Instacart

Earn eighty cents an hour by delivering groceries with Instacart!

In case that email is as confusing to you as it looks to us, let us help you parse it: what Brie is saying is that because the customer left a high tip on this particular job, the “batch payment” — the amount Instacart actually pays to the worker — was just 80 cents, including a mileage reimbursement.

Yeah, it's hard to make a tipped job even more exploitive, but they did.
