Some are some aren't. The uber driver with 10k trips per year isn't, the student delivering food on saturday is.

What about a gig worker who works whenever they feel like, get up to 150 hours per month overall, but also use 3 different Uber like companies to constantly compare which one has better offering at the time?
The law will apply on a case by case basis, it's not a decision to force all gig workers to be treated as employees. TFA gives the criteria by which each case will be evaluated.
Are they penalized for turning down trips that don't meet their standards? Are they given the agency to set their rates?
