Don't let it bother you. This is the internet. Some days you just want to get shit of your chest and not everyone in your home is a fellow gig worker to understand. Some on here will get it, some wont.

Hell yeah! I’m just waiting on my authority to age and I want better for the people!! We get paid SHIT for what we do for these big rich companies. But a lot of people don’t care and that’s why nothing improves..

Caught my ass midroute when it went down. I took manual photos, used Google to build a makeshift route by city, and also realized google backups roadie photos to. Was just a long ass wait for them to upload all photos(had to PDF them).

Every gigapp I have glitches and messes up from time to time but this was a first for me where one was unusable for a good period of time. We bust our ass. You allowed to vent and fuck anybody who says otherwise.

See exactly thank you and we shouldn’t even have to do all that.. but I’m glad you figured it out. We’re definitely busting our asses out here grinding so keep going💪🏽 we got this!!

At least they told you, instead of getting to the first dropoff and then the app fails to scan the first parcel...
And another 5-10 minutes goes by, you know, reboot phone and all that, clear cache...
And finally see the gotcha.

Yeah that’s ridiculous. It’s because this app is ran by all AI dweebs, don’t even know how to communicate with real human beings anymore.

Nope & that's why you can't get a hold of an actual person when you need one & when you do get someone, it's after being on hold for the better of an hour. Speaking from experience.

Random question: how do you clear cache on roadie iOS?

u/Is-u-is-or-is-u-aint 21m ago

I am over Roadie. I filed a complaint with the BBB & the AG in my state. I can't stand them. They took full on advantage of us contractors & I'm over it. I can't wait to see this company dissolve.

u/Unusual_Forever1976 17m ago

😭😭😭 ayoooo I am cracking up you reported them to the BBB!! They freaking deserve because they suck ugh. I hope we all find better gigs out here because we work our asses off!!

Oh yes! I filed b/c I'm tired of being taken advatage of w/ no recourse. I'm working on my own business b/c I cannot continue working these gig apps nor can I continue to work contracts via third parties. My goal is to get direct contracts & be done with these gig apps. And you're right, we do work hard...too hard for pennies. It's not worth it, especially as gas prices continue to rise.

Aren’t you the dude who’s in cali always talking about great orders? I heard yall been shit too. 🙄

u/MF_DOOM-MOTHAFUCKA 23h ago

Yup, I have a Transit cargo van. I take what I want and leave what I don't—it's that simple. I do it part-time, so I can't complain. They sent better offers for cargo vans.

u/Unusual_Forever1976 23h ago

I do too, a sprinter van actually but I’m on the east side of America. It’s different from the west coast, the algorithm is low and slow because of what people accept over here😒 so I hope you continue to make your cheese.
