People need to understand almost each time these people aren’t voluntarily leaving they are getting laid off but they have the benefit of having the story spun with great PR. I work in the finance dept for a big tech firm and all the C suite that left had severance agreements given to them but they go on slack and give a story that they are stepping down

Not to mention, outside of the very expensive benefits that FB offers, they have very high salaries. The median salary at FB including non tech roles is $240,000. No one complains when they get offered omega bucks ("I know my worth") but it is haram for the company to want more efficiency? 🤔

No, I’m not claiming X will lead to Y; I’m claiming it isn’t impossible. Also, we aren’t sure what consciousness is or where it’s located outside our own understanding, so how and if it arose is a mystery

Underpaid and undervalued are not the same thing.

The system as is does not provide accountability and having a generous tip to begin with does not incentivize the shopper to go down more than a couple of aisles.

We have had multiple orders with InstantCart and almost every order had a handful of items that they couldn’t fulfill but this was like $80 worth of groceries and was unreasonable. (I mean seriously who wouldn’t be upset?) She may have even felt that way because the first thing she said was “Boy they were out of everything tonight.”

We were kind and gracious with our shopper and did not attempt to adjust the tip or complain about the shopper. It was frustrating and an inconvenience to have to go out to get what the shopper missed but it makes me more frustrated to think about people who rely on these services and have to place an additional orders for little things, like feeding your dog or toothpaste (like my partner’s grandma who started using this when she was going through cemo last year and initially why we first gave this service a try).

In the end, we started using order pick up which is 100% the way.
