If you're not familiar with me, I'm the author of Drive: Scraping by in Uber's America. It's a memoir of my time working as a rideshare driver after my divorce, but it's also about how the gig economy lures in an exploits vulnerable people.

I would be very jazzed if you bought a copy.

Bryce is very chatty. He says they're probably won't be much business tonight because it is fraternity formal week, but he thinks some people might be out for the Tyson / Paul fight.

Kelly is leaving her job at Chick-fil-A. She couldn't make it through her shift, and a phone call to her mom helps explain why. She has no energy and said her brain was foggy. The conversation makes it clear: she has long COVID.

As I suffered with LC for nearly two years before finally getting better, my heart goes to Kelly and I vote for her.
I wish I could tell her to take care of herself and to be patient... I do believe she will get better, but it is a slow process...

Samantha is dressed to go out but seems distracted. She's staring at something on her phone, but she's holding it horizontally. I can't figure it out until she blurts out "fucking face card debuff."

She's playing Balatro before the club.

Colleen and her friend are debating whether she can get away with using a picture of her driver's license on her phone to get into the bar. She seems nice until a coughing fit has her say "I can't wait for this to be over so we can go back to that vegan place and I can actually taste things."

Oh yeah, I know that Taco Bell. That place is swarmed every weekend. I'm usually okay with taking people through the drive thru, but I won't do that place.

Good call on the bike for that kind of work.

They got so mad at me for wearing a body camera on deliveries that they tried to lie to DoorDash to get my account deactivated. Eventually DoorDash reactivated my account when they saw the videos and the staff faced repercussions on their end from the managers. But it’s a huge hassle.
