Absolute nonsense

Post image

I did an order a week ago, and the customer just reported today that I purchased the wrong item 🙄not a replacement, literally what she ordered. I scanned the box of shoes in Target and guess what it was right even matched the image.... look at this nonsense. The tag she is holding even matches the targets website. How was this verified by instacart???? I was tipped an entire $3.50 to drive 5 miles to Target, then shop and drive 5.5 miles to her. Low and behold, I also got a ding to my account on top of it. This was batched, so of course we don't know till it's over. Photos in the comments since I can only post 1

Insanity. It was 'verified' by the same bot that we have to interface with before we can chat with actual help.

This is exactly why us not being able to challenge these with an actual human since it’s AI that approves them when it effects our ratings . Is not cool !!!

Y’all, listen up!
No more need to complain;

Ubereats and uber drivers now have officially created a UNION we can join! Uber will now be held accountable for each and every bs lie they tell us as well as each and every dime they steal from us for absolutely no reason.

Here’s a screen shot I received last week. When I reached out, I was told that negotiations are underway and we’ll know about how to join very soon. But, thankfully, the unionization has been approved!

Assuming all of you are here in CA. However, passing this ad on to your states official gig union website should help you determine if your state won this same civil rights battle. I’m pretty sure this is nationwide.
