    You’re right, but the parts you’ve picked are misleading. Minimums are normal for a lot of gig work.

    I was primarily marveling how high the pay rates were, and that business owners essentially have to pay the cops whatever they want. The minimums don't seem particularly outrageous given that the cops reportedly don't really do anything when they are there.
