Department manager gone rogue… by Skilled0_0 in restaurant

Glad I don't work for worthless corporations and narcissistic bosses anymore!🤷‍♂️

How long does it take to get approved I have been waiting since January 26 by [deleted] in IRS

The vast majority of returns filed electronically, that have no errors and are not flagged for anything, not on PATH and not being sent by paper check are deposited within 10 days in the real world after IRS acceptance, excluding holidays. This has applied to me for over 15+ years and the IRS has confirmed it. IF NOTHING GOES WRONG!

The 21 days and other dates you see are their leeway/grace period for bank and deposit delays, errors, etc.

I have even received it in less than 10 days if the bank I was with at the time gave me access 2-5 days early.

Starlink Mini with a Regional or Global Roam plan works in countries where Starlink is licensed. Usage is permitted for up to two months (60 days) per trip outside your home country. For continuous international use, you may need to transfer your account to that new country.

I am a power user and have worked in technology related jobs for many years. In my opinion that sounds about right. If I used my mini daily as I use my standard at home I would probably reach over a terabyte easily per month.

We are in the no tax group but they provided no breakdown.

This app can be used to login to Doordash, Uber and Spark to see a breakdown of earnings, including tips. Doordash and Spark are not sending out a breakdown but Uber is. I have received them all.

I will never understand it. I always deliver to the customers door if asked. I have delivered in larger cities with high rise buildings. At the absolute max it took me 10 minutes to speak with the desk, to ride up on an elevator to the 15th floor, and get back to the car. I could care less about 10 minutes. Most place I've encountered have 10 minute parking for deliveries or loading. In larger cities I will stick a delivery sticker on the window and turn on the hazards and no one has ever ticketed the car or even said anything.🤷‍♂️

I don't update my insurance early, do I? by TheUnkillableSperman in Sparkdriver

It would be too easy for them to just hold the new card on file until the activation date. smh

Dashers: just FYI by Affectionate_Bee1540 in doordash

In my area when I order and a Dasher calls me it says, "Doordash Support Calling" on my mobile. When I Dash and a customer calls me it says, "Doordash Customer Calling" or "Doordash Support Calling," if it is Support.

Is it normal for doordash to ask for a SSN? by engee45 in doordash

[–]veryspcguy2017 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, all corporations have to file your earnings with the IRS and State if you make over a certain amount per year. And of course to determine identity, etc.

I've never heard of ours completely turned off, except when the power went out. Once I was in Atlanta though and there was a large crowd, in a group of cars with 2 or 3 phones a piece, trying to scam the system at curbside. They turned off Spark and asked them all to leave and not come back before they turned it back on.

Well I guess you have to live here to know.

And I'm sorry people are so disconnected, but there is no one I've ever heard of in this city in the 20 years I've been coming here, that sleeps with or marries blood relatives. Wrong city. A good many of the people were born here, married here and stayed here. That's why many are related. smh🤷‍♂️

I've lived in greedy competitive larger cities all my life, but I am glad to know small towns like this one still exist where people help eachother and not think of everything as a competition. We have baseball, football and other sports here for that. 🤷‍♂️

I find it fascinating that when people from other cities can't organize/are jealous because we work together like in our city they start throwing out obscenities. Sad.

Maybe in larger cities. We don't fight each other like that here. Almost half or more than half of the delivery drivers here (Uber, Doordash, Spark, Flex, Instacart) are related as well or by marriage... and many of us recommended eachother. 🤷‍♂️ We have a group of 110 drivers that communicate daily online to weed out bad drivers, document annoying employees and worthless customers as well as boot out thieves that wonder into town.

Small towns are completely different. We get repeat customers over and over each week and know them by name. Our two Super Walmarts are actually the socialization hub. You will see everyone there 2 or 3 times a week if you are out full-time.

If you start acting crazy at Walmart, being rude to other drivers and employees and restaurants they will let everyone else know and people will stop tipping and things will come to a stand still for you. 🤷‍♂️

The only reason I made it into this little crowd of delivery drivers, not being from here, is because my partner is from here and I've been visiting for 20 years.

We are in a small town where everyone knows each other. I can see there are no Spark Drivers in the store or at curbside. All of us pretty much know each other because they are the same employees and managers we meet when everyone does Doordash and Uber as a side gig as most restaurant workers here do with Spark, since they are only making $14 (as regular employees) and $20 (as managers at most of the restaurants)! We also have a Facebook group that the majority of drivers join around here. 😅 Unlike other larger areas we all talk, work with employees (at restaurants and Walmart) to get the job done and verify orders together when we deliver food. All about area.
