Lay definition versus technical definition: The perennial internet spat.

“the Gig Economy” and “the side hustle” are marketing terms for exploiting the uneducated and underemployed and underpaid by paying them less than market rate for the perceived benefit of “freedom from 9-5"
all the “Gig Economy” has done is destroy the lives of actual cab owners and drivers (who made decent money prior…
*** IT *** IS *** NOT *** A *** DRIVER *** SHORTAGE ***
Pretty much whenever I see a restaurant owner whining about "nobody wants to work! They all want handouts!" All the while they pay the waitstaff $2 an hour and depend on customers to handout tips just so their employees can make a living wage.
8/10 anytime I hear, “We can’t find anyone for this position!” it’s because the hours are shit, the work is shit, and the pay is shit.
“Worker shortage” is code for “low paying job.”
1st gear: It isn’t just truckers that are a problem. A lot of good blue color jobs were dominated by Boomers. Truckers, welders, machinists, electricians, plumbers, etc. The Boomers were (and still are) a HUGE generation. All these Boomers in these jobs drove down the wages for them.

Last I checked, you can’t catch obesity from the guy sitting next to you.
I’ve never involuntarily caught a case of the Obesity from someone else.
How is giving people $7500 tax credits to buy EVs a “cash grab” by government?
I simply don’t care that Tchen/Time’s Up “didn’t know the depths and severity.” Time’s Up is supposed to support the victims, not the accused perpetrators. Period. Everyone in leadership there needs to be held accountable, and to explain the decision-making process behind helping Cuomo.
Tina’s original defense was that Times Up didn’t know the depths and severity of the Cuomo allegations.
“Tacky voyeurism” sums it up nicely.
It’s entirely possible the problem is that I am an old and I lived through this whole debacle in real time, but is anyone else...not at all excited about this? I bear no ill will toward Lewinsky—she seems funny!—and there’s no doubt she got treated like absolute garbage at the time. Hell, it might have even been a…
Mits and Fannie Zamore of Tampa celebrate their wedding anniversary at Columbia Restaurant in Ybor City the same way they have for 72 years in a row together: By sitting at the same table in the Patio dining room, No. 370.
They also keep to their annual tradition of toasting to their love with a strawberry Pink…
