What happens when "gig economy" workers have no protections: Instacart gives the best deliveries to drivers with the best ratings. A driver that got one 4-star rating dropped to 4.96 out of 5 stars & went from making $25/hour to under NY's $15 min wage vox.com/first-person/2233832…

"Instacart’s harsh ratings system hurts grocery delivery people like me"

Our livelihoods depend on a ratings system that must change.
