I walk to the restaurant and get the food myself. I refuse to take part in this gig economy with modern exploited day laborers, and big international companies dipping in to the already small margins of local businesses.
- pasiaj 6y agoI sympathise with what you're saying. As a Nordic person, it does feel like the gig economy is undoing a hundred years worth of advancements in employee well-being. Still, enabling day labor is beneficial in multitude of ways. The problems introduced by gig economy need to be solved at governmental level. Social safety nets and UBI are good tools for that. Combining modern regulation with sharing economy would allow the society to enjoy the multitude of benefits of gig economy without sacrificing anyones well-being.
- Symbiote 6y agoI do the same. It's odd when I walk or cycle past 20 Wolt people waiting outside the restaurants and takeaways on Nørrebrogade. I feel like the only person not attached to an insulated blue box.
