How To Get Fired : Stories
Paperback Edition: 1
Stories about the unifying subject of work - how to get it, avoid it or lose it.
Mel's 'failing at a stupid, screwed-up sales job, selling stupid plastic shelving'. Her days at Pacific Wave Plastics are numbered.
Vic bikes through Christchurch collecting mementoes from the houses she has lived in, while her ex-partner Emma makes the decision to move to Auckland to work at . . . a plastics factory.
And so the chain continues- characters connect obliquely or walk from one story to the next, often oblivious to each other yet united by their daily struggle to negotiate relationships while they try to survive employment, or avoid it, or face getting fired.
