The trials and tribulations of a Los Angeles Uber Driver as he navigates not only the streets, but also a fledgling acting career, taking care of his ailing mom, and life in general.

"The following is an account of my continued life as an Uber and Lyft driver in the Twin Cities metro area, starting December of 2015 and stretching all the way through 2018. Rideshare services vary considerably from market to market, and at no point throughout this book did my market offer the 'pool' service. Finally, it should be noted this book is a sequel to Ubered : my life as a rideshare driver. If you have not read my first installment, I would strongly urge you to stop right here and read that first." --

Long-haul trucks have been described as sweatshops on wheels. The typical long-haul trucker works the equivalent of two full-time jobs, often for little more than minimum wage. But it wasn’t always this way. Trucking used to be one of the best working-class jobs in the United States. The Big Rig explains how this massive degradation in the quality of work has occurred, and how companies achieve a compliant and dedicated workforce despite it. Drawing on more than 100 in-depth interviews and years of extensive observation, including six months training and working as a long-haul trucker, Viscelli explains in detail how labor is recruited, trained, and used in the industry. He then shows how inexperienced workers are convinced to lease a truck and to work as independent contractors. He explains how deregulation and collective action by employers transformed trucking’s labor markets--once dominated by the largest and most powerful union in US history--into an important example of the costs of contemporary labor markets for workers and the general public.
