Selling Ben Cheever : Back to Square One in a Service Economy
coffeecrisp avatar reviewed on


If you liked "Nickel and Dimed" you'll like "Selling Ben Cheever". Ms. Ehrenreich sums it up better than I can: "What happens when a gifted writer fails in the publishing world? He goes out and gets a job -- in fact, about a dozen jobs. Maybe Ben Cheever wasn't the greatest security guard, sandwich maker, or salesman, but he succeeds brilliantly at chronicling the absurdities and indignities of the entry-level workplace. I love this book and firmly believe eveyone else will too."
