    About this ebook

    Guaranteed to make you grateful for the job you have and thankful for the one you don't. From Saddam Hussein Double to Telemarketing Script Writer to the guy who operates the "It's a Small World After All" ride, satirist Justin Racz has spanned the globe to find fifty jobs worse than yours, so we can all feel better about our own. Featuring fifty color photos of the awful, the pitiful, the hysterical jobs out there, and all their undesirable employment details, Fifty Jobs Worse Than Yours is the perfect gift for anyone stuck in a nine-to-five grind who needs to remember why it could be a whole, whole lot worse.

    • 1/5
      This book was an utter waste of time. Terrible.
    • 1/5
      Effortlessly. Lacking anything informative. Untrustworthy. Terrible photography. Confusingly ugly graphics repeated endlessly. Absolutely nothing witty or humorous. Plainly nothing more than wastefulness.
    • 3/5
      Amusing and quick to read but the book isn't much more than fluff.
    • 4/5
      Amusing take on how things could be much worse then simply being stuck in a cubicle.
