  • I worked in this industry as a safety driver and various other positions for over 6 years in AZ, first with a company that also made national headlines, and then with the company that has connections with a certain search engine. From the inside it’s easy to see these outcomes happening more and more frequently, these companies are concerned with getting as many driverless miles as they can because that’s where their data comes from, the data is where the money comes from and that’s all that matters. Drivers are typically subcontracted, forced to work long and stressful hours with few breaks. Safety is emphasized, but even dealing with fatigue in the appropriate ways can lead to disciplinary action if you’re fatigued too often, so it goes unreported. I left the company specifically for safety concerns and despite making double there what I make now I won’t be going back.



  • Did you not see the stupid caption on top? It’s clearly designed to push the idea that poor people are poor because they spend their money on bullshit, never mind the fact that there’s no fucking context, somebody just took a picture of trash in a cart and decided to say “fuck poor people” and any other interpretation is either stupid or disingenuous
