    About this ebook

    In a world where customer service was delivered by postal mail instead of social media, one man dared to unleash his complaints on corporate America, armed with a single defective typewriter and a hoard of bad ideas.

    Letter Man is a series of bizarre complaints and suggestions to business about their products and services. What evidence of UFOs do the people of JIF Peanut Butter have in their possession? What conspiracy against the American public is Campbell’s Soup allegedly propagating? Does Elmer’s Glue support cruel and unusual punishment? Read the complaint letter, then discover how each company chose to respond. How many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Roll Pop? The world will finally know!

    Author

    Chuck Kucera

    Chuck Kucera is a non-author's author. His book, Letter Man, was never designed to be a book. After dabbling in stand-up comedy, Chuck began writing funny and outrageous letters to companies with various complaints. This was done primarily for the amusement of himself and friends. Eventually, he wrote over 70 letters, and compiled them, along with the responses he received, into what became Letter Man.
