Yeah well. The "gig economy" proved to be an easy sell when everything was on the rise and booming. Not so nice for the individual 'giggers' when shit hits the fan.
Not the ultra privileged taking the hit though. As usual.
.. though I think the freelancers should've known and taking into account the risk of it though.
- halfimmortal 6y agoUnpopular opinion but I feel freelancing's still safer than a full time job in the current scenario. You can charge higher & cushion yourself for an uncertain time (when it comes). Another great thing that you learn while freelancing is how to sell yourself. It varies from industry to industry though. My opinion comes from being in tech. Could be different for events related industries - videography, photography, event planners etc.
