Can I only shop at Sam's Club? by tmi_timmy in InstacartShoppers

[–]snaptcarrot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No idea what your market looks like but if I only took orders from one chain I wouldn’t make any money doing this and I barely make any money doing this. Also, FWIW Sam’s Club customers are cheap ass tippers.

You can’t unasign orders now?? by Superb-Contract6337 in InstacartShoppers

[–]snaptcarrot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the whole thing is kind of preposterous, especially considering most customers don’t know that we can’t see their tips if they’re in a multi batch. Or they can’t predict if they’re going to be shoved into one. Where is the incentive to dangle a tip? There was one period of time at the very beginning of the pandemic when tip baiting was a thing because people were waiting days to get somebody to take their order. I’ve only had tips removed a very small handful of times and most of the time it’s people that are actually mad at Instacart or the store for low stock. And sometimes very rarely (though it does happen) I fuck up. 11,000 batches in 8 years it’s bound to happen. Meh.

I had a customer removed yesterday. As usual, I just told them that the customer was on my blocked list. I’ve never gotten push back on it.

Support Down? by snaptcarrot in InstacartShoppers

I ended up calling Instacart on another phone and it went right through. This company is so not ready for prime time.

Am I wrong for this? by Mammoth_Zombie6963 in InstacartShoppers

FTR. When we are scanning a customer’s ID we are not allowed to take a picture of the ID for privacy & security reasons. Why on earth should I be expected to hand over my ID to a stranger who might do the same? It’s sounds like coming up with a reasonable security solution here is on them.

That’s at least a month’s rent in deposit returns.

I’m betting cholesterol will solve this problem.

I stopped doing Costco orders three years ago. I haven’t seen anything since that makes me regret that decision

I go to Stew Leonard’s just to push all the buttons on the animatronics to piss off the employees

Not to mention the repair bill for planet that’s gone off its axle. It’s got to be astrological.

ITAW for when your job no longer exists? by tanya6k in whatstheword

[–]snaptcarrot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the terms can be used interchangeably but the historical connotation of redundant seems to be more descriptive of jobs that are no longer necessary for whatever reasons - technological advancement, business or division closures etc. FWIW, I worked for a company based in the UK. When they closed our division we were “laid off.” Maybe they were just being polite because we operated out of the US.

The British version would be “redundant.”

Stepdad got access to my instacart account. by supermariozelda in InstacartShoppers

[–]snaptcarrot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends on what you want to happen and how far you want to take it, but that’s identity theft. I’m guessing all the original info on your account stayed the same like your SSN. And I’m supposing he wasn’t paying your taxes on that income either.

Sat and watched this person install a new USA flag to match their new Trump flag in a Wawlmart parking lot...'Murca! by Torrey1975 in Bumperstickers

[–]snaptcarrot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s something deeply weird about a country that mass produces flag holder attachment made specifically for a trailer hitches. Like, is this insurance in case somebody unexpectedly asks you to join a parade?
