3 Part story: 📍Uber/Lyft drivers would have been paid $11/hour under CA Law 📍Uber/Lyft spent $224 million to overturn it—and was successful against it. 📍Result—Drivers net earnings now just $6.20/hour–way below poverty wage in California! ➡️Labor rights are human rights.✊🏼

Remember when Uber, Lyft & others spent $224 million on Prop 22 & overturned the law that forced them to treat drivers as employees rather than contractors (and to give them benefits)? And how they claimed Prop 22 would benefit drivers? Well, the results are in: $6.20 per hour

When 2 groups of penguins meet on the road, they stop for a short exchange of information. When one of them moves in with the wrong group, a friend goes after him to bring him back🙂🐧🐧🐧

"Every elected official should have to take the bus at least some of the time, because if you did you'd change your mind about how much money should go into buses & frequency of service, dedicated lanes, all of the things that can make public transit a great system." @mayormcginn

I can't add context due to a NDA but on a list with a mix of user experiences. The android folks want things fixed before adding new features, the IOS people want new features before fixing current issues.

Holy Week .. In Jesus’ final days... He borrowed and arrived on a donkey, Washed dirty feet, Shared a meal with misfits, Felt abandoned, Forgave enemies, and went to the Cross because of His love for humanity. This is grace. Amazing Grace. It is Finished.
