poets in the Soviet Union would take on small jobs like being a janitor

imagine opening an app and you see the local soup kitchen and pet sanctuary as listings

the soup kitchen posted an event for lunch and you hit "volunteer"

you help pack boxes and get a meal

your labor directly benefitted someone

your social credit increases

    I would hope that it wouldn't be 'the gig economy', and would rather just be, 'an ordinary day in life where I do shit in my community because it sounds good to me and because I want to do it'

      I mean under socialism all the shitty exploitative stuff that “the gig economy” connotes would ostensibly be irrelevant.

      I imagine it’d just be a sector of the work force that uses technology to disseminate info about jobs that need to be done to people who like doing random odd job/temp kind of services.
