How ironic it's sponsored by Walmart 😂😂😂

[@shunnastates1123]

Richard Ottley right that’s what I was thinking!

[@acajudi100]

@@shunnastates1123 Walmart does not use them!

[@gordonzhang]

"I will look into it (the price markup)." He acts like he has absolutely no idea about this. If he truly doesn't know, he's a bad CEO. If he knows but pretends he doesn't, then he's a liar.

[@epapa217]

Gordon Zhang his body language reeks of liar

[@acajudi100]

BBB needs to investigate this crooked company.

[@ledeyabaklykova]

There’s a lot of k*ckb*cks going on in the online shopping/delivery industry in terms of store “partnerships”. Lots of execs to satisfy.

[@armida6790]

This whole pay has changed since then! It has taken a significant change for shoppers! The decrease in pay! I would like for Jason Del Rey to reach out to the "shoppers" everywhere where the new pay structure has started and has caused up-roar with the customer's not getting their groceries. There is more to this story!

[@jerrysmith5044]

One of the most well-spoken and intelligent tech CEOs I've listened to. Interviewer was garbage and cringey. Lots of questions intended to entrap the interviewee, but none of the interviewer's BS worked.

[@BrazilianSeafarer]

How about making your app safer from bots stealing batches from shoppers? Are you going to act upon it?

[@lorettadelgado1167]

CFO take care of your front line “Shoppers”

[@jossiebrady8130]

remember no shoppers , no company , pay your shoppers

[@acajudi100]

Do not cheat your customers!

[@crnbahamas4915]

watching from The Bahamas & starting something similar, Love Apoorva disruptive game changer.

[@acajudi100]

poor is in his name, and use his company, you will be poor.

[@sethgrayson2470]

Great interviewer, great interview! Quality stuff,

[@MrFireboyFTW]

Seems like a good deal

[@dogbonetv4821]

you need better shoppers too. first one i used a few months ago found something wasnt available, contacted me & asked about replacement. last one a few weeks ago left 5-6 items off the list, never contacted me. kind of important when its things like meat, you know, the base of a meal. pretty shitty when you get a service fee as well as a delivery fee and expect a tip if we're still trying to decide if we want to sign up. so far, no.

[@Mistybrooks84]

Bro. This dude's a SNAKE.

[@acajudi100]

REAL TRUTH. AVOID THEM!

[@mariecorona9695]

He steals from his shopper's!

[@acajudi100]

They will steal you blind, so never use them. They stole from me, and the tips of their shoppers. Karma never loses an address.

[@denisebillups1840]

He’s right he is focused on the money that’s it though lol

[@IxDarkxNinjaxI]

Really bad interview didn’t realize he was gonna keep asking about amazon over and over and over

[@wellnessproject12]

You are getting richer everyday on the sweat of thousands and thousands of people getting their ass out of their couch and going out to work for your company. The payment is low and the deals are deceiving. The batches are not intended for shoppers to make money, but for you. You don't know the hassle shoppers have to go throught.

[@blanket1309]

Tough business.

[@muzaffarhussainshakirplana4691]

Bbbb

[@chorizapeke]

Minute 10:01 woooow very smart to asked the same question in a way he has no other way but....answer lol

[@denisebillups1840]

26:09 Look at Justin face are you kidding me!!!! You are the CEO and don’t know if your pricing reflects the same as the actual retailer😑 come on now you are full of nonsense smh 🤦🏾‍♀️ Then he goes to stuttering. Just be real that’s it. These are simple questions that the public wants to and need to know. No one is asking him to share contract details we know that’s confidential however stop using that as an excuse for most of these questions you can answer but it’s an excuse because you have something to hide. My observation and personal opinion.

[@Mistybrooks84]

Interogation, much???

[@valsarff6525]

Mr. Mehta is a con artist.

[@0xIAMROOT]

explain sir.
