I love zines about jobs, like Temp Slave, Guinea Pig Zero, and especially Dishwasher. I used to always look forward to a new issue from Dishwasher Pete. And with this new collection, you too can enjoy his epic tales of cross country dishwashing. The blurb on the back of the book sums it up nicely: "Dishwasher is the true story of a man on a mission: to clean dirty dishes professionally in every state in America. Part adventure, part parody, and part miraculous journey of self-discovery, it is the unforgettable account of Pete Jordan's transformation from itinerant seeker into "Dishwasher Pete"—unlikely folk hero, writer, publisher of his own cult zine, and the ultimate professional dish dog—and how he gave it all up for love.
