Book Description
I deal daily with incidents that would make your eyes pop and your mouth drop. All this as I work within a very ordinary retail sector. I am known as Hattie/Henrietta Duncan, a single mother struggling to bring up two teenage boys. Secrets of a Supermarket - (S.O.S.) is a collection of fact-based stories - some admittedly with slight embellishments - which Henrietta deals with on a daily basis. On her very first day at work, she is flattened in the car park by a naked man heading into the store. Her initiation into the world of retail is only the beginning of the hilarious and downright crazy goings on in her new career. Henrietta's apprehension turns to horror, when she meets some of the characters she will have to work with, realising they are even stranger than the occurrences that take place! Secrets of a Supermarket shows the funny, ridiculous, and sometimes sad aspects of working within a diverse team in the world of retail, an ever-changing, pressured environment. The interaction between the general public and staff creates myriad opportunities for things to go hilariously wrong. Just as Henrietta believes she has finally seen and dealt with everything retail can throw at her, along comes the biggest bolt out of the blue. About the Author: Frances Macarty, a London woman who moved to Surrey some years ago, has put together this book, a collection of stories from her experience within the retail sector. Writing has always been a yearned-after passion, and having completed Secrets of a Supermarket, she is now writing her next book. Publisher's website: http: //SBPRA.com/FrancesMacarty

The Secrets of Lost Cats
Author: Dr. Nancy Davidson, MD
Publisher: St. Martin's Griffin
ISBN: 9781250049780
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
You've seen them. Hanging on telephone poles and posted on supermarket bulletin boards. But have you ever wondered about the stories behind them? When her orange tabby, Zak, disappeared, Nancy Davidson did what countless people before her had done. She made a lost cat poster. And after days of frantic searching, she found him. Nancy was ecstatic. Zak seemed happy, too—although being a cat, it was hard to tell. Zak may have remained his old self, but Nancy had changed. From that moment on, she became acutely aware of lost cat posters. She studied their language, composition, and design. She was drawn to their folk art. Mostly, however, she was intrigued by the messages themselves—the stories behind the posters. It wasn't long before Nancy reached out to other owners of lost and found cats to offer empathy and support. They told hilarious and often poignant stories. They sought advice. That's when Dr. Nancy, the cat lover and the seasoned therapist, stepped in and offered insights brought to light by her shrewd, but never self-serious analysis. What they told her—and what she learns – creates a captivating look into the heart of our relationships with our pets and each other. For seven years, Dr. Nancy followed the lost cat trail discovering answers to a question that eventually touches all of us: What will you do for love? The Secrets of Lost Cats traces the evolution of Nancy Davidson's seven-year passion for lost cat posters. From the astonishing, almost implausible posters she encounters across the country—and indeed, the world—to the daring, dedication, and emotional complexity of the cat owners themselves, The Secrets of Lost Cats offers readers an absorbing journey that illuminates love, loss, and learning to love again, even more deeply.
