I also want to be paid when I work.



The idea is thoroughly absurd. Our days are filled with unpaid labor. Getting dressed in the morning, collecting the items you want to buy in a grocery store, making your bookings for a vacation, giving your spouse feedback on their wardrobe selection, etc. — all of these things are work.

If you want to argue that they are not work, then surely helping a delivery person who's lost in your neighborhood also counts as non-work for the same reason.
