This article draws from the scholarly analysis on migratory temporalities, to shed light upon the temporalities of urban delivery platforms, strongholds of migrant labor. We focus on waiting both as a research object and analytical lens to further comprehend the intersectional precarities at work in the food-delivery sector. What does the border tempos have to do with a delivered meal? Based on ethnographic research conducted in Spain and Chile, we gathered two sets of distinct temporalities coming together: on the one hand, the codified periodization of migratory statuses; on the other, the uncertain timing of speed and still, labor and no/labor of digital gigs. The intersection where the border and delivery chronopolitics come together remains understudied. Drawing on select empirical examples, delivery waiting emerges as a central and ambivalent practice among riders’ everyday lives. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MICINN-AEI/PID2020-115170RB-100 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MICINN/RYC-2018-024990-I info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by-nc https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/deed.es 2.5 2024 GEOGRAPHY 40 / 174 = 0.23 2024 Q1 T1 ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES 109 / 193 = 0.565 2024 Q3 T2 1.412 2024 Geography, Planning and Development 2024 Q1 Environmental Science (miscellaneous) 2024 Q1 5.9 2024 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Casas-Cortés, Maribel Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0001-9390-4022 4009 030 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
