from BITEradio.me · host Robert Sharpe

Uber Chronicles: Field Notes from the Front Seat & the gig economy with Jessie Newburn Have you ever wondered what it would be like to drive for Uber? Have you ever been curious as to what kind of people use Uber? Where they are going? What do they talk about during the ride? How do they behave, or misbehave?  This is the book to read! Jessie Newburn’s “Uber Chronicles: Field Notes from the Front Seat,” the first in a series, answers those questions and more ... in the form of storytelling.  Driving for Uber since early 2016, Jessie chronicles her experiences with each--and every--passenger, from the conversations with interesting people with fascinating stories, to the incredibly everyday, ho-hum-ness of people who just need a ride from one place to another.  But don't let the ho-hum-ness of the ride fool you. Ten different days and nights out driving for Uber. Fifty-six passengers. Fifty-six stories. Jessie's book is available and can be downloaded free Oct 30 - Nov1 at Amazon.com Visit the website http://www.uber-chronicles.com/ Read a number of stories at  http://www.uber-chronicles.com/2016/07/14/happy-to-be-alive/
