I published my memoir called Falling to Minimum Wage Misery: How I survived the Great Recession back in December of last year, but in a few days on kindle from August 30, 2015 until September 3, 2015 it will be available for free. The link to the book is here: Falling to Minimum Wage Misery
The book is my view on working a minimum wage job after having once had a professional job like a teacher. My book makes fun of the whole culture of the big box store, and the problems that many people faced during the Great Recession. What makes my book unusual against a backdrop of many such books as these? I guess mine is a bit unusual in the sense that I wrote my book by themes. These were situations that arose again and again during this time period. In some ways it was also a study of the mores of the Big Box Store. I was a mental health counselor at one point, and I love to watch how humans act and react in different situations. I saw how this way of life differed from socioeconomic groups in our society. In other words, it takes a look at the caste like striation of American culture.
Enjoy!
