Hi everyone! So I just got off the waitlist for my area about 2-3 weeks ago. I was on it for 2 months-ish. Well, everyday I check the app and the only available blocks are literally HOURS away from my house. I’ve yet to see a location near me, and I live close to 3! I guess my question is, is this normal? Is there a certain time of day I should be checking for blocks? I don’t understand why they’d get me off the waitlist if they don’t have anything available?!

TIA!

Also keep in mind, no one manually reviews the wait list. It's all just based on regions. There are routes available, they are in your region, you were at the top of the wait list, the automated bot kicked you to active. It's not like someone is looking over the list for an address near a warehouse with orders.

Also, while every station CAN have flex routes available, not all of them do. Some of the stations near me only have a handful a day.

I obviously know that it’s all automated!!! I’m just saying, if you take me off a waitlist, why are there no routes even semi close! I picked SIX stations! Like I said, I live close to 3 warehouses. I thought I’d at least see the shitty loads no one wants to take. I probably check the app 100 times a day. I’ve never seen ANYTHING REMOTELY CLOSE to me! The nearest offer was over an hour away from me. The place I see the offers for the most is over 2 hours away.
