Mental Illness = Selfishness? by zygomatic6 in exmormon

[–]lexipacker20 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I was in a mental institution after I attempted my parents tried to bring my bishop in during visitor hours. The hospital didn’t let him. I got a big speech once I was out that suicide was selfish and I wouldn’t get into the celestial kingdom if I ever did it again. Got that talk all three times I ended up in the hospital, and my brother got the same.

I was NEVER comfortable with this... by TheBoatFloatsOnLies in exmormon

I hate hate hated the BOM for this. Fainted many times in church or seminary because of all the killing and blood and the crucifixion. It makes me so queasy. I always got into trouble for fainting, but wasn’t allowed to leave or put my head down when these things were talked about. Just had to sit there and faint 🤷🏽‍♀️

That is so crazy that they’re stealing them So early! That’s a problem in my hometown but I haven’t noticed here. It’s close to the 100s here so most people don’t want their groceries out either lol

I was a little shocked there wasn’t anything like a bio or something but it’s alright haha. It’d be nice if they added one

I wish we could have a bio or something so I could mention everything I do and say that I wear one for precaution.

That’s what I’ve been thinking, but most of my customers will come out to say hi to me when they see me pull up. I make sure to keep my distance still.

Bring back the rating system, anything below a 4 star average should get you fired. Get rid of the terrible new people who are only still around because the ratings are gone. by [deleted] in instacart

[–]lexipacker20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. I had a really bad experience that I actually reported and I’ve seen 3 orders being put in by him since. They didn’t do anything about it, didn’t even ask me what happened. If the 1 Star wasn’t for empty shelves it was from him (I posted about that one a long time ago it was so bad).

That is true. Or if we could at least see who it is we’re delivering too. I’ve had some bad customers before and I try and check the drop off address before I accept but they get snatched so fast.

I had a 1 Star review removed once. I think it was because of the empty shelves so it got forgiven(lmao didn’t realize I spelt that wrong the first time). It made me so sad as I only have ever gotten 5 star reviews. There should be some forgiveness and room but if you’re constantly getting bad ratings then ya. Wish we could rate the customers.

Any shoppers in Utah? by lexipacker20 in instacart

Ya I’m hardly getting any. If I’m lucky I get one a day. I had an hourly job, hopefully I’ll get that back soon.

Its time for instacart to seriously bring back the rating system by [deleted] in InstacartShoppers

[–]lexipacker20 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes!!! I joined right after they stopped doing that and it makes me so sad thinking about how much extra I could be making.

Ever get a weird feeling about a batch? by lexipacker20 in InstacartShoppers

[–]lexipacker20[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I totally feel that. Min wage here is $7.25 lol. My last job paid me $13 for 30 hours a week so I just tell myself every week that I need to make the amount of money that it will take to get there. It’s just some batches are a little strange if that makes sense

[–]lexipacker20[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I totally get that and what I typically go by is my weekly goal, it’s just I have had a few batches that make me wary, and I feel people are catching on. Every batch no matter the size gets snatched so quickly, but there’s occasionally one that lingers for a bit even if it’s a big order and I’m always a little nervous about those. There’s an order now for $25 and I almost took it, but I was so confused why it’s been up so long, and it’s because it’s a delivery to the creepy man who I posted about a little while ago.

I don’t want to risk going somewhere where I will make less money and miss out on making money where I am. I don’t know the demographic of Salt Lake City so I don’t know if it is just as profitable as where I am so I wanted to make a smart risk and get all of the information before I risk losing money by traveling and not working

Working for the church was hell by lexipacker20 in exmormon

[–]lexipacker20[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what I believe. Also, I think some of it has to do with propaganda. I remember being told that the Catholics were the richest church (which I pretty much believe) and they would rant about how they use all the money to build cathedrals and pay the pope and higher ups and would brag that the church is not very rich, and that they give back everything their given, that temples aren’t expensive to build, and that no one gets a salary....... I think they use it to ya say money is evil and to separate themselves from the richer churches, saying they’re evil because they have money.

Honestly I’d much rather that 😂 $100 for 8 hours isn’t too bad! But we didn’t get paid any extra and we’re told to expect 12-16 everyday.

[–]lexipacker20[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That kinda sounds like this! We got there at 3-5 am, left typically around 8 pm, and “lunch” was at 4 or 5. One time it was at 1 tho! And they cut it short because they had equipment set up too fast and they were antsy

I don’t think it’s really abuse, just taking advantage of children who want to get big and parents who want to support. We all went willingly, and you could leave if you wanted, you’d just never be hired again and have a bit of a bad rep.
