This book is NOT about "The Ask." It is about a sad, middle aged man who loses his job and keeps thinking that his life in the past was much better than his current situation. The man spends much of the book lamenting his life, his decisions, and his past (which also sucked), instead of pulling up his bootstraps and getting on with life. Despite the excellent reviews and the title's connection to my job, the book is not funny or amusing. It is a sad, bitter ode to the state of apathy and disfunction that many people seem stuck on these days.
