kapelke deftly debunks the mysteries of several occupations we have always wondered about, but have been too afraid to ask. Once again, his esoteric and pointed sense of humor cover any "shortcomings". For all you aspiring Zamboni drivers, Kapelke and his intrepid gang's masterpiece will be your ticket to success!

Very clever

Nice Job is a pleasure to read. We gave it as a graduation gift to a few of our friends. The book is not just filled with "yucks" concerning these odd jobs; it goes further and specifically tells what skills are necessary to do the jobs. I found this aspect fascinating (along with the salaries).The book is a quick read. We got a kick out of many of the stories.Highly recommended.
