Manny is the manager of a local Red Lobster that is being closed due to low numbers. He is being transferred to an Olive Garden which is also owned by Darden Restaurants but only as an assistant manager. He was allowed to take 5 employees with him. Now he's faced with the last day of operation and wonders which employees will show up for the last day. He's surprised to find a mix of people who get to transfer with him and some soon-to-be unemployed showing up for their final shifts. A snow storm keeps almost all the customers away, but Manny still maintains his restaurant to his high standards. Even so, he has time to contemplate his job, his employees and his life outside the restaurant.
Thanks to booklover@KL for the original review of this book. It intrigued me enough to want to read it. Someone saw the title I was reading and recommended other books by the same author.
