Pre-order now for deliver in spring of 2024!
Previously published as Another Fucking Dollar, Coming Soon as Paycheck to Paycheck in Paperback, audio, and e-book.
It's finally payday! Part coming of age story, part critique on modern capitalism, part laugh-out-loud adventure, this collection of essays tells the story of one woman's work life – from chasing bears out of campsites in Yosemite, to serving popcorn in a smoke-filled cinema in Canada, to researching artificial intelligence in a British university.
In Paycheck to Paycheck, Nicole Danbom describes how her work-ethic was forged by having a spiritual, anti-capitalist hippy for a mother and a loving yet unstable father who lost his money – and eventually his life – to drugs. Ms. Danbom knew she had no monetary safety net and her grit and wit shine through in this collection of vignettes. She writes about working multiple jobs to get through high school and college with humor and spunk. Her experiences on the journey from childhood to working adult are relatable: toxic work cultures, micro-managing bosses, dysfunctional online application systems, remote interviews gone awry, and jobs that don’t seem to have any purpose at all.
Danbom’s essays will make you laugh, ponder, and possibly even cry. They will definitely keep you turning the pages. If you find yourself relating to Danbom’s work-related struggles, this book will offer confidence that you too will survive and cash that next paycheck. For all the aspiring professionals out there with terrible bosses, broken piggy banks, or workplace burnout, there’s insight in these essays for you. Take that to the bank!
“A humorous slant given to some difficult, sometimes weird, working situations; mixed with the kindness of others and dose of self-reflection. This book is a hoot to read!”
“It is refreshing to read a book that doesn’t care to mince the sometimes weird and outright bizarre incidents many of us actually cross in our jobs. As she clearly shows, the workplace doesn’t stop life from happening. Rather, our experiences and emotions come with us wherever we go.”
