NaNo suggestion, capitalism
@fakemaxkeeble microtransaction everything. all jobs are extremely short-term contracts. Community "waiting rooms" where recruiters show up and say "okay, I need two programmers and a writer for a week. Who here has Drupal++ experience?"
But also found family built around people seeing each other regularly at the waiting rooms. Illicit community gardens, swap meets, and garment mending parties.
Basically the Depression, but with office work instead of manual labor.

U. Miami has a page from their job incubator that reads like the YA novelization of this: https://www.thelaunchpad.org/
The predatory hunger of tech capitalists to eat Miami and Tampa alive, compared to the lived experience of families that fled Castro and natural disasters to start a new life in South Florida, would play out this way. Folks know how to be good to each other through the bad times.
