Yeah, I tried to get back to some Doordashing myself in the last couple of weeks only to not make much after refilling the gas it took to get out to work, lol. Seems like all the gig companies, at least on the driver side, are suffering right now. Talked with some other drivers the other day while waiting on an order and they were talking about how Instacart and Shipt were both sucking pretty hard lately. So I am focusing on my 3D printing adventure and getting back into to some high leverage BTC futures trading to try and make ends meat these days. I can't get a 'normal job' due to dealing with my Dad and his failing health. I am basically a caregiver and being paid by free rent and food, lol.
It sounds like you are in a unique situation. Putting family first is the correct decision.
Most of the posts I've been seeing on Reddit about Instacart lately are something along the lines of "Where did all of the orders go". That coupled with the fact that I'm lucky to see one good order a day anymore just made me know it wasn't something I could continue to rely on. Thankfully, I had been looking for a new job for a couple of months now. I landed something that fits what I'm wanting to do right now and am actually about to head in for my first morning today. We will see how it goes. I'm still adamant that crypto is going to eventually take the financial stresses out of the picture for many of us. It just has any happened yet for me.
So much for that last reply.
Let’s just say I don’t miss dealing with management at a job. Day 1 and they already fucked up my day 🤣😂 it can only be uphill from here though. How does one text me and tell me this 15 minutes before I’m supposed to be there 🤦🏻♂️ acting like he didn’t already know yesterday that they hadn’t gotten it yet. A heads up yesterday would have been nice.
I would be finding something else. This only shows how screwed up the management is. I had a similar experience with Safeway in Oregon.
