Will save the galaxy for food and Will destroy the galaxy for cash by Yahtzee Croshaw. An unemployed star pilot tries to get by in a universe where transporters are a thing. Less staring a new job, more having their old job obliterated by new technology.

I have 2 but I have to admit I haven’t read either of them yet- they’re on my To Read list though and they look great!
The Factory by Hiroko Oyamada
There’s No Such Thing as an Easy Job by Kikuko Tsumura

Now Wait For Last Year by Philip K Dick. The main character switches employers early on in the novel and things get very very weird from there.
