Here, in this area, InstaCart is better than Shipt. The clientele and pay are better.

About 40 miles south, Shipt is better.

Weird, huh?

My wife actually took a full day off today. She’s been going all hours of the day for weeks. She’s been doing “leave at the door” orders for awhile.

She recently had radiation treatments for Dupuytren’s disease and she thinks she’s getting carpal tunnel from sitting at the computer late at night grading her students’ work. She literally cries in the middle of the night from pain.

She kills herself, though. She’s got some elderly regulars that she feels really obligated to shop for.

If you are in Cali that is the home of Instacart. Shipt is a Target company (from here), so that probably explains the preferences.

My wife does this as well since she closed her store. It is a very fine line between doing well and killing yourself. Very easy to look at the $ and not how much time you are putting in. I am setting boundaries and trying to get my wife to as well.

Yup. Sometimes, I have to “order” (which is really just a strongly-worded suggestion!) my wife to take some time off. She is hard-working and industrious to the point of hurting herself.

I live by the Dirty Harry mantra: “ A man’s got to know his limitations.”

Your wife is definitely a badass… (y)
 
they push education debt with the carrot of high income--- and act like it is 120% GUARANTEED --- get this degree-- add this specialty -- do a couple more years (more debt) and you will be SET FOR LIFE---
I know a lot of very educated/skilled people out of work or working WAY under their skill level for way less than they were told they would make.
 
Gentlemen, I'm proud to announce that Goldmember has successfully limited his bowel movements to once every three days.
His toilet paper and wipe consumption has been drastically reduced, helping him to conserve his meager stash of essential toiletries.
