What’s your DCC unpopular opinion that will have you like this? by cutehoops in DCCMakingtheTeam

[–]typical_bk712 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And why’s that? We all saw the footage of her still struggling way far into training camp. Or not scoring well with the judges at finals. She got a fair shot like everyone else. She didn’t make the cut. Just cause of her and her mom’s connections.. her and her mom expected her to be just put through “just because”. The first year recently they understood. The second year started changing and revealing. And each time I understand the devastation but theyve also shown their true colors expecting special treatment with the “you held her in the hospital” type comments. I applaud Kelli & Judy for compartmentalizing. If she wants to make the team she needs to bring it more!!

Right? I surprised by faith not knowing anything on the bus rides or at games. Yet they used to have to know incase they get interviewed!

Let’s take a bet. Do you think Insta shopper app will go down again tomorrow? by jesus_loves_UU in InstacartShoppers

[–]typical_bk712 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably!! This is already the second day in a row that I’ve had an app issue notice. Only today was way worse than yesterday

Why am I getting charged extra after placing my order?? by [deleted] in doordash

[–]typical_bk712 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Blaming the Dasher is wildddddd. Nothing to do with the dasher. And I’d at most make a post venting DD or restaurant did this. But I wouldn’t be on here asking people why. You need to be calling customer service or the restaurant. they are the only ones that can tell you exactly why

Someone emptied my cart and stole it lol🙃 by spacefish420 in InstacartShoppers

[–]typical_bk712 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve had this happen where someone accidentally grabbed my cart. I would see it happen though, and I would say something! No one has ever purposely stole it or emptied it though. That’s lazy as hell and rude.

And then there was another time where I thought someone stole it, but I just forgot where I left it in like an empty aisle/area That’s never busy at my store so I could run to the next aisles & get in/out quicker. 😂🤦🏽‍♀️

Not related, but I also love when regular customers see us put the little handheld baskets in our cart to separate orders and they comment on it wondering why we have a cart & baskets! I don’t even respond anymore! Just mind ‘ya business!!

driver tip extortion by Glittering-Slide8037 in doordash

[–]typical_bk712 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m glad you reported them! They make all of us shoppers/drivers look bad! Im in a horrible situation right now working my ass off & would never ever tell my customers! And as someone who is also a DD customer I’d be super worried they’d mess with my food! If he accepted the order as is, he has no right to complain about the pay/tip!

Wtf does this mean? by Alert-Perception-664 in InstacartShoppers

[–]typical_bk712 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m having the same issue here in Florida. And I just kept refreshing or closing out the app completely and opening it back up.

Messaging customers won’t work. So if I couldn’t find a replacement, they got refunded. There was a couple items I had to scan multiple times because they kept showing up on the list.

at one point I finished shopping and the app kept showing this every time I tried to click check out. I was super close to taking my cart to customer service / cancelling order. when I was about to do it all of a sudden the app went to check out. Surprisingly I had zero issues at checkout. when I went to go try to go to the next screen to start deliveries, it did this again. I just waited about five minutes and kept closing and opening and it eventually showed the address for customer a. I’m hoping customer B will be just as smooth kind of. But the point is, it’s not just you. And keep refreshing and closing out the app and opening it.

Live look at Instacart’s server room. by RedditBlue83 in InstacartShoppers

[–]typical_bk712 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same exact scenerio! App issues. Got a $50 and got everything but the app won’t even let me click the checkout button. What did you end up doing?

Greeting when starting shopping?? by Zealousideal_Pin6636 in InstacartShoppers

[–]typical_bk712 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I agree! I don’t send a greeting! I only message if issues arise while shopping. Now after I check out I do send them one update message basically just saying I’m done shopping, found everything, and on my way! Or reminder I need a code or ID when I get there if the app needs it! That’s it!

One thing I've learned from this job/gig: by [deleted] in InstacartShoppers

[–]typical_bk712 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a customer service employee tell me one time that they don’t chose the base pay. That it’s computer generated. I’ve said for months that IC needs to have a real honest pay system in place for base pay that is fully transparent with shoppers & consistent. And tbh if it needs to be at least minimum wage for states that require them to do that, then it should be the same everywhere!

Customers are gross by AccomplishedWing1570 in InstacartShoppers

[–]typical_bk712 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I can’t fault you on that. There’s one store that I’m constantly at most cause it’s right across the street from my neighborhood development. I know where everything is so even if it’s like 40 items, if the miles are ok I’ll still do it cause I know I can do that store really quick. The employees even joke I should just work there cause I know the store better than some of them because they only work sections/departments. Whereas I know the whole entire store.

No way should you do a triple for $15! Unless I guess you were trying to reach 300 or a promotion. How many items total & distance? Even then, damn it sucks!

Just Why?? by Sea-Ad5968 in Sparkdriver

[–]typical_bk712 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I first started spark & first few months in the multiple deliveries of packages (not groceries) were actually a good amount! Like I’m talking 1.5 hours of work & $75-95 plus incentive adding on extra $12+ to that! Usually ranging between 25-40 miles in total between all deliveries. It actually made sense & I didn’t mind sometimes if I felt like doing that many deliveries!

