The Walmart Spark app crashed right as I pulled into the parking lot 😳 — and things got interesting fast.

In this episode, I’m out in 25-degree cold weather trying to run a morning Walmart Spark shift when the app suddenly glitches, kicks me into the wrong system, and even Spark support starts routing incorrectly. After resets, reinstalls, and a surprise “prove you’re human” update, the order finally returns and I’m able to complete the delivery.

From there, I switch gears and head into a challenging DoorDash lunch shift, with Platinum status and acceptance rate pressure adding to the day.

This video shows real gig-work life for retirees — app issues, offer decisions, shopping orders, mileage vs. pay calculations, and adapting when things don’t go as planned.

If you’re:

• A retiree doing gig work
• A Walmart Spark or DoorDash driver
• Dealing with app glitches or slow days
• Curious what delivery work is really like

👉 This one’s for you.
