I was fourteen years on the assembly line at General Motors Van Nuys assembly division.  From April twelfth 1976, till 1992 I was employed with GM (and fired a few times) as an assembler, repairman, absentee relief officer, leadman and finally a committeeman for the Local United Autoworkers Union, better known as the UAW local 645.
It's a story I have never put down to paper, probably because I have much to be ashamed of as an employee. I've never been a guy that likes to be bossed around, dontcha know? I think this is a story that isn't often told. I've never seen a book about the assembly line and the daily operations of a plant t5he size of GM Van Nuys.All Rights Reserved

Pole position // Charles Leclerc by EstieBestie016

Mia Ricciardo, the younger sister of f1 all-star Daniel Ricciardo, secured a surprise job managing the f1 YouTube channel, when her own videos began to get a fast following. She didn't tell her brother until last minute, and for good reason. Daniel worries for Mia's trusting heart in the hands of one of the boys, knowing that they could crush it with their bare fingers. But his warnings cannot keep her from doing her job, and ultimately learning more and more about each racer in each team. Charles Leclerc has the looks, he has the humour, he has the pick-up lines, but does he have exactly what it takes to win Mia over and keep her close for the rest of the season? Or will past relationships and old Vendettas come back to ruin his forever relationship. - 'Mia, I want you to come, of course I do, but i do not trust you around any of these boys and you're gonna be working with all of them.' Daniel sighed, pulling me into a hug and ruffling up my hair. 'Why don't we start with, oh my, I'm so proud of you!' I rolled my eyes. 'Oh come on, you know how proud I am of you, I knew you'd get it the second I heard about the opening. But now I'm worried about you.' He said, opening the passenger side door for me and walking around to his own. 'I'm 24 years old, Daniel, I'm not a child anymore.' I said, softly. 'You're still my baby sister, and f1 drivers are arseholes.' He muttered. 'I know, I'm related to one.' He nudged me, starting the engine and putting on his seatbelt, looking over at me silently, giving me the parent look he did all too often nowadays. 'You're there to do your job. Please, just do your job. I'd hate to go all mean on someone.' 'You can't be mean.' I chuckled. 'If anyone was to hurt you, you bet I would.' He responded. - I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THE F1 DRIVERS OR NAMED PEOPLE IN THIS BOOK. ⚠️-may be some sexual scenes, sensitive subjects and bad language.

Dan Barns: Problem Solver by mj_shadowrider

Book 1 of Dan Barnes Series. I am a single male with a degree in science and engineering. My name is Dan Barns, I was in the army for four years, worked in the private sector for five years with a six figure salary and was bored out of my mine. I grew a great nest egg, but I was not cut out to wear a suit and tie and then attend meetings everyday. I wanted so much more. I am six foot even, and I weigh around 186 on a bad day. My hair is brown with natural black streaks, and I have a nice tan. I love the great outdoors. I grew up as a single kid with a single parent who worked all the time. I aced science every time and fixed things for my mother and myself because of a lack of money. I never knew my dad, but once a year, my mother would get a check for my upkeep. My dad was a well traveled man and never stuck around after mom had me. Things were tough, but we made it. I got scholarships for my doctorate in both fields. I graduated as a doctor in six years. Problem that shaped me into the man I am today was, my mom died when I was 16 and I deicide to test out of school, joined the military, spent four years as special operative, and into college as an adult, I tested out of some of the easier classes. I kept the house because it was paid for and was in mine and my mother's name. I kept her truck, because it was also paid for and it helped when I need to remember her. I was twenty seven when I walked across the stage for my diploma and was sought after by some very big companies. I worked for one of these companies for five years and then I was bored. I retired at thirty one. I laid low, putting around my house, helping my neighbors, and helping out at the boys and girls club coaching basketball. For two years, I stayed in my own little piece of the gulf. I did not spend a lot of money, I fixed things, sold electric back to the electric company, and had fun with the teens. With the history now told, we can begin with some of my adventures.

My Feral by dearest-queerest-nux

It's the Max and Nux au that no one asked for. But, I write what I want! Anyway, this au is set in this time period because I am a lazy writer. So, Max is a doctor at his local hospital, pushing 31 with a habit of grunting in response to questions, and a bum leg that he can't seem to get rid of. Max is kind of a drifter, and doesn't usually settle down for long. But, after losing his wife and child a couple years ago, he's been in the same place for two years. Small town life is kind of boring, though. Max is doing what he loves, though, helping people. Then, this racecar driver named Nux ends up in his ER, smashed up from a bad car accident. Nux is....different. With buzzed-down black hair, robin's egg blue eyes, wicked scarification around his mouth and chest, he throws Max for a loop. Nux is a smart-mouthed, doe-eyed 26 year old that may or may not have a death wish. Just as Max is getting used to be getting called "Maxy," and "my feral," The rest of Nux's family shows up. Slit is Nux's older brother, and a single father raising his daughter, Furiosa. Furi for short. She is 8 years old, and missing an arm. It doesn't bother her, though, and her prosthetic arm is wicked it it's construction and functionality. And, even though Max hasn't been with anyone-male or female-since his wife passed, he finds himself liking Nux. And, Slit is another matter altogether. Max grew up around him, and had treated him a lot for various broken bones. But, even though Slit has these crazy scars on his face, and refers to things as "shiny and chrome" a lot, he knows what is going on. He sees and knows all, as he likes to remind the two younger men. And if Max ends up hurting Nux, then Slit and Furi will have him for breakfast. Max can't help but wonder what he's gotten himself into, but he doesn't mind. It's a nice sort of crazy, being around this ragtag group of people.

