Oh I suspect they could just parner with a food delivery service and tap into all those gig economy resources. May even do a uber like service for deliveries, as with the volume Amazon has. They have many options. Certainly the whole gig economy aspect will be one in which ticks many company accounts departments as avoids so many direct employee costs. It's like having a direct employee, but at your beck and call standby without any standby pay and the responsibility you would have with outsourcing. The deniability and responsibility you can avoid as a business over having a full time employee are immense. Which is an issue that is only slowly being addressed. Until then, I'd be supprised if Amazon does not go down this route. Maybe even partner up with Uber or Just Eat. Amazon and Burgers at the same time anybody? I do hope gig economy workers are given some fair and equal rights sooner, been some improvements in some countries, but its modern slavery of our times in the way so many businesses deploy it.
