<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>From an all-star lineup of contributors comes this collection of hilarious-but-true tales of being axed, downsized, booted, pink-slipped, and terminated. Soon to be a touring play and a documentary film.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>If you've ever been fired, you're in good company. That's what actress and writer Annabelle Gurwitch discovered when she was fired by her idol Woody Allen, who added, You look retarded. In confiding her tale of woe to others, she realized there is a world of people out there with similar laugh-out-loud experiences. How did Bob Saget learn he was being phased out of his job on <i>The Morning Program?</i> One day I showed up and my hosting chair was gone! <p/> A collection of anecdotes from people who've all gotten the ax, the boot, or been canned at some point in their lives, <i>Fired!</i> boasts an all-star cast from Tim Allen to Jeff Garlin and features contributions from people all over the country. Uproariously funny and refreshingly true, this book proves it's not the bounce that counts, it's the bounce back.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>A hilarious new book.
