Salaire net et monde de brutes #[nn]

A wry snapshot of everyday working life, this 2013 Delcourt release from the creative team of Sébastien Marnier and Élise Griffon presents its premise with quietly deadpan humor right on the cover: a figure dressed in a full pickle mascot costume faces off across a counter with a small, unimpressed child, surrounded by mundane workplace props. Subtitled Chroniques ordinaires du travail temporaire — "ordinary chronicles of temporary work" — the book wears its subject matter with a knowing, self-deprecating charm. If you've ever punched a clock in a job that made you question your life choices, this one speaks your language.
