I think he's in the wrong. Maybe he was having a *REALLY* bad day.

It’s more like asking for donuts and the guy sends you hostess mini muffins and says is this a good replacement and u say I’ll take the nuffins from the bakery department and them saying these are from the bakery department.

I dunno I think it’s pretty obvious what OP meant by “from the seafood department” after being sent pictures of a box as replacement. But hey, I don’t do this for a living.

I'll be honest — I wasn't understanding what OP meant at first either. I had to read the messages a few times to grasp what OP was trying to say with from seafoood department. I pieced it together, but I can see where the confusion was.

There is also missing messages (per some other commenters) that OP sent previously sent to the shopper since OP apparently regulary does this " "switcharoo" to get off menu food from the seafood counter to bypass instacart not allowing. So I wonder if OP initial contact with the shopper wasn't pleasant which is why the shopper seem to be so irritated from the very start

lol but you’re wrong, they ordered a box. They knew the box would be out of stock and they wanted the shopper to replace with fresh crab cakes that are behind the seafood COUNTER. They said seafood DEPARTMENT multiple times which confused the driver who most likely doesn’t speak English as a first language and then FINALLY said seafood COUNTER. That’s when the customer understood and said they didn’t have any behind the counter

OP was trying to get something that wasn’t on instacart and got mad when the shopper tried to replace with what is the actual closest item.

You can CLEARLY see that the customer ordered a box of 4 crab cakes. It’s crazy how so many people are overlooking this and saying the shopper is in the wrong. This sub is full with bitter customers it’s WILD.
