When I was a waitress I’d get $15+ tips for bringing food to a table. Working for Instacart… for which I drive to the store, then shop, then drive to them, and most times want you to bring it to the 25th floor; they tip $1 or $2. ALL IC shoppers need to go on strike.

Been trying to get an order through @Instacart . Every single time for the past 4 weeks, the order just sits there without any shopper picking it up. No idea if @Instacart is fubar or if the shoppers are on strike because all I get from customer "service" are non-answers.
