Sh*t, I Need a Job! is a satirical, adult-themed children’s book that hilariously captures the universal frustrations of job hunting. Through the eyes of Bob, a disheveled and relatable everyman, readers are taken on a whimsical journey through the chaotic and absurd world of job searching.
From the overwhelming Jungle of Job Listings, filled with fake remote work scams and rejection letters, to the dreaded Interview Monster that loves grilling candidates with impossible questions, Bob’s journey is one we’ve all been on. The Land of Networking, packed with business card-wielding "professionals" and awkward small talk, only adds to his mounting despair. Despite the struggles, Bob’s resilience keeps him going, showing the grit and determination it takes to land a job in today’s world.
Told with wit, sarcasm, and a touch of profanity, this book isn’t your typical children’s story. It’s a laugh-out-loud reminder for adults navigating the grind of cover letters, interviews, and endless rejections that they’re not alone. The whimsical illustrations, created with the help of AI, perfectly capture the humor and chaos of Bob’s misadventures while adding a modern twist to the storytelling.

So grab a drink, flip the page, and join Bob as he navigates the wild ride that is finding a damn job.
