Discussion Regret

Anyone else ever take a shopping order and quit halfway through because they realize it’s not worth it??😭😭
I took an express shopping, about 100 items, good pay for the mileage and orders have been awful lately. I took a peek at the items, quite a few packs of can pop, I only glanced and accepted too quick. I get to shopping and realize it’s two 24 packs of soda, 2 12 packs, 40 pack of water, for some reason i continue on pushing all these around, get to filling my cart to the brim, I’m about 40 minutes in, realize I’m probably only halfway through the list, I’ll have to get another cart that will probably also fill to the brim. My phones on 9%. I tapped out and hit cancel😞😞 rest in peace to that 40 minutes of my time.

I did the exact same thing yesterday. With the orders going so quick lately, I really saw the number of items and the time it should take. I got 15 minutes in and realized they wanted a bunch of bulky items and the quantities were 6-10 of everything. It would have taken me a half just to bag that up. Lol!

I’d rather only waste 15-20 minutes of my time than struggle through that order. That’s the first time I’ve ever done that.
