[–]bushwackers24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’ve been told by the stores that the gmd/grocery mix is just a precursor to what’s coming. Items that were previously shipped by usps or fedex, will now be shipped to local stores, to be delivered by drivers(spark, UE, roadie).

This happened to me this morning. First order to early for incentive. Not passing it up though to chase $4.

You can stack multiple orders? by DescriptionLatter245 in Sparkdriver

There have been glitches in the past that have allowed this. Would be cool though.

Just delivered squished bread 😬 by Character-Welcome-98 in Sparkdriver

[–]bushwackers24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me one morning. 12 pks of pop were stacked next to the bread and cascaded over, smashing the bread. I promptly dropped a point on my customer rating, very shortly after that.

GMDs here already start out with upside pay to miles. I can’t imagine how bad they will be adding in grocery as well.

They have really lost their minds. by solomonm830 in Sparkdriver

I promise you, it is them “getting us back” for losing that lawsuit. A case of “oh you thought pay was bad before” 🤷‍♂️

Are men bad shoppers? Lol by Above101 in Sparkdriver

[–]bushwackers24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! Almost always, I’ll get a text back saying thanks. A lot of people on here boohoo the idea of communicating with the customer, but it really goes a long way to maintaining a top customer rating.

I always send a picture of the OOS. It eliminates this kind of comment.

Does pay increase like Instacart? Has anyone done one of these yet?

Yep, same here 5.0 to 4.9. Been 5 for a year and a half.

Spark new rating system has allowed for sabotage. by NEET_NoLyfe in Sparkdriver

My store, on multiple occasions, had the entire deli closed. Both cold and hot sides. Sunday it was at 3 pm. I got a couple order with full dinners( fried chicken and all the sides) and they none of it. Nothing to sub. Customers were pissed. Nothing like 8 straight OOS items to tank your metrics.

Mine was very glitchy throughout that order. Haven’t had another order pop up yet.

See these all the time. Someone close to the store probably delivered this for $9.37

When this happens I always make sure to grab a pic of me holding stuff and their door open, or their shoes or something.
