If you worked in a kitchen, you've seen the life of a dish dog. You know what the the job entails and the little (tiny) perks it provides. Dishwashers trade some of the worst conditions and cleaning jobs you can imagine for the freedom to leave as they please.
Following 'Dishwasher Pete' through his travels is a very sweet and genuine story. However it seems that the real story is about growing up - Giving up something that has been your whole life's work, to have a life.
This book has an awesome Portland connection that I won't spoil.
Three out of Four Stars.
