Today, I talked to a friend who is an Uber driver who has become so deeply depressed. He works all the time & feels like he’s losing his mind. “This is not life,” he said. Precarious, underpaid gig work is not just an economic problem, it is a major public health issue.

I’m curious... these periods of depression/anxiety/etc surely also exist for those in the “normal” workforce too, do they not? Everyone feels uncertain about their job and future from time to time. Is this really a gig economy thing?
-
These emotions normal throughout all industries but mostly limited to high stress & exploitative conditions. However, Gig app based jobs have overwhelming preponderance of psychological effects inflicted by algorithms designed specifically to manipulate labor force.

Full-time employment sucks. There are tired and depressed investment bankers, too. That's what drove many of us to freelancing in the first place. In America, in a booming economy, people can change their circumstances.
