I posted this because I’ve read many horror stories about using gig-work apps.
One example is someone in the SF Bay Area that used an to find a verified dog sitter while traveling. All seemed fine until the dog was returned. It was a DIFFERENT dog.
Another example is apps like UBER/LYFT to get a ride. I now hear ads on the radio from lawyers looking to represent those that have been harassed, molested, or raped.
I would trust my child with anyone found from an app.
Childcare was largely shut down due to the pandemic and struggled to bounce back. This is a company that started to address some of the lack of access. I agree that quality affordable child care is strongly lacking in this country, and I see more access such as June Care provides as a good thing.
Or is this just a Lemmy contrarian thing again, where I’ll get downvoted and receive snarky comments without any actual discussion
Calling something the uber of anything is a huge fucking red flag. Uber is well known for exploiting its workers, skirting laws, and other shady practices. Why would we believe this will connect people to quality affordable healthcare?
This exists to make the Salyer rich. It is not a benevolent setup if she refers to herself as an entrepreneur. This is her inserting herself as a middleman to suck money out of the childcare system. The app already encourages the providers to price their services based on the surrounding area, which is either encouraging them to be underpaid like uber drivers or to inflate prices so Salyer can take a cut, or both. It is already bragging about manipulating prices in that article.
So many red flags, I just pointed out the obvious.
Everyone loves to complain, and the few people who actually do something to address the problems we’re dealing with get shit all over. I welcome you to open a rival childcare service and prove me wrong
Raising a child, supporting family and friends in need, being a positive and supporting coworker. I oppose shitty conservative policies that negatively impact others and while I’m not successful in everything I do I have an overall positive impact on society.
I don’t make apps that suck money out of the childcare system and encourage price fixing. I see that as massively worse than any positive benefits the person who created the app provides to society.
Sounds like it’s been successful, not sure how this is a shit post

Mmm, yes. Childcare’s race to the bottom!

I only shit on the obviously horrible ones that are exploiting a problem for personal profit.
What beneficence are you providing the world?
