News editors obtained the following quote from the background information suppli ed by the inventors: “Online concierge systems allow customers to place online d elivery orders and match the orders with pickers who flexibly service the orders at retailer locations on behalf of the customers. Pickers may service orders by performing different tasks involved in servicing the orders, such as driving to retailer locations, collecting items included in the orders, purchasing the ite ms, and delivering the items to customers. Orders may be serviced by pickers for a variety of time slots and locations, and pickers may earn different amounts f or servicing orders based on the time slots and locations of the orders they ser vice. For example, during the busiest time of day, a picker may earn a relativel y higher hourly rate for servicing orders in one location, while during the leas t busy time of day, a picker may earn a relatively lower hourly rate for servici ng orders in a different location. Based on their availability, pickers may crea te their own flexible schedules for themselves to achieve their earnings goals ( e.g., to maximize their earnings, to make a target amount in the least amount of time, etc.).
