A hidden consequence of the gig economy is that workers keep asking customers for sex or dates::“People have the right to order a pizza … without then being asked for sex or a date.”

    I’m confident it’s not 1 in 3 customers, rather “most customers who are also young women”. You should be able to order a pizza without being hit on, especially as they now have your contact details

      Considering it’s limited in scope to Brits between the ages of 18 and 34, one in three is actually conservative seeing as it’s less than the half of the population you would expect to be women by default.

        That makes sense to me.

        Everyone has a type, even sleazeballs that hit on people they’re delivering food to. They’re bound to find some women that don’t appeal to them.

      You should also be able to deliver a pizza without being hit on. I’m a dad side-hustling to take care of my family. I don’t need women answering the door topless and making “do I get extra sausage” jokes. And I also don’t need old ladies hitting on me when I bring their heavy groceries to the door for a Safeway delivery.

      Whether someone is the deliverer or the deliveree, just get the transaction done and move on with your day. No harassment needed.
