I guess it "fits" with what they're already doing in the sense that it's mitigating risk for the company, but paying the driver pennies when they get a decent tip is on another level entirely. Nobody would ever expect that their tip would go to the company and not the driver, that's just not what a tip is for. A worker not getting paid when sales are slow or not being covered when there's an injury because they're contracted and not "real" employees are things people generally understand at this point AFAICT. I guess my point is that this is outside of what people generally understand about these types of jobs.

I think it is shocking and would be to most folks.

But as for what they understand, I suspect many (not all) of the folks work these jobs ... are just bad at math and don't really realize what they're getting paid / the risks.

In that sense for those folks the entire job is outside what they understand.
