It's a shame for workers that delivery driving is now a gig. Historically, it was a stable, good paying career, something to work towards within USPS.

But hey, at least shareholders are getting a better value.

edit: It seems like any comment not intensely pro-capitalistic ends up downvoted. You folks need to realize that while capitalism is a fantastic method of maximizing wealth generation, it's not perfect.

Our lower-middle class is shrinking while our lower class is growing because of the loss of jobs like these. The fact that I'm getting downvoted for pointing this out is a bit surprising, given the generally levelheaded comment section this site usually provides.

Amazon PE ratio is insanely high. Even shareholders aren’t getting better value.

Amazon is abusing drivers, fulfillment workers, and AWS engineers (so I’ve heard) because they can get away with it. It’s a shame really.

I would argue that they are. Amazon has low profits because they blow all of them into capital expansion, not because they aren't making them.
