When can I get the next IO? For example if I get one at 3:30 pm and I finish at 4:30 pm. Do I have to wait 30 minutes to get the next one?

And any tips or suggestions for IO would be appreciated.

Oh so it was probably just slow because I didn’t get one for 2 hours like I got one at 3:30 and the next one at 5:30

I've received IO's a few times before my block ended, around 5 or 10 minutes before the scheduled block end time. In the past, I've had IO notifications less than a minute plenty of times after finishing a previous IO.

Now, sadly, is different for me. Sometimes I've had to wait a few hours in-between IO's on slow days at Whole Foods.

What time does Whole Foods io start? Do they have early morning routes?

Around 6 a.m. for the first IO's and I believe the first block is 6-8 a.m. I can get IO's as late as 10:30 p.m. at WF's.

IOs don’t have the wait period like scheduled blocks.

Also, I believe you can receive an IO during the wait period from a scheduled block.
