   I’m convinced this awful phrase is being pushed to mask declining living standards.
   
   “It’s not a second job I need just to make rent! It‘s a side hustle!!”

     @DW2 @Shadowman311 Rings similar to the "gig economy" that was being tossed around a while back. Sounds cool on the surface but really means being uncertain whether you'll be able to put food on the table week to week.

     @PhoxFriday @Shadowman311 There’s a reason why you never hear the phrase “standard of living” anymore.
     
     And it’s the same reason nobody has talked about “right track /wrong track“ polls for fifteen years
