Cool, I’m sure when your job becomes a gig you will enjoy the extra “flexibility”. I have this very radical idea that people doing something that other people need, for a large portion of their available working hours, should have economic security.
I’m a concert rigger. My job is already a gig. I like it. I just got back from spending 3 months in mexico. Texted my boss “hey, I’m back in town”, and he started putting me on shifts again.
Flexibility is only useful if you already make a decent wage and don’t have a megacorporation constantly trying to steal your wages and avoid local regulation so it can shit on your rights. Otherwise it’s just an euphemism for being a treated like a disposable cog.

Idk dude, me and my coworkers seem to like it alright. It sounds like you’re projecting some personal issues here
It seems like a lot of Uber drivers, the ones we were talking about, don’t like it, considering all the striking, unionizing, and lawsuits against Uber: https://jacobin.com/2023/01/new-york-city-uber-drivers-raise-strike-court-hearing
But please, do turn this into a “personal issue”, and ignore the facts.
