First Person: Funeral Home Director // Telemarketer – Human Voices Wake Us
An episode from 3/8/2022: Here are two readings from Gig: Americans Talk About Their Jobs.
- Beverly Valentine, Funeral Home Director
- Jason Groth, Telemarketing Group Supervisor
I have particular affection for the second one, since I spent some time as a telemarketer back in the summer and fall of 2004. Gig is a really great book of its kind, a good follow up to Studs Terkel’s Working. Does anyone know of a more recent book like it?
Any comments, or suggestions for readings I should make in later episodes, can be emailed to humanvoiceswakeus1@gmail.com.
