In my own life, I've found the total cultural embrace of "full-time" employment to be a vector for voluminous abuse.

It's specifically because we draw income from one company that they have leverage to abuse us.

It saddens me how this (to me) plain fact is left out of the debate about gig workers and their protections.

I think employee protections are crucial, but I think the notion that gigs are abusive in and of themselves is a misattribution of blame.
