The dreaded move from one gig to another is starting to feel unbearable. When a recruiter connects her with a contract position at AllOver, it appears to check all her prerequisites for a \"good\" job. It's a fintech corporation with progressive hiring policies and a social justice-minded mission statement. Their new service for premium members: a functional fleet of driverless cars. The future of transportation. As her new-hire orientation reveals, the distance between AllOver's claims and its actions is wide, but the lure of financial stability and a flexible schedule is enough to keep Teresa driving forward. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eJoanne McNeil, who often reports on how the human experience intersects with labor and technology brings blazing compassion and criticism to \u003ci\u003eWrong Way\u003c\/i\u003e, examining the treacherous gaps between the working and middle classes wrought by the age of AI.