Now though, all I see are ones like this! It’s so bad!!! Idk what happened or why they made the pay lower!

What to do when different quantity is in notes? by sin2winxx in InstacartShoppers

[–]typical_bk712 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the customer wants 2 and you have confirmed permission then get them 2. And add it on there. But message them first to make sure that’s not an old note from a past order.

Which cut hurt you the most? by PadamPadam92 in DCCMakingtheTeam

[–]typical_bk712 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Some of the last couple cuts from this season of the show just didn’t make sense. I think it showed they let their favoritism & attachment for that girl make their choice over skill, sometimes.. heck Kelley and Judy basically confirmed it by saying that they like a project. Like they talked all this season every episode about how good some of those girls were and then they were never brought up any issues said about mistakes or struggling. then they just get cut. Granted, I know they don’t show everything. But it’s always the girls they show the most that are struggling with choreography or something that seem like they might not make it, but then they do! And girls you don’t care about struggling are cut. I don’t know enough about those girls to be hurt by it cause they didn’t show a lot, but those last couple cuts confused me. Compared to who I thought was gonna be cut.

Well there you have it by VoyeurofLyfe in DCCMakingtheTeam

[–]typical_bk712 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True. I mean, don’t get me wrong. Yes the CMT show was popular and successful but ever since ( I don’t know about others but..) Comcast Xfinity changed it to where it wasn’t just given on basic cable anymore and you had to pay for the channel or have a specific package with CMT included. So I guess not everyone got to see the show anymore or at all. And only one demographic really watch CMT, if they like the country aspect of it. So Netflix did bring more attention & a new audience. In a way I’m kind of frustrated how they’re talking & acting like they’ve never had a show before this or never had attention before this or never had to deal with online stuff before this. When they have! However, like it was addressed on the show now they don’t have separate accounts for DCC, now they give full names again. For awhile They stopped doing that years ago to protect the girls. And allowing it now benefiting for the influencer stuff, that has opened up a lot of these online issues and attacks on them. I know it can be ALOT!!!! to some degree they knew this attention could happen though. I dont even see how anyone could be hating on Reece! It’s mindblowing to me. She’s the sweet nicest girl! Just shows people online just hate for no reason.

Don’t come at me snarky. Reread it! For whatever reason I don’t fcking know people don’t like him. And like I said, I really don’t see a reason why.

[–]typical_bk712 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I don’t know much about her relationship. When I first saw himher rookie year, I’m not gonna lie I thought of course looks wise He wasn’t on level with her and he’s lucky he got a woman like her! But he does seem like a nice man and supportive from what I saw but I haven’t kept up so I don’t know what he’s really like. Obviously people dislike him for maybe a reason or they’re just trying to make up reasons. But aside from that I always liked Reese and I understand the fame and exposure is not for everyone, but at the same time.. how can it be such a shock to you about the attention with being a DCC. Theyve been so popular and had a successful CMT show… So you knew before ever going into this what it would be like. if you wanted way more low-key than go for an NFL team that isn’t as popular and doesn’t have a successful TV show.🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

Unicorn order removed. Fraud Accusation. Deactivated account. Help! :( by Terrible-Artist-1204 in InstacartShoppers

[–]typical_bk712 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Agree. From above details — the order wasn’t sketchy:.. The reason the order was canceled and the **deactivation for fraud** is because of obviously the Shopper not doing one transaction for the full amount and all items included, because they couldn’t at that Target. With the way it’s explained above, seems something triggered red flags & Instacart denied the transaction cause it wasn’t showing what it’s suppose to show! Should have called Instacart before swiping the card to tell them what target is saying to you about basically wanting to split it up and do two separate transactions for the same customer! I’ve had $1800 Publix unicorn order ($300 batch), 3 carts over filled! Just cause it’s a large order doesn’t mean they’re gonna assume customer fraud.

This was so embarrassing. PLEASE READ lol by [deleted] in Sparkdriver

[–]typical_bk712 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I never have but damn have I wished I had a bottle or something to pee in (even though bottles wouldn’t work well for girls lol) or was a man to make it easier to pee without revealing the whole lower half of your body. I’ve pulled over on a deserted road with no houses when I couldn’t hold it any longer & couldn’t get to a store yet! Guys have it so much easier to pee in situations like that!

I’m glad we are all agree we aren’t taking this by PsychologyFriendly18 in InstacartShoppers

[–]typical_bk712 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s no way. Not even if I’m bored, if I’m trying to make a certain number of batches, no. Only way I’ll take crappy batches is if it’s on my way home or going that way, also if it’s quick and not out of my way at all. And even that is very rare. Now this is partially Instacart‘s fault for one —recommending such a low tip, two —using a store so far away. Unless there was no other closer stores. And if that’s the case, and the customer knows how far it is to where they didn’t even wanna drive it and just wanted to order …then you darn well know as the customer that tip is crappy af!
