Synopsis
From mom-and-pop general stores to big-box, strip-mall chains, it is impossible to consider the American experience without thinking about the buying-and-selling retail culture: the sales and the stockrooms, the shift managers, and the clock punchers. The Customer Is Always Wrong is a tragicomic and all-too revealing collection of essays by writers who have done their time behind the counter and lived to tell their tales. Jim DeRogatis, author of Let It Blurt , for example, describes hanging out with Al himself at Al Rocky's Music Store, while Colson Whitehead explains how three summers at a Long Island ice cream store gave him a lifelong aversion to all things dessert-like. This book not only shines a light on the absurdities of retail culture but finds the delight in it as well., A funny yet informative collection of essays by writers from all corners of the literary world. Not only does it shine a light on the absurdities of retail, but finds delight in it as well. If it weren't for the customer, the economy would not function. And for every abusive customer or moronic employee, there are people that come into retail worker's lives and change their course forever.
