Male Grocery Shoppers
I’ve seen this complaint a lot - but is there a way for Uber to take seriously how inexperienced male shoppers are? It’s costing people time, money and frustration. The problem is systemic. Not being sexist, but statistically males don’t typically shop for their household so are genuinely clueless and inexperienced. My partner has a concussion and I’ve had to order groceries to take care of them, tell me why I’ve tried to order cilantro 3 times and now I have three bags of parsley. That hasn’t been the worst experience even. I’ve had to patiently walk them through speciality aisles, deal with ridiculous replacements (one wanted to replace saffron with a canned drink) - it’s always a surprise. When I get a woman, I honestly feel blessed that I won’t have to worry about it and I’ll get the things I need (especially with household dietary restrictions) and if not, they will always communicate.
Someone needs to figure this out, provide training or something!
