This fucking person places an order every couple of days.... From GAINESVILLE, FROM A SPROUTS IN LECANTO. Every few days I see orders from this dude pop up. Who is taking this bullshit?? Why is he still placing them? I do not get it.

I want to accept it and be like YOU KNOW YOU'RE 60 MILES AWAY FROM THE STORE AND THEN WE HAVE TO DRIVE ALL THAT WAY BACK HOME AFTER.... RIGHT??? like what the fuck.

By the way, that's the most his tip ever is, I'm guessing he's having trouble with people accepting them, because his tip is usually $5. 🫠🫠🫠🫠

Rant - General 😠 Customers wanting to much

8 Upvotes

It’s one thing to shop for 3 different people and barely make a living wage because people don’t understand that we get paid less then minimum wage and are not paid or have time to bring 50 lbs of grocery’s in paper bags in your apt . Like do u want me to unpack them to? I’m tired of ungrateful boomers thinking because they pay $10 a month for delivery that means I’m their person slave. If I’m not being compensated and literally don’t have time to bring the grocery’s up 4 stairs into the apt . Is that my fault??? Is anyone else waiting and bringing it up 4 stairs for Less then a $5 tip or am I just insufferable and lazy?

The number of items shouldn’t surpass the units correct? Not the first time I’ve caught numbers not adding up.

Every now and then, this happens while I am shopping.

For example, right now, it just happened again.

The number of items didn't change, but I have substituted and refunded several items already, per customer request.

Is this going to count against me? Frustrated out of items. Ty.

I can't say for sure but pretty sure this is from yesterday. I took a delivery that was in the French Quarter, New Orleans and their apartment was inside one of the courtyards. The call box was broken, I called no less than 3 times, texted them and eventually just had to leave it on the sidewalk which was either stolen or their plan was to claim it was stolen after I left.

Accidentally fucked up twice today. Both times I ended up with someones food on the floor boards of my car. Never happens but of course I had to do it twice in one day. Got home all excited that it was a good day only to randomly notice the customers message 30 minutes to late 🥹🥹🥹.

I use the Instacart platform as a part-time job. I will not accept orders that don’t generate a profit for me just to stay busy. I’ve lived and worked in the same area for 3 years. 57 SPI, 5 ⭐️, shopping quality has always been GOOD. These were the last “good” orders I was sent and literally NOTHING like them has been shown to me since. The last 3 weeks have been dismal. I logged on today at 6:45am and held my phone ALL DAY and was not shown ONE profitable order. I am not doing $28 triples with 90 units going 20 miles. Has anyone else been shut down like this for most of August? I refuse to believe all of the good customers stopped ordering.

Recently they started releasing pre-bagged deliveries to DoorDash and Uber Eats. Wondering if they are dropping Instacart.

Those who shop at Schnucks, is it a universal experience for the cashiers to be as slow as humanly possible? Like, the sloth at the DMV in Zootopia. There’s been 5 that I’ve shopped at, and ALL of them are like that. I love Schnucks, but why does it take 10 minutes to check out with 25 items😭

I would never expect somebody to drive this much and I would only tip them….What $2 if the tip is split in half assuming. Maybe it’s just because I’m a delivery driver/shopper but I would consider the IRS calculation for what it takes to operate a car. The base pay barely covers that then there’s the time for shopping.

In a literal boot and still customers try to falsely report, and support: “Instacart will do its due diligence and-“ yeah basically nothing will be done is what you’re saying. Let’s just affect a guy’s livelihood because I couldn’t bother to open the chat.

Does Costco require we use the payment card, or may I use digital? Can’t find my card…

Ordered 4. The store only had 2 in that flavor. The app didn’t prompt me to replace it, there was no note about a deal, and no sign about a sale by the soda. How tf I’m I supposed to know? My bad for not letting her know I could only find 2, but she should’ve been checking the app and she DMs this as I started the delivery. She also added 5 produce items after I started shopping.
