About this project
Hello everyone! Have you ever worked a job where people are rude all the time, customers are crazy and oblivious and say things like "hey...do you work here?" when you've got an entire uniform plus a nametag on? Well then this book is definitely for you. Featuring over 25 true stories compiled from various crazy/weird/frustrating job experiences complete with an accompanying illustrations from the hottest up and coming indie comic artists.
The money raised will go towards the print cost of the book, without your donation there's a good chance I won't be able to get this book printed.
