He showed up early. Stayed late. Built a career the long way-through discipline, resilience, and decades of real experience. He believed what he was told: that hard work would lead somewhere, that loyalty mattered, that one day, all that knowledge would be worth something.
Now he's seventy.
And no one will hire him.
Not because he can't do the job-but because he can do it too well, too efficiently, too honestly. His résumé is ""impressive,"" his interviews are ""great,"" and yet somehow, the call never comes. The silence becomes the answer.
Unhirable is a sharp, satirical look at a world where job postings ask for impossible combinations, hiring managers chase ""culture fit"" over competence, and entire lifetimes of experience are quietly dismissed by systems designed to filter people out before they're ever seen.
Through humor, absurdity, and uncomfortable truth, this book explores the unwritten rules of modern employment:
Don't be too experienced. Don't ask too many questions. Don't remind anyone how things used to work.
And above all-don't get older.
Blending biting comedy with a deeply human edge, Unhirable isn't just a parody-it's a reflection of a system that no longer knows what to do with the people who built it.
You'll laugh. You'll recognize it. And you might start to wonder how many others have quietly disappeared the same way.
