I agree with most all of that, but shit jobs for teens were all teens in the day. We started in those shit jobs, and our coworkers were all peers. That’s why so many middle-aged people don’t get the modern paradigm. The modern world no longer reflects our youth, at all.

I worked at Lowe’s for 5-months. But you’re right. Most of the gig workers coming through were older than me. I’m 54. Imagine that.
