In Things That Give Me the Redass, Bob Melka dissects and examines the absurdities that have become an accepted part of our culture. Built around personal observations and encounters spanning a career in consulting, he takes on stupid corporate and government behavior, counterproductive policies, the erosion of customer service, moronic rules and regulations, the hypocrisy of political correctness, and other systemic annoyances that we have been conditioned to endure for no valid reason. A world traveler and consummate story teller, Melka bombards, with equal-opportunity irreverence, major banks, airlines, hotels, the cable company, the phone company, technology, the Department of Motor Vehicles, food and beverage establishments, political correctness, and other inescapable irritants.. The universality of his experiences will resonate with anyone who can read, count, or is allowed to handle sharp instruments.Beyond its series of light-hearted adventures, the book serves as operator’s manual in navigating one’s way around indifference, ineptness, and the blatant lunacy we regularly encounter but have become desensitized enough to accept. Things That Give Me the Redass is a training guide on how to confront 'the system' and achieve remedy when 'they' are wrong and you, by all reason, logic, and sanity, are right.
