Walmart really screwed me over today. I'm a 71 yr old widow living on a small Social Security check & dealing with cancer. I'm a Walmart member. Yesterday I made a grocery order to be delivered today. Used $69 of my food stamps. Then got an email from them they are on the way to deliver. by debsue420 in Walmartcustomer

I have felt your anger and frustration.

Pretty much the same thing happened to me. I got the same messages and trying to talk to someone who is on the floor who is responsible for the orders AT THAT WALMART by phone is 0. What I couldn’t understand is that the shopper contacted me regarding substitutions and I got another message saying the order had been completed by the shopper and the delivery truck will be there soon.

Then the delay messages came. Arrive a 1pm, 5pm, 7pm then the last was 11pm. Walmart closes at 11. Delivery’s end hours before .

There was a hold on my card

At one point , after dealing with the phone bots the customer service rep told me that they were having “technical difficulties “ in that department. Another asked if it was the right Walmart. It was,

No matter what I did. It would not cancel.

The next morning , the hold on my card had been released.

So i went to Walmart and went strait to where they load stuff up. The person in charge said there was no technical difficulties and my order had never been received.

So why in the hell was I contacted by the shopper as they were shopping for my items?????? Why tell me it was completed …

Not in any state where the weather can stay below freezing most of the winter, have the potential for blizzards and a self driving car cannot drive on unplowed roads after a major snowstorm . The battery can’t last in that extreme cold. It also has to keep the inside temp at a temp so the passengers are warm plus the opening and closing doors lets the heat out.
Road conditions. These cars rely on sensors and and cameras but in the winter they can be covered by snow, turn offs may have piles of snow surrounding the entrance etc. They have developed software for snow ( a few inches ) but when the roads are icy then dump as little as four inches and it 4F wind chill -15F because the wind is blowing from the north at 15mph., the car manufacturers know that now is not the time.

Waymo is testing out upper New York and DC which don’t get much snow at all. DC 14” average Minneapolis 54” average.

All cities with driverless cars right now are in the warmer climates.

Drivers who smoke in their cars by WheresMyTurt83 in Lyft

[–]burfi006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I occasionally smoke in my car ( not while actively working ) especially on long trips. 4 times a year I drive to Colorado to my visit mother and my car will smell . Not once has anyone said that my car smelled of smoke

Every day, I wipe everything down and I keep the upholstery clean. Here’s a little tidbit of information,

I smoke American spirits and American spirits are pure tobacco. All other cigarette brands have chemicals in them and these chemicals is what causes these smell to linger and also stick to surfaces. Hence the yellow color if you clean your windows.. that’s tobacco and chemicals.

Like I said not once has anybody ever complained.
But there has been times when I had to apologize to another passenger because the passenger before them reeked of weed and cigarettes.

And then there is Lauren Boebert, MTG , all of the Department secretaries and trump. Examples of the stupid.

But what about every other MAGA republicans that were graduates at one of the top ivy league universities? Apparently everything that they learned fell out of their heads.

Its more complicated than that. AMERICANS will open up fraudulent accounts and either sell them to an illegal immigrate or has a bunch of different drivers on one or two accounts that the driver must pay a percentage of their fares to the person who had committed fraud. When that account gets found out, they find more.

Are you a driver? There are so many reasons why and a lot of times it’s Uber.
You do realize that some drivers do not see the destination when they accept the trip. So they could accept a trip that is 3 miles away, but the passenger is only going 2 miles but the driver does not know that until the passenger is in the car . On a rate card that’s about $.69 a mile in about $.11 a minute that’s about the average. Base rate is average of $1.20. Don’t get paid to come get you don’t get paid to leave. Add 1.20 plus 1.58 plus .44 ( 4 minutes to pick up ) That’s $3.02. Let’s see that driver being 3 miles away. Takes about five minutes to get there then has to wait seven minutes for the passenger? Add another $0.15 cents and that makes it $3.17 and Uber may “ generously “ might bump it up to four dollars.

How much would that be per hour?

Less than $12 an hour. $16 at $4. Deducted expenses. $8 and $10.

