Breaking: MN @AGEllison & DC @AGKarlRacine both sued gig company @Shipt for underpaying workers and misclassifying them as independent businesses instead of as employees. (FYI, Shipt is owned by @Target) Here's a news story about the DC AG's case: (1/4) theverge.com/2022/10/27/234…

NELP applauds @USDOL’s proposed rule on employment under the FLSA. The 6 metrics correct decades of employers reshaping laws for their benefit while denying mostly Black & Latinx independent contractors the rights they are entitled to. Read more: bit.ly/3ECsQBs

How do these people sleep at night knowing their company thrives on human misery? Uber was a child of the 08 crash at the dawn of mobile tech. Now as the economy slips again, the bleaker the future is for ordinary people, the brighter it is for Uber's management & investors.

As if Uber drivers didn't have enough to worry about w runaway inflation, rising interest rates & higher fuel prices, now Uber's share price is tanking. Cause is management greed in pursuing a doomed business model built on labour exploitation. @dkhos is as deluded as @trussliz!

@Parker19872 @jackcalifano There's a whole bunch of people out there working two jobs that are too tired to be proud of living in poverty.

Just so we're clear: @Instacart is no longer paying most shoppers in North America. They are paying 60¢ a mile for your travel TO the customer and ONLY $1.50 to shop the ENTIRE order. THAT IS ILLEGAL, EVERYWHERE. CUSTOMERS, PLEASE STOP USING THIS PREDATORY SCAM SERVICE!

During the final days of session in 2019, @Uber Chief Legal Counsel told me if I didn’t exempt them from AB5, they’d just continue to break the law. Because… that’s their business model. So, it’s hard for me to believe their sins of the past ended in 2017 as they claim now.

So sell our bodies to the Pentagon in exchange for.... basic bodily autonomy? Our members know a company union when we see one. If I want my uterus to be mine, I have to die for it. Message heard loud and clear.

This is not a labour win. Gig platforms have clocked that organized labour is the biggest threat to their model. Company unions are the strategy they now deploy in order to defang and divide this growing movement.

Uber & Lyft have touted the gas app Upside as a way they've helped drivers save at the pump, so @tenuous and I took a deeper look at the app. We learned it uses AI & user data to dictate how much to charge people--and that doesn't always lead to savings themarkup.org/ask-the-markup…
