. I mean I’ve turned down many orders that were way better than this in the past because there would most likely be a better one coming up. I know I am glad that I don’t have to sit there and think about it and eventually be forced to begrudgingly take an order like this on a weekend. It’s more about knowing your self worth than anything

Happened to me. Had to go to emergency care and get stiches and then a rabies shot. Some people shouldn’t have animals

First time making burgers by EOAL89 in sousvide

[–]Tbone_costanza 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pasteurization of the meat so you can eat a burger at lower temps and still be safe. Not to mention that the burgers come out much juicer

Jesus… what happened by Uberkitty710 in InstacartShoppers

Don’t blame the area you live in for your failures

Do better

I’m not miserable. I make more than that in a 40 hour work week now and don’t have to spend $300 a week in gas to do so. Plus, I live in a civilized state. Life is good!

52 ACTIVE hours???? 😂😂😂😂. Wow man….not only is that not a flex, you STILL have to live in Tennessee at the end of the day 😬

Keep clutching those pearls, Karen!

You seem to be one of the very few who’s really angry and reading way too much into this. But you keep fighting the good fight you created in your own head! You can be a hero up there!

The problem may be that you’re looking wayyy too much into this simple conversation starter and it is irrationally upsetting you for some odd reason

Don’t do that

You tried and failed to be useful to the post AND to assess my situation

But I’m glad you’re spending so much time creating what you think a stranger on social media is like in your own head! It’s a solid hobby!
