    About this ebook

    Real life humorous stories of people I have met in the workplace and family. All true and I know at least one will put a smile on your face. I put one story in this book to answer a question on a site called Quora. So far I have almost 700 upvotes. If I can put a smile on one's person face, then I have accomplished something as a writer.
