Sono seduta in auto nel parcheggio di Costco, grande catena di ipermercati all’ingrosso qui negli Stati Uniti. Intanto fisso la app di Instacart, azienda che si occupa del ritiro e della consegna di prodotti freschi e alta qualità. È la prima settimana che lavoro come personal shopper, mi occupo cioè di consegnare cibo agli utenti della piattaforma per arrotondare il mio misero stipendio da dottoranda in Nevada.

I’m sitting in a Costco parking lot, staring at my Instacart app. It’s my first week as a shopper, and all morning long, I’ve been at supermarkets in the sprawling, affluent community of Summerlin, Nevada, locations where the algorithm has detected a high likelihood that a customer will enlist my services. Except no one has, which means I’m currently making less than the $22 I spent on the insulated grocery bag Instacart recommended as part of its “best practices.” I have 18 miles of gas left.

I saw the tin foil on the windows of the trailer as I climbed the rusty, metal steps to the door. It was unlocked. Inside, it was dark and dusty. The smell of propane hung in the air. There was an ominous quality to the stained corduroy couch, a sense that something poisonous lay dormant in its cushions. A hulking, nonfunctional CRT television rested in the corner. In one bedroom, there was a pile of used mattresses. In the other, an empty box spring, wood panelling, a garbage bag of clothing.

Krista Diamond | Longreads | May 30, 2024 | 9 minutes (2,660 words)Before I climb the mountain, I stop at 7-Eleven and buy a sandwich. The 7-Eleven is in Tromsø, Norway—technically the northernmost 7-Eleven on earth, but what’s really special about it is the food: tikka masala, soft-serve frozen yogurt, fresh smoothies, croissants, and most relevant to my hiking plans, paninis. The sandwiches are too big, I think, looking at them behind the glass deli counter. A big meal is a source of shame to me.
