On Average Intelligence News, Jake takes a look at the planned rideshare and delivery driver walkout, organized to protest low pay, safety concerns, and unfair working conditions. Thousands of gig workers were reportedly expected to participate, but with the strike scheduled from 11 AM to 1 PM, was anyone actually going to notice?
Jake questions whether a two-hour strike could accomplish anything, argues that independent contractors have the freedom to find better opportunities, and wonders why drivers didn't walk out for the entire day if conditions were really that bad.
Was this a meaningful protest against Uber, Lyft, and DoorDash, or did everyone just take an extended lunch break?
