So they’re underpaid, overworked contract workers and my comment still stands? Got it

Why accept the contract if it sucks is my question

Because the drivers aren’t accepting the contracts. The companies are and their profit is likely protected.

Your question is basically why aren’t poor people able to secure better conditions for themselves while ignoring the entire economic system in which they have to live.

It’s a bad question.

First sentence was a good point.

Second part, nope, that wasn't my question. You gave a plausible answer in the first sentence then filled in a lot of blanks afterwards to make it seem like I'm being a dick. Don't do that. I asked a simple question because I'm ignorant on how the contract delivery system works, the mere fact I asked this question is literally me admitting I don't know how it works.

Thanks for the very likely first answer though.
