Yes, but one of the problems with these gig platforms is that workers do not consider all the costs and end up seeing the top line instead of bottom line. Many people are unaware of hidden costs such as mileage, wear-and-tear, insurance impacts, etc. Further, some gig workers are so desperate for money that the top line is the only thing that matters at the moment, I empathize with this and it hurts me to think so many fellow citizens get into this spot.
