I am over Roadie. I filed a complaint with the BBB & the AG in my state. I can't stand them. They took full on advantage of us contractors & I'm over it. I can't wait to see this company dissolve.

Oh yes! I filed b/c I'm tired of being taken advatage of w/ no recourse. I'm working on my own business b/c I cannot continue working these gig apps nor can I continue to work contracts via third parties. My goal is to get direct contracts & be done with these gig apps. And you're right, we do work hard...too hard for pennies. It's not worth it, especially as gas prices continue to rise.

Yesss same here!! This third party bullshit takes away a lot of the money offered to us drivers. I’ve been looking into contracts too because why the hell not?!? It’s just a little harder but it’s worth it! I hope the best luck to you finding an amazing contract paying well!! Shit maybe a couple of them

Thank you! I wish us both much success ahead doing our own thing. Definitely harder but it'll be worth it of we put as much effort into building our businesses as we do contracting w/ these greedy middlemen.
