Winner of the William G. Bowen PrizeNamed a "Triumph" of 2018 by New York Times Book Critics
Shortlisted for the 800-CEO-READ Business Book Award The untold history of the surprising origins of the "gig economy"--how deliberate decisions made by consultants and CEOs in the 50s and 60s upended the stability of the workplace and the lives of millions of working men and women in postwar America. Over the last fifty years, job security has cratered as the institutions that insulated us from volatility have been swept aside by a fervent belief in the market. Now every working person in America today asks the same question: how secure is my job? In Temp, Louis Hyman explains how we got to this precarious position and traces the real origins of the gig economy: it was created not by accident, but by choice through a series of deliberate decisions by consultants and CEOs--long before the digital revolution. Uber is not the cause of insecurity and inequality in our country, and neither is the rest of the gig economy. The answer to our growing problems goes deeper than apps, further back than outsourcing and downsizing, and contests the most essential assumptions we have about how our businesses should work. As we make choices about the future, we need to understand our past.

read the fine print
Size: X-Large, Color: Black
I really need to learn to read the small print. That pocket line on the chest turned out to be a fake pocket and the actual; zipper on the sleeve is also a fake pocket; my bad but in my defense I'd never dreamed that anyone would put either on a shirt. Also my search term was men's "cotton shirt w/ pocket shirt" and it brought up this polyester wonder. But at least it fits well and seems well made.

High‑style look that feels way more expensive than it is.
Size: X-Large, Color: Orange
Okay, let’s talk about this shirt because I was not expecting to love it as much as I do. The Men’s Long Sleeve Polo Shirt with the quarter‑zip is giving premium designer energy without the designer price tag.
From the moment I put it on, the fit was chef’s kiss—slim, clean, and athletic without feeling tight. The fabric has that smooth, high‑end feel you usually only get from brands that make your wallet cry. But here? You’re getting elevated style at a totally reasonable price.
