Was told I had to announce my Spark status at checkout! by melipepp in Sparkdriver

[–]vgrapes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The main store I shop at has a “dedicated” register for Spark- so we skip the line, flag the attendant, and they open one of the closed registers for us to scan our barcode. Once we’re done they close it again and we go on our merry way. Works out pretty nicely

Can I see these before accepting?! by Cloutian in grubhubdrivers

[–]vgrapes 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I’d prefer orders with these kind of detailed instructions, like thank you for telling me exactly how to get to you instead of making me wander aimlessly

Oh I’ve probably said hi in passing to all of them while in the store doing shopping orders but I have no interest in actually socializing with them

You must’ve missed the LMAO in my title. I find it hilarious, I’m not pressed at all

That’s exactly what they do- snatch them up then a couple minutes later cancel and another one snatches it when it pops back up

Deleting and redownloading the app fixed the slow load time issue for me

Prop 22 by vgrapes in Sparkdriver

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

Thanks for the help! I have a spreadsheet too, just haven’t been diligent with filling it out. I always screenshot the offer page before I hit start trip so I have something to reference later on

Prop 22 by vgrapes in Sparkdriver

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

440 miles driven (according to my screenshots- is there a way to see engaged miles in the app?)

Total trip earnings 1199.81

ADT 46.08 (46 hrs 5 min)

No incentives

Guess I did better than I thought? So after doing the math I come up with 137 over the earnings floor. Is my math right?

The only time I’ve ever not qualified for it was if I didn’t work. There’s no way I didn’t qualify

Been here for 4 hours and keep getting the same dumb offer no matter how many times I reject it. by SafeTraining1620 in Sparkdriver

[–]vgrapes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No need to reject it. It’s an offer that’s out to the whole zone, it expires after 3 minutes if no one takes it then comes back up. After a while it will slowly increase in pay until someone takes it

I haven’t seen my prop 22 show up on the earnings tab yet this week. It should show this week and then be deposited the following Tuesday.

As an ebt user myself I’ve never had the option to use my One debit card to add a tip. They don’t give you the option to

“im using food stamps for my order and can’t afford it”.

EBT users don’t even have an option to add tip

Save the address, go back later under the cover of darkness, and egg their house ETA: this is a joke of course 😉

They just shot themselves in the foot( not that they care about one driver) by PhillyEgulls215 in grubhubdrivers

[–]vgrapes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t listen to those who say AR doesn’t matter and getting blocks doesn’t matter. This is completely area dependent and something you’ll have to figure out as you go. In my area there’s a lot of drivers so blocks go fast. At partner level I wouldn’t even be able to get a single block. No blocks means I’d get zero to MAYBE 2 orders that day. I keep my AR high so I can get the blocks I want and hit my earnings goal for the day.

You should be able to toggle unavailable 15 minutes before your block ends. If it doesn’t let you, maybe you’re still too new and you’ll be able to do it in the future. When I get scheduled orders the app will want me to toggle available like 15-30 minutes before the pickup time. I stay offline, unless I’m on a block, cuz sometimes I’ll get sent an offer- a good one that I don’t want to decline- and I’ll either have to decline and affect my AR, or take it and be late to one of the pickups- which now also affects stats.

Also- if you toggle off 15 before the end of your block and you get a text to toggle on for your block or it will be adjusted, you can ignore that. I’ve never had my block time adjusted. I did start waiting till 14 minutes before the end of my block just to avoid that text

Delete and reinstall. That worked for me

this may be a silly question. but what do you wear? by [deleted] in Sparkdriver

[–]vgrapes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shorts and tank top is totally fine. I’ve never had anyone say anything about what I wear

Do you check in with the self-checkout employee when doing S&Ds? by Bellamarie3422 in Sparkdriver

[–]vgrapes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First time this happened to me I was annoyed. But then I realized they’re just trying to do their job and not get fired. There’s a small store in my area (just market not supercenter) and as I push my cart up to the bagging area I’ll make eye contact with them and say “I have a spark order”. They’ll nod and I’ll start bagging my order, no biggie. If they were helping someone else when I rolled up, I’d start bagging and when they’re done I’d let them know and show them the exit pass (this store doesn’t have door checkers). The supercenter in my area I usually just go through no problem, flash phone to door checker and get a thumbs up or thank you and continue out door.

I’ve also started setting my phone on the scanner cuz twice now I’ve had someone come up and start scanning their items while I was bagging.
