The facts are these gig “companies” are not concerned with the workers it hires. They are always hiring, always recruiting, and yes, always scheming. There is no allegiance or connection to their employees. And yet? We do it, for various reasons.
Hoping to perhaps change the system? When does that work? A company that gets paid for their service upfront via memberships for millions of customers, a company that allows a customer to not tip, or then take away the tip is unacceptable.
This company that preys on the newbies, or those that are desperate to pay the rent, pay a bill. Those that will, until they figure out what they are losing in taking these $7.00 no tip jobs to deliver groceries, or food, that is delivered to your door. How does that not deserve a tip? Some of this lies with the customer, true. The company is making its quota/$ for sure. We are simply expendable.
What needs to happen? Well, apparently the companies that hire us, can do as they please when they please. We need to stop allowing this.
