Insightful and hilarious

I was continuously entertained throughout this book and the account of Prioleau’s adventures were so well written and laugh out loud funny that I could not wait to get in the car to hear more.

The authors sense of humor is so clever and biting that I will listen again before the summer —bravo and I will check out his other book with high expectations —

Read it —you will be glad you did —Bravo!

Insightful and funny.

Fuzzies and Goo

I live in this working World despite my having a college education. so much of life is luck and chance and it doesn't take much to go down the economic ladder in this country. I think the author experience burnout in his professional career. I hope this is the first of many books that he has written. a book like this should be mandatory reading and listening in college campuses including the elite institutions of that train the leaders of our country and our world.

Absolutely hysterical!

As someone who has worked several of those jobs I can tell you his description and mental commentary is spot on! Thanks for making me literally laugh out loud.

This is a Fantastic read for anyone who has ever worked minimum wage, made it past minimum wage or has ever just wonder "how hard can it really be?!"
