Welcome to a tongue-in-cheek tour through the world of fast food. The story starts with the author's entry-level job at Chucki's Chicken, complete with his hilarious training session in Texas, and follows him to management level through transfers and job changes.

Nearly all of the marvelous characters remind you of someone you know, from his neighbor "Crazy Bill" to "Frankenhead," the not-too-bright character who continually pays for his girlfriend's biweekly "abortions." Gordo's guide to food service employees makes you nod your head and chuckle as you recognize people you have worked with. The chapter on the "ten things you should know before going into almost any fast food establishment" may tell us more than we want to know about these places. (The employees do WHAT in the pickles?)

The book is not without flaws that better proofreading and editing couldn't take care of. It is a short and very entertaining read that is by turns funny and sad.
