Review (PDF) Bad Jobs & Bullshit: It's Unlikely That We Will Be Missed (An Anthology From The Geeky Press Book 1)
We have no clout whatsoever. We don’t work for a publishing house, we’re not hiding a printing press in a basement, and we aren’t part of whatever mythical body of old white men drinking scotch in a shadowed library determines the literary canon. We’re just people who have worked a lot of bad jobs, and put up with a lot of bullshit, and decided we wanted to hear about how that same phenomenon happened to others. If you’re reading this, it’s because you want to hear about that too. We think you’ll find the mix of essays, short stories, and poems in this collection speak to common experiences and make you feel less alone in your struggle against the grinding machine of entropy.

This appears to be a humorous book about the crappy jobs many of us have had and can never forget; however, after reading the well written stories and poems that are heart breaking in their realism, it is very likely that they will be missed. After reading some stories at night, often characters will be on my mind the next morning before coffee is made making me wonder about Ai Mei's life after Getting Fired from the Assembly Line, and how awful it would be Joining the 85% that Don't Survive.
This book is a blast, but...it's also got care, craft and insight between its covers. Enjoying it!