4*TOWN x Fem! Reader Harem. by _Just_Myah

As I drove to the studio, I heard news about the skydome being destroyed and people raising money to help rebuild it. But I also heard that there was a band helping with raising it, that was awfully nice of them. Maybe Dennis is going to ask me to help with fundraising? I don't know, but there's only one way to find out. ~*~ "I don't want to love them all. But I just can't help it." My breaths were sharp and quick. "Maybe you can tell me what makes each if them so special." Dennis suggested. "Well...Robaire's the best at perseverance, always trying his hardest even if it would kill him. And Jesse's an amazing father, he balances work and his home life perfectly. Tae...is the most adorable person I've ever met, he puts other people before himself." "What about the Aaron's?" "They may have the same name, but you can tell them apart. T always has a joke to crack when you're down. And Z may seem tough on the outside, but deep down he's as soft as a teddy bear, but he hates to show it." Dennis took a deep breath, "Y/N...I think we both know that you have to make a decision." I said nothing in return. ~*~ When your manager advises you to join the group '4*TOWN' to help boost ratings and popularity ever since the great pandapocalypse in Toronto, you get swept into international fame and you realise your feelings towards the band members as they get close to you. Which one will you choose? Only some of the media in this is mine, credits to Disney and Pixar. I just made up the story. ⚠️Note: this will contain profanity and lemon⚠️

The Leader Of Queens: Rewrite by PichuIzzy

"I never forgot you." "Neither did I." Friend. Many people spend their entire lives searching for that. A friend. Someone to share their life to, to tell every secret, every lie, every blessing, every curse. To have a friend, is one of the greatest gifts of the world. One that once upon a time, Racetrack Higgins had that. Once upon a time, Anastasia Redwood had that too. Until, one day changed it all. The word, once so understood, so familiar became foreign, and forgotten until... The Newsboy Strike of 1899... Welcome, to LOQ, take two. Filled to the brim with angst, adventure, and love.

GRIDLOCK - Lando Norris [BOOK 1 Gridlock Series] by cherrybloss0m93

I loved him, and there were times he loved me too. When the cameras were off and the lights were low, Lando Norris really did love me. I have to believe that otherwise what else do I have to hold on to? - Evelyn Verstappen was the younger sister of World Champion, Max Verstappen and widely known for it across the grid. Lando Norris was the biggest competitor and rival to defend the World Champion against winning another title and the Verstappen family hated him because of it. They deemed him cocky, unprofessional, a bad sportsman and a cheat and the topic of nearly every family dinner. Unfortunately, Evelyn felt very differently about Lando than the rest of her family. -------------------------- I watched you for so long that season. I watched you when I knew nobody else was looking and I watched you when I knew I'd be caught. But I couldn't help it. You were, in every aspect of the word, our rival. My brothers biggest competitor. My teams largest pain the arse. And there was a time there, a very short amount of time, that I thought I had you. I must of had you. Right? I didn't imagine it? The touches, the whispered words, the stolen glances. They happened. They were real? Weren't they? You said you loved me, and I believed you. But did you mean them for me? Or was it just a strategy to get ahead in the game? But I know I'm not crazy, I didn't imagine the feelings I felt, I didn't imagine the electricity. You loved me, even if only for a moment. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ALL EVENTS AND PEOPLE IN THIS STORY ARE FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY AND I MEAN NO OFFENCE TO THE REAL MEMBERS OF THE VERSTAPPEN AND NORRIS FAMILY. THE CHARACTERS IN THIS STORY ARE COMPLETELY FICTIONAL AND THEIR ACTIONS AND PERSONALITIES ARE FOR NARRATIVE PURPOSES ONLY --------------------------- * sexual content * mature themes * course language

FREELANCER. BOOK ONE of the FREELANCER SERIES by JAJordan7221

Back in the late 1990's a great PC game came out called FREELANCER. It was an open galaxy adventure space game that had a good storyline. I spent untold hours flying through space in this game and I always thought it was ripe for a spinoff side story but I never pursued it. Nearly 30 years later I discovered a website called GOOD OLD GAMES where you could find and download many great games of yore. There I found FREELANCER. So I climbed back into the cockpit of a starfighter after so long and have enjoyed it even more than I did way back when. Once again the possibility of a side story presented itself and this time I have risen to the challenge. I have always been an avid reader of SCI-FI and I will be the first to tell you that I have blatantly used ideas from other sci-fi works in my story. I have also used names of real people and places to flesh out my narrative. And as a warning for those offended by sexual content, I have included some pretty erotic sexual segments in my story, so you may want to close your eyes as you read those parts. If you have ever enjoyed playing the FREELANCER PC game, you may enjoy my story. Let me know. As a side note to the story: In the story there is a space station named Lajes. In the following books I have changed the name from Lajes to Freeport Seven. Sorry if it causes any confusion.