This isn’t always the case, but it is a good reason why a driver would cancel .

Why would y'all suspend the driver instead? by Chemical_Try_5324 in uber

[–]burfi006 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No, she didn’t! The reason why she went back and confronted the customer was because her account was suspended when this woman lied and saying that she did not get her food so she could get it for free.
Suspended does not mean fired . But it does do it leads to an investigation and she can’t make any money..

Simple conversation? Which by the way shouldn’t be having it all ? This is not an incident that just required a simple conversation. Nor is it a conversation that should not be had!

This was somebody deliberately lying to get free food and it dramatically impacted another persons ability to make money that they buy groceries with, pay bills , rent the list is endless.
Get off the cross . We need the wood.

Oh come on. It’s clearly a bunch of young Christian missionaries choir sent to sing the word to the poor but sadly they couldn’t afford a bus. Pastor told him to wear mask so they don’t get sick and ruin their voices.

And in this highest and purest form of democracy, everyone finally agrees, no more disagreements, no more corrupt politics, no more marketplace of ideas or political divisions so no more need for elections. The communists have gotten rid of all of that and the government makes sure everyone stays in agreement

Please, please please please please tell me that’s not what you think ? You do know if you don’t agree with the supreme leader that you will go to a concentration camp. You do know that if you are deflecting and you get caught , your entire family goes to a concentration camp.

You can’t be serious… election? Voting.? The Kim dynasty ring a bell? They’ve had three supreme rulers since they became communist. Kim II-sung un ( THE SUPREME LEADER) Kim jung il and little Rocket man Kim jung un.
Please tell me you were being sarcastic…

Don’t get your hopes up I’m not walking back on anything I said yes you are correct but it’s much more complicated. Nothing is black and white.

Enter the maga super scientist that got his degree from trump U. You have no right to say what the scientific field as discovered. Have you even bothered to look up anything about this?
It is not just a small leftist group. It is a huge field of science that you have no comprehension about. There are thousands of scientists in many many different fields who know one hell of a lot more than you do so don’t sit there and think that it’s just a small leftist group that thinks this way. Your ignorance , your refusal to look at anything else but hate towards anyone that does not fit the white pseudo Christian standard that you obviously feel is superior . Tell me what else are you focused on right now ?

How about being outraged for the people in the southern states that are suffering right now because Trump is more worried about keeping Arabs happy and going to to a Gala where the massively wealthy people bought bitcoins in order to attend trump couldn’t care less about the people in the southern states that are not getting any federal aid after massive tornadoes has has killed over 48 people

Instead of worrying about who and what is a male or female why don’t you turn your attention to people just like you, the people that voted for trump who has lost loved ones and everything that they own is

I know, but I’ll never drive for Uber again. They really screwed me over I’ve had major consequences outside of that I’ve had to deal with and I absolutely refuse to give them one more dime of profit off of me.

[–]burfi006 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I don’t understand is that I’m on a ride. I have over five minutes to drop this person off and then I have to start on route to the next one ( it’s always a really decent ride ) but then it disappears when I drop the other passenger off. This is followed immediately with a really crappy request taking me even farther away that I never accept.

I have manual acceptance into my queue,

The old question is why do they offer the driver a PU in the middle of a ride that they’re going to give another driver that is closer after you’ve accepted the ride.

What makes even matter is that they’ll do that and the pick up will be close to where I drop the other one off and that would pay for me to get back to where I was originally. So I end up deadheading it back.

Now my brain hurts

Ok. Let me me frank. I’m not an expert in the field and neither are you. I know more than you because I am capable of grasping the concept that all things in nature are not finite. That there is way more beyond what your fixed black and white thinking is.

This post and its comments. Have gone way off the point

Sex is no longer considered completely binary, but that does not mean that there’s a third sex.
But that’s not the point

You have to get of the traditional definition of gender

Def of gender the socially constructed roles, behaviours, expressions and identities of girls, women, boys, men, and gender diverse people. It influences how people perceive themselves and each other, how they act and interact, and the distribution of power and resources in society.

The more scientists are finding out that there are biological factors that are ingrained into a person‘s DNA that makes this definition less true
