Overview

Most of us don't choose a career; we take jobs to keep the wolf from the door. 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.
