#615 | New Jersey Mikie Sherrill vs. Independent Contractors (w/Kim Kavin)

So I know in California that I won't name any names, and I really try and not name this one person.

I always do this.

I'm not going to say it.

But some of the groups out in California definitely, like every time there'd be a rally, let's strike.

First of all, we've always said it's called taking a day off.

You can't strike.

It's an app.

You turn it on when you want to work.

You don't turn it on when you don't want to work.

If you have it off, you're just taking a day off.

You don't strike.

A strike is you have a W-2 job and you're not going to it and you have a picket sign and you're standing out front.

It is not just sitting at home and going, I'm not going to turn on the app today.

And Instacart has run things because they had like four different strikes throughout the years and they were running numbers and they saw more people on the platform every time one of those strikes happened.

No kidding.

There

were more people driving than less.

I didn't know that.

Oh, okay.

People are going to not be on the app.

I'll work tomorrow.

Oh, they attribute it to they saw opportunity.

Yeah.

And the independent contractor in them thought, okay, well, I'm going to take advantage of this and work.

That's logical.
