Current Events > Started working as a delivery driver today

(+) Yeah! (+)

Doing shopping and delivering through Shipt.

Only got two orders but it was pretty fun. One lady tipped me $7, the second order the people lived way out in the middle of no where. I get paid $12 for bringing them the order but if they end up not tipping me through the app then theyll just probably go to hell I think

As a delivery driver in the side that last bit made me lol

Messed up, at least tip $5

what's the difference between shipt and Instacart

what's the difference between shipt and Instacart

shipt is owned by target

beyond that I dont know if there is any difference

the Instacart/shipt subreddit is filled with raging drivers talking about how each service sucks

Wow 2 people in a row no tip

what a bunch of crumb bums

Hope that's a side gig

nope but its something for the time being

its kinda cool working only on my own time and not answering to a boss or anything though

The people out in BFE finally tipped me. Only $2 but Ill take it lol

Ugh someone gave me a 3 star rating. Really sucks because Ive gone out of my way to get everything perfect for the people ordering stuff.

Being new even a single lower than 5 star rating just decimates my score.

Don't take it out on customers because your company doesn't pay well.

I dunno, all my orders have been on time and I communicate pleasantly with the customer if there are ever any issues with substitutes or whatever

one lady was really put out that they didnt have the kind of storage rub she wanted so idk maybe that was part of it. I suggested a different one that was similar and sent her a picture but I guess it was the wrong size for the body she was dissolving probably

with how much Im making I might end up homeless anyways so YOLO may as well try

Please dont tear up your car for a job like that. If the company offered vehicles thatd be different.

it's harder to get out of homeless if lost everything.
don't do that.

in the end, how much $ / hour do you think you'll get from the two? does it feel worth it?

ive thought about it and factoring in the gas and the car attacks, its probably around $9 an hour. Doesnt sound like much but if I was in some third world nation Id be fuckin LOADED

why?

That's... literal dogshit. I don't get out of bed for less than $20 an hour.

If you can afford T-bone steaks for dinner you can prob afford to tip me a couple bucks. All Im saying.
