False Eyelashes & Tight Jeans Got Me Sh*t-Canned at the Bean Cannery - Chance "Cash" Register Working Stiff series, #7

Life is a cakewalk for some. For many others it's anything but. As you may (or may not know), I have always appreciated blue-collar tales by those who have spent time in the trenches, whether it's Tom Kromer (Waiting for Nothing), Edward Anderson (Hungry Men), Bukowski (Post Office), Jack Black (You Can't Win), George Orwell (Down and Out in Paris and London), Lucia Berlin (A Manual for Cleaning Women); or even Jean Rhys and her melancholy woes of heartbreak and struggle that she experienced throughout her life and deftly threaded into her novels.
Granted, some of these folks maybe have lucked it at some point (just a tad). No matter. Because as far as I'm concerned, to a one, paid dues and knew what it's like to go without, what it's like to endure demeaning toil in order to make rent and put grub on the table. Yes. Exactly. False Eyelashes & Tight Jeans Got Me Sh*t-Canned at the Bean Cannery is #7 in the Chance "Cash" Register blue-collar series & is dedicated to anyone who has been there and can relate.
