Unbidden, in fluorescent rooms, cold-morning warehouses, care homes, classrooms, and sweaty offices, we learn what the world is really like - and what we're really like. Among much else - and much too late - we emerge with a crystal-clear sense of what we definitely don't want to do when we grow up.Book of Jobs follows the author across three decades and more than twenty-five roles, from school cleaner to care assistant, warehouse picker to teacher, office temp to corporate cog, and back again. It is a memoir of class, survival, breakdown, accidental beauty, and the stubborn need to create, even when creation doesn't pay - a portrait of working life in all its absurdity, exhaustion, and unexpected grace.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers4.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/9/79/827/705/9798277051931_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "14.72", "online_price" : "14.72", "our_price" : "14.72", "club_price" : "14.72", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
