Taxing, indeed

I just finished this book last night. It was an interesting look at the life of an IRS Revenue Officer (tax collector), and the kinds of things they face while collecting from people who owe the IRS money. I would have enjoyed this book more if the author dealt more with his job than his personal life. In fact, the personal parts commandeer the book in the last few pages which is too bad, because his personal life isn't all that interesting. I sure wasn't reading the book to find out how much he loved his supervisor, or to find out how hitting a dog changed his outlook on life. The book goes from semi-interesting in the first half to downright strange in the last half. I'd only recommend this book to people who love memoirs.
