Summary
This week, Jen and Paul dissect a "Safety Specialist" job ad that’s equal parts essential and exploitative. Tasked with handling everything from suicides to human trafficking, this role is adjacent to the dark underbelly of the gig economy—yet the ad offers zero clarity on training, team structure, or mental health support. With a lowball salary and a call centre vibe masquerading as a "specialist" role, is this a necessary function or a systemic failure with potentially real harms for real people?
