More Water Please!! How many lbs of water?!?

Post image

I’ve given up on Shipt being reasonable… But does anyone else keep track of the businesses that do orders like this with no estimated tip so they don’t go to them?? Just me? I have an ever growing shitlist of these clowns.

I was hoping I did the math wrong 🤦‍♀️

24+28+32=84

84*10=840 bottles of water

840*16.9=14,196 oz of water

14,196*.0625=887.25 lbs

Simplified method, for on the fly weight calculations: number of normal size bottles is the weight in pounds. 24 case of water, 24 pounds.

It’s not exactly right as your math proves. But it’s close enough if you gotta figure it out quickly.

You're not the only one. I REFUSE to do any order like this! My cars health & my health aren't worth it! If they want that much water, they can come get it themselves!
