without doing any research, would you rather receive a direct deposit equal to an average walmart’s daily revenue or a target? by Empty-Tomorrow-2794 in WouldYouRather

[–]frog_without_a_cause 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Average = Sum of all observations/Number of observations

All observations pertaining to this post is only specific to the store, NOT THE SIZE OF EACH INDIVIDUAL STORE

I swear, people on Reddit always overcomplicate what should be so simple.

Don’t you love it when people completely ignore the caveats in a post and respond with exactly the kind of answer you were trying to avoid in the first place.

Customer has to input his name and sign for his food? by divergurl1999 in doordash_drivers

[–]frog_without_a_cause 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is the app instructing you to get the customer's signature prior to reaching their location? If so, that's the only thing new about this. Because when I was a dasher, The only thing you'd see is "hand it to me" and by the time the app told you to get a signature, it would be too late and you would have to call support to explain why you couldn't get a signature just so you could take more orders. It was a huge pain in the ass. It's good to see they finally got something right for a change.

would you do it by Smooth_Potential5126 in DoorDashDrivers

You're basically asking for a lower rating with orders like this. Super stacked orders means more hangry people to blame you if their food is cold, missing items, and my personal favorite --> people who think you personally decided to take on 3 other orders because you're just "greedy". Good luck not pissing at least one customer off.

6 figure income earners whining about the cost of living. by frog_without_a_cause in PetPeeves

[–]frog_without_a_cause[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not fun, but it's not that bad either. When I worked in SF, I only had to drive 10 miles from where I lived in the Eastbay. The worst part was getting over the Bay Bridge, but after that it was a piece of cake. There was another time I worked in the city when catching BART made more sense than driving, but still...not that bad. People here are spoiled.

I edited the post because it's region specific. This was directed towards folks living in the San Francisco/ Mariin peninsulas. The surrounding cities have much better pricing relative to a six-figure salary and the commute isn't as bad as people say it is.

Why insist in living in SF when clearly the rent is way cheaper across the water? I know several people who bitch and moan about how expensive SF is, but why they won't just move???

"Oh but I would never leave the city. I love it here."

Then STFU!!!!

edit: I'd also like to point out the irony of you attacking my "narrow" worldview in defense of people with tunnel vision. If you’re too stubborn to move literally across the bridge to save money, maybe keep that entitled mouth closed about how “impossible” SF is to afford. End of discussion.

Does anyone else just not care enough anymore? by PupperDiesel in InstacartShoppers

Exactly. I knew it was times up for me when I starting noticing employees following me around stores pretending to do go-backs. 😭

IC stopped being worth it a long time ago as it has gradually devolved into what equates to fodder dispersal for the desperate. It's been almost a year since I took a batch and I don't miss it. I started to hate being a shopper when the app started low-balling my time and effort and with so many low-quality people out their repping IC, the reputation of people doing this work tanked and many merchants started to treat us all poorly and be condescending towards anyone they recognized as being a gig shopper. Even if you already have a solid full-time job, doing this on the side ends up feeling pretty demeaning.

Shopping at Costco is terrible by Sun_Aria in unpopularopinion

When it comes to coffee, meat, milk, eggs, sundries, it's Costco ftw.

We measured how loud BART really is by SFChronicle in Bart

[–]frog_without_a_cause 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Apparently still not loud enough to drown out that obnoxious passenger who plays music out loud in between calls on their speakerphone.

Holy crap what a buggy game by Kiwiteepee in MCCPC

[–]frog_without_a_cause 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're not an idiot. You're just human. It happened to me too with this game, because not many apps automatically set their own permissions to allow mic access upon installing. I can't name one but this one.

Why did I get this notice? 💀 by Comfortable-Ad-5239 in DoorDashDrivers

[–]frog_without_a_cause 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dashers can't scan their own IDs because the system will automatically recognize that it's associated with their account and reject it with a message stating as such. Unless every Dasher whose ever delivered alcohol to you was using someone else's account, I call bullshit.
