        So… Full time then refers to 24/7/365? That’s ~60k hours, at that point I believe when they say they’ll earn 180k (or $3/h)

            Because delivery drivers are chronically underpaid and overworked, so I tried (and apparently failed) at making a joke.

            Edit: I also just now realized I made a super stupid math error. I really should sleep.
