Like A Dog: A Memoir,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Vincent Francones Like a Dog, as in Work like a dog, is a great read. A working class guy who comes up on the South Side of Chicago and moves north in a quest a better life, Francone takes us on a dazzling tour of minimum wage America over the last couple of decades. Hes has done it all; Ive tried telemarketing, copy writing, editing; I managed a courier center, I conducted background checks on potential healthcare employees, and worked in a stock room. . . . And thats before he goes to university and winds up, like so many other academics today, as a parttime instructor in a string of economically stressed public colleges. Francones descriptions of boring and souldestroying work, the places where its done, and the people who do it are beautifully written, wildl entertaining, deeply poignant, and mysteriously inspiring. This is what its like to be alive in these times, Like a Dog insists, this is the battlefield of everyday life. These are your adversaries: mindless repetitive work, bored and boring coworkers, feckless bosses, plus your own inclination to work as little as possible, spend every penny you earn right away, and escape from bad job to bad job, without ever climbing any ladder that might lead to better paid if equally meaningless work. Best of all, this postindustrial odyssey down mean streets and corridors to mean offices and classrooms, dingy apartments, and dead end bars is full of gritty life. Francone is a gifted story teller with a great, street smart voice. His protagonists and characters are brilliantly drawn.. And in their bafflement and selfdestructive resistance to the work regieme that claims them they press back in an utterly realistic way against our recessionbred equation of employment, almost any employment, with salvation.
