This is really interesting. I wish if I can hire someone to clean my house and do grocery shopping for me. If you don't mind me asking, how many hours/per week she works for you?
- helsinki 5y agoIt varies based on her schedule. We aim for 25-30 hours per week. There is a lot of downtime on her end, which I am fine with.
- dQw4w9WgXcQ 5y agoWhat sort of salary are you paying her? Interesting idea but a tough sell on handing someone the keys to my bills and personal life knowing it would be tough to recover if they go rogue.
- lief79 5y agoHousecleaning is a very common stand alone service, and grocery shopping/delivery is fairly easy now too. Do you really want an individual, or just a service?
- echelon 5y agoIs instacart going to find the exact brand of kombucha you want and be able to substitute it when it's gone? Will they put it in your fridge for you and leave one out on your desk? An EA/PA is low touch and avoids all the context switching. They're a dependable person you have a working relationship with rather than hit or miss gig for hire.
- krageon 5y agoA service will always be a worse experience. A real human being can mod you and make time for you (this is what you pay them for). To a service, you are a number that the bare minimum is done for to ensure your money comes in.
- xydinesh 5y agoTrue, I already have a cleaning service. They come every two weeks and clean the house. Honestly, I'm not satisfied with instacart and all the hidden fees they have/had (last time I used). What is interesting about an individual is they will learn your preferences and have more context in ones preferences as time goes.
