    There’s a new company, Delivery Drivers, Inc. Currently has 3,000 drivers (not truck drivers)

    CEO is Aaron Hageman

    This company has been furiously advertising in this pandemic for those who got laid off and need something to pay their bills.

    The average non-truck driver sheep is walking to a 1099 trap lol...

    Hate the dude, but I can understand why someone would fall for it.

    It's called the gig economy and has been going on for 5+ years now.
    Basically Uber started it, then Lyft, then all sorts sprang up like Grubhub and the 100 other delivery services. Basically it's preying on people bad at math...

    I went to their web site.
    There is really nothing there except for the offer to call them and sign up.
    No useful information at all.

    That seems to be a place that can 'cheat an honest man'. (or woman...)
    I guess times were simpler in Fields' day.
     
    Upinsmoke Thanks this.
