Ivey Brown, You're Hired! (Hardcover)

My body is a manifestation of the effects of working at BX. I have acquired physical ailments that are quite advanced for one my age. At 21, I now have a bad back, wear orthopedic shoes, and have joints that ache in the morning as well as when it rains. My body has become dilapidated. Have you ever had a job that you hated? Has work hindered your plans for your life? Do you meet, work with, or work for the most inane and irritating people on Earth in your line of work? Are you tired of working for The Man? Are you The Man? Before you is a compilation of memorable incidents and people from the early working years of Ivey Brown. He began writing this book while working in fast food in high school. Over the following six years, he's been everything from a cashier to a manual laborer...and he's not 24 yet. In this book, you will no doubt find yourself, whether in dealing with the most absurd of customers who are Always right, or in doing the most mind-numbing work ever imagined by any regime skilled in the art of torture.
