    Nice! About $240 more than I would earn for the same miles and time. How are the benefits?

    No benefits and he still has to pay the FICA taxes and workers comp insurance an employer would otherwise pay (I'm assuming he's 1099 contractor and I'm assuming he pays his taxes and insurance like a good contractor).

    Online shopping has skyrocketed. That cheap plastic #### isn't going to brick and mortar anymore, but still has to get shipped in a hurry.
