Welcome to the home of the Thin Green Line!
A few notes of warning:
I worked at the world's largest book retailer for five years in the late 1990's to early 2000's and the book is based largely on my experiences there.
It is my hope that the book will be enjoyed by those who influenced it and perhaps some lessons learned by the customers and others who find themselves in bookstores and any retail establishment. Maybe people will finally begin to understand retail workers are more than just mindless cashiers or shelfstockers. They're people, actual and whole. More than you know.
The Thin Green Line is full of stories: some funny, some sad, some just incredible. I hope you enjoy it.
Thank you,
