Maybe nowadays this is the Amazon and Deliveroo zero-hours-contract drivers.

- AussieWog93 5y agoInteresting, thanks for that. Maybe Aussies are the odd ones out in this regard...
- denton-scratch 5y ago> dustmen The "sanitary operatives" in the UK used to ring your doorbell in the run-up to Christmas, more-or-less demanding a tip. If you didn't tip, then you risked having your Christmas rubbish languishing for a couple of weeks, or even strewed over your garden path. Happily, that practice is now ILLEGAL.
