In Help Wanted, Adelle Waldman brings her unparalleled wit and knack for social observation to the world of work.At a big-box store in a small town in upstate New York, the members of Team Movement clock in every morning at 3:55. Under the eye of a self-absorbed and barely competent boss, they empty the day's truck of merchandise, stock the shelves, and scatter before customers arrive. When a golden opportunity for a promotion presents itself, the diverse members of Movement-among them a comedy-obsessed oddball who acts half his age, a young woman clinging to her "cool kid" status from high school, a college football hopeful trying to find a new path-band together and set a just-so-crazy-it-might-work plot into motion. A darkly comic workplace caper that explores the aches and uses of solidarity, Help Wanted is a deeply human portrait of people trying, against increasingly long odds, to make a living.
