True tales from the joe-jobs of an angry working stiff; from the cash register trenches of the American retail wasteland to the oubliettes of telemarketing grind pits,  a comedic journey through one mans dissonance with the punch clock.

Go behind behind the name-tag with interviews gone wrong,bosses given the finger, drug tests thwarted, resumes embellished, customers offended and the ups and downs of getting hired, fired, used, abused, subdued and unglued in a solo tribute to the plight of the proletariat schmuck.

Imagine... a Slam poet on cocaine... Or Dennis Leary in his prime... Or a younger, thinner San Kinnison... Or an angry pitbull that became a real boy... and you have a slight idea of what you will get from this fast paced, hysterically witty, master of the English language.
