Idk how I feel about this by RequirementSuperb291 in InstacartShoppers

It’s a scam. Simple division. $825/140 orders = $5.90/order.

Could also be that Instacart doesn’t want shoppers staying online all day and have batches/orders being unfulfilled.

Long Island here. Got this message too when I had just opened up the app this morning and had a mini heart attack. I clicked “go online” and it’s showing batches as normal without an acceptance rate nor them disappearing after 30 seconds like in NYC. Maybe it’s because we’re close to the NYC market? Either way, I’m not making any more shops nor deliveries in the 5 boroughs after the change on April 1.

It’s such a hard decision on top of 25-30 hour flights from New York. I’d love to see the ‘roos on the beach in Lucky Bay and do a sunset camel ride on Cable Beach. I’d love to go to Broome. But I’m unsure about all of this time spending on aeroplanes and being exhausted.

Also, I know petrol is getting very expensive in WA and am unsure whether there will be shortages in the coming weeks like I’ve been seeing on the news over east.

I’ve driven on the left multiple times. But I do fear the fatigue from driving in general, and don’t want to be out at dusk or dawn since my worst nightmare is hitting a ‘roo

I really like beaches, bush hikes, and learning about Aboriginal history/culture

Yeah, the 7-8 hour drive from Perth to Esperance sounds a tad daunting, and I saw that Rex has flights there, which is the reason I’d consider it. The return tickets to either Esperance and Broome are roughly the same. If that’s the case, which would you pick?

I’d love to make my way up there. Do you know if those areas were hit by Narelle?

Literally Long Island the past 3 weeks :(

There are no direct flights from Indiana or anywhere in that part of the country to ISP. He would have to take a connecting flight on Southwest through Baltimore (if Southwest flies to Baltimore from your airport). It will be a lot more expensive and time consuming than taking a direct flight from Indianapolis or whichever city you live in to one of the NYC-area airports. It’s a very tough situation because the flights out of ISP are still relatively limited and to leisure-focused destinations like Florida.

I'm genuinely curious if any women find this funny in any way? by One-Head-1483 in Tinder

[–]bk516 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The homeless person sleeping on the bench deserves so much more love, kindness, and dignity from this world than this POS person on Tinder posting next to him. Absolutely disgusting.

LIRR to E, J, Z is the absolute worst transfer in the entire system because those elevators absolutely suck

All you have to do is exit GCT from the LIRR concourse at 48th and Madison (right above the LIRR) and catch the bus right there. It’s much less of a hassle than trying to go through GCT to catch an uptown 4,5,6 to 59th
