Rideshare services vary considerably from market to market, and at no point throughout this book did my market offer the 'pool' service.

Book Synopsis Ubering: the “Rideshare” Story by : Rafael Fermoselle
Download or read book Ubering: the “Rideshare” Story written by Rafael Fermoselle and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2019-12-22 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are a few creations that have become “products,” because they became dominant in the market, and synonymous with an entire product category. Genericized names include Frigidaire, which became synonymous with “refrigerator,” Xerox, which became synonymous with “photocopying,” and Kleenex, which became synonymous with “tissues.” That has been the case with Uber, which has become identical with “rideshare.” Despite rapid growth since 2010, Uber has not become profitable, is carrying a cumulative loss of over $15 billion, as of November 2019, and it is doubtful if it will ever become profitable. Despite becoming an “eponym,” a key component of the gig economy, and inspiring numerous copycats, there is no guarantee that Uber will be able to generate an adequate return on investment, and remain in business. The concept has fatal flaws that impair its legal soundness. In the end, consumers and society determine if any business succeeds or fails. Government regulations are largely non-partisan, and exist to protect society, the general welfare, and the free enterprise system. Uber and the ride-share concept may be plowed under by regulations that exist to protect the public interest. However, regulations sometimes backfire and cause unintended consequences.

She’s seen her fair share of mysterious passengers and explosive break-ups in the backseat of her car, but Charlie lives a no-strings-attached lifestyle and never gets involved. But when a routine post-party pick-up ends with Charlie crashing into Andre, her school’s notorious party boy, she’s forced to make a deal to drive him anywhere he needs to go, anytime, until his car can be repaired. Suddenly Charlie and Andre are stuck together, and they couldn’t be more different. But Andre’s charm wins over Charlie’s passengers, and she soon finds herself at risk of breaking her most sacred rule: don’t fall in love.

Download or read book Uberland written by Alex Rosenblat and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2018-10-23 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Silicon Valley technology is transforming the way we work, and Uber is leading the charge. An American startup that promised to deliver entrepreneurship for the masses through its technology, Uber instead built a new template for employment using algorithms and Internet platforms. Upending our understanding of work in the digital age, Uberland paints a future where any of us might be managed by a faceless boss. The neutral language of technology masks the powerful influence algorithms have across the New Economy. Uberland chronicles the stories of drivers in more than twenty-five cities in the United States and Canada over four years, shedding light on their working conditions and providing a window into how they feel behind the wheel. The book also explores Uber’s outsized influence around the world: the billion-dollar company is now influencing everything from debates about sexual harassment and transportation regulations to racial equality campaigns and labor rights initiatives. Based on award-winning technology ethnographer Alex Rosenblat’s firsthand experience of riding over 5,000 miles with Uber drivers, daily visits to online forums, and face-to-face discussions with senior Uber employees, Uberland goes beyond the headlines to reveal the complicated politics of popular technologies that are manipulating both workers and consumers.

Download or read book Uber Dick written by Andrew Dertien and published by . This book was released on 2018-10-20 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nick Freeman is down on his luck. Recently divorced, he drives for Uber and sleeps in a homeless shelter in the Tenderloin district of San Francisco, while his ex-wife remains with their two young children in her Victorian house in Lower Pacific Heights. A native of Texas, Freeman reminisces on the days when "life was 'laaf' and time was 'taam'." As a youth, he gave up sports for drugs and soon became a heroin addict. When we meet Nick in Uber Dick, he's clean, but often has to fight the urge to use when faced with dire circumstances. His love for his children keeps him going and drives his pursuit toward building a secure home space to share with them. Dertien's experimental and jagged narrative parallels Freeman's existential, random thought-process and provides the reader with a raw, honest view into the dark comedy surrounding the protagonist; Nick Freeman knows himself well enough to throw a few jabs at himself for some laugh-out-loud gallows humor. A portrait of a single father struggling below the poverty line in the most exorbitantly expensive city in America, Dertien also reflects the contemporary zeitgeist of a once very cool city that, having been invaded by the tech industry, now mirrors the hypocrisy of social injustice, economic disparity and political absurdity that shatters artistic communities and the individual spirit in our country today.

Pseudonyms are used to disguise the Lyft passengers and the dialogues are carefully edited to protect passenger privacy. Each original story has been written by the author.

Finally, it is a book about compassion, change, and serendipity, the natural accidents that make our lives extraordinary and compelling.
Download or read book Whistleblower written by Susan J. Fowler and published by Viking Adult. This book was released on 2020 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The unbelievable true story of the young woman who faced down one of the most valuable startups in Silicon Valley history--and what came after In 2017, twenty-five-year-old Susan Fowler published a blog post detailing the sexual harassment and retaliation she'd experienced as an entry-level engineer at Uber. The post went viral, leading not only to the ouster of Uber's CEO and twenty other employees, but "starting a bonfire on creepy sexual behavior in Silicon Valley that . . . spread to Hollywood and engulfed Harvey Weinstein" (Maureen Dowd, The New York Times). When Susan decided to share her story, she was fully aware of the consequences most women faced for speaking out about harassment prior to the #MeToo era. But, as her inspiring memoir, Whistleblower, reveals, this courageous act was entirely consistent with Susan's young life so far: a life characterized by extraordinary determination, a refusal to accept things as they are, and the desire to do what is good and right. Growing up in poverty in rural Arizona, she was denied a formal education--yet went on to obtain an Ivy League degree. When she was told, after discovering the pervasive culture of sexism, harassment, racism, and abuse at Uber, that she was the problem, she banded together with other women to try to make change. When that didn't work, she went public. She could never have anticipated what would follow: that she would be investigated, followed, and harrassed; that her words would change much more than Uber; or that they would set her on a course toward finally achieving her dreams. The moving story of a woman's lifelong fight to do what she loves--despite repeatedly being told no or treated as less-than--Whistleblower is both a riveting read and a source of inspiration for anyone seeking to stand up against inequality in their own workplace.
Book Synopsis Promoting the Sustainable Community by : Gregory Ching-cheng Han
Download or read book Promoting the Sustainable Community written by Gregory Ching-cheng Han and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Clean Air Act of 1990 mandated that areas classified as "severe" non-attainment must impose commuting restrictions on major employment sites. The mandates were recently put on hold and states were given the option of implementing the mandates. The previously required mandates demanded that organizations employing over 100 employees survey their work sites to obtain information on commuter mode usage, develop plans to reduce vehicle occupancy (usually in the form of transportation demand management (TDM) techniques) to meet regional target occupancy rates, and maintain those occupancy rates, or the employer would be penalized financially and/or criminally. Currently, there are only a handful of urban areas that fall under the "severe" non-attainment classification. However, because the classification of "severe" non-attainment brings considerable economic penalties with it, cities currently not classified as "severe" non-attainment are continuously trying to find ways to reduce air pollution. Voluntary trip reduction strategies for work sites have been adopted by these cities as a way to control vehicular ozone levels. The specific problem that this study addresses is the problem of forecasting rideshare demand for the work trip to an employment site. A major employer in the Austin area of Travis County has expressed interest in developing ridesharing systems to curb demand for parking and therefore will be used as a case scenario for the application to innovative demand forecasting techniques
