Martha makes a living working four different jobs. In the morning she walks dogs for four neighbors on her block, then she picks up and delivers groceries for Instacart. In the afternoons and evenings, she likes to either drive passengers around using Lyft or provide childcare using KangaDo. What term best describes the modern type of economy that creates Martha’s employment options?

Gig

Explanation:

The workers who drive your Ubers, shop for your groceries, and show up at your house to hang your pictures are part of what’s known as the “gig economy.” This refers to a way of working that doesn’t involve stable, full-time employment with one company but rather a series of freelance jobs (“gigs”) that may take advantage of individuals’ unique skill sets but that provide neither stability nor benefits.

administrative jobs normally have someone answering phone calls and scheduling appointments, filing patient or customer information, making sure the front of the office looks nice to those who enter the building. administrative jobs can also include making sure the manager has everything they need for meetings, making delivers and much more. administrative jobs are important to most businesses as are customer service focused as they are often one of the first impressions a consumer sees of a business.
