32 Jobs & No Gold Watch Paperback – June 24, 2023

As a person who suffers from anxiety and depression, this book was relatable on so many levels. They say 'an idle mind is the devil's workshop,' and Christine really described how much that rang true in her personal and professional life. Christine pushed through her anxiety, adversity and depression and came out stronger on the other side. In spite of everything, Christine never lost her sense of humor or the innate ability to keep going. It was a fun tale through the ages, too, from the 1950s to present day. Her descriptive writing made it easy to visualize the styles, from clothing to cars to technologies in the workplace. I highly recommend this funny, yet honest memoir and appreciate Christine for sharing her story!

We’ve all had those situations at work. Where you just can’t believe this is happening. Which is why I found myself laughing out loud. I can totally relate to some of these madcap work stories that the author shares. But this book is much more than that. It’s an honest account of the trials and tribulations of life. It’s the hard stuff. The stuff you look back at with the benefit of time and wish you had handled differently. It’s real. And through it all, Christine keeps on going with strength, warmth and wisdom. I highly recommend this fun, quick and entertaining read.

Throughout the book you feel as though you really get to meet and know Christine! What a pleasure it was! Every time I picked up the book it felt like having a conversation with her while hearing about her experiences throughout the years, the good, the bad, the funny and the sad.

Such a great story of growing up in not the best of situations but learning to embrace all of your greatness and imperfections in order to find your own way in life. In a world where you think a degree is a must, there is no better degree than survival of these jobs and the challenges they bring

I greatly enjoyed Christine's honest, witty, introspective account of her career life, interspersed with her reflections on sometimes challenging life circumstances. I could totally relate to some of the workplace situations. 32 jobs, imagine! No watch necessary for this author; the memories themselves are priceless. Highly recommended.

This book tells the the story of the author’s journey through the “trials and tribulations “ she endured throughout her 32 jobs while weathering troubling personal events. She is empowered by her “keen” sense of humor as her challenges test her strength and fortitude. Highly relatable and endearing. A “must read”.

This memoir had it all, funny, sad, and touching!It made me think of all the jobs I had in my life too, good and bad, which made me smile!! I hope Christine Deeney writes another book, I will most definitely purchase it!

This book is a book from the heart. Christine is a real story teller and delivered with humor, although many heartbreaking stories. It's a fast read that everyone will enjoy. Highly recommend.
