The Coffee Grind

By Joel Klein

“The Coffee Grind” features an assortment of humorous, anecdotal stories which occurred in various establishments during the author’s 30 year employment in the restaurant industry. Also included, and in a similar vein, are stories of the writer’s personal life and his family. The reader may find themselves laughing at some stories and/or slightly embarrassed by others - if something sounds a little too familiar, that is. So, grab a cup of coffee (tea, bourbon...?), have a seat in your favorite chair and read all about it. The names of the people and co-workers mentioned in the stories have been changed to protect the embarrassed.
