Review of Retail Memories: When Customers Attack by Papi Z

This book reminded me of my time in retail, which I’m still not sure is a good thing. There was a lot of humor in these stories that kept me smiling. I read this book for some laughs and I got it.

It was a little awkward reading the book. The author uses a first person perspective and the tense gets muddled when characters talk. Since the narrator is a character in each story, he would change from the past tense of descriptive narration to the present tense of dialogue. This jarred me a few times, but I got used to it once I figured out what was going on.

    I’ll get the ketchup. We’ll need a lot to mask the taste of Donnie’s Old Spice.

    We’ll have to marinate him. I suggest a Cabernet sauce.
