<strong>Uber</strong> <strong>Chronicles</strong>: <strong>Field</strong> <strong>Notes</strong> <strong>from</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Front</strong> <strong>Seat</strong> (<strong>Volume</strong> 1) (Jessie Newburn) Have you ever wondered what it would be like to drive for <strong>Uber</strong>? Have you ever been curious as to what kind of people use <strong>Uber</strong>? Where <strong>the</strong>y are going? What do <strong>the</strong>y talk about during <strong>the</strong> ride? How do <strong>the</strong>y behave, or misbehave? This is <strong>the</strong> book to read! Jessie Newburn’s “<strong>Uber</strong> <strong>Chronicles</strong>: <strong>Field</strong> <strong>Notes</strong> <strong>from</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Front</strong> <strong>Seat</strong>,?? <strong>the</strong> first in a series, answers those questions and more ... in <strong>the</strong> form of storytelling. Driving for <strong>Uber</strong> since early 2016, Jessie chronicles her experiences with each--and every--passenger, <strong>from</strong> <strong>the</strong> conversations with interesting people with fascinating stories, to <strong>the</strong> incredibly everyday, ho-hum-ness of people who just need a ride <strong>from</strong> one place to ano<strong>the</strong>r. But don t let <strong>the</strong> ho-hum-ness of <strong>the</strong> ride fool you. As Gabe Karpati, one of her earlier readers, says, “There is a relaxing magical quality to <strong>the</strong> way she writes <strong>the</strong>se stories. A sweet quiet zen silence that is shining through every line. Jessie presents <strong>the</strong>se encounters like a meditation, where <strong>the</strong> seer observes but doesn t get entangled.?? Ten different days and nights out driving for <strong>Uber</strong>. Fifty-six passengers. Fifty-six stories. So, come along for <strong>the</strong> ride. Join in. Listen in. And experience what <strong>Uber</strong> is like <strong>from</strong> <strong>the</strong> front seat of <strong>the</strong> car.<br />
