Food shoppers fatigue

Genuine fatigue for food shoppers. For context: my mom is disabled and I live across the country. Was excited when I found out I was able to Walmart grocery deliveries to her (she lives 10 minutes out of town) and I always tip generously for the extra drive. Usually $30+ because It’s saved me a lot of hassle of finding ways to get food to her. That being said.. LIKE ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I genuinely question if common sense should even be called such anymore because it’s not as common as you’d think. If someone orders a pound of ground beef WHAT WOULD POSSESS YOU TO OFFER A FULL $44 RACK OF BEEF RIBS AS A SUBSTITUTION?? It’s almost comical like it feels intentionally idiotic. This week I had a small order of staples I sent her way.. milk, eggs, bread, butter, oil and a few household supplies.

No milk available… in the entire store apparently because there was no substitution offered and (no way to chat with the shopper) is another great Walmart+ feature too. Asked for bland Sara Lee white bread. Apparently “fork split English muffins best I can do” was the vibe. should I be complaining? Probably not but here I am anyways because genuinely how do people get by in life being this way

Going out of town tomorrow AM. Ordered a carry on from Amazon (so I don’t have to pay $70 to check my big suitcase) last night to be delivered today between 4 am and 10am. That didn’t happen, then they said between 12 and 6pm. It’s currently 6pm and it says it was out for delivery and hour ago with it saying delivered by 10pm. But now it says expected by tomorrow 6pm but still says out for delivery😪 (good weather and all that btw)
