Drive Scraping by in Uber's America, One Ride at a Time [Audiobook]

With a compelling blend of honesty and sardonic wit, Rigsby invites listeners into his car to reveal the harsh reality of gig work for so many: grueling hours, living paycheck to paycheck, and hoping to avoid disaster long enough to prepare for the next bill. Along the way, he showcases the humor and humanity in the private moments of vulnerability that happen when people are left alone with a stranger-from the amusing tales of drunk college students to a passenger getting sick on the dashboard, a mother expressing distress about her son's addiction, and a violent encounter on the job. Unflinching and raw, Drive exposes an ugly truth that hides in the gaudy background of the American dream: you can do everything right and still fail. Buckle up.
