Publisher's Synopsis
Terry's life was one big rut. His career was in a rut. His personal life was in a rut. He paid no attention to things going on around him. Like so many people he was glued to technology; looking down instead of forward and around. Then one night there was an explosion outside his window. Not being able to fall back asleep Terry finds himself in a diner where he meets Clyde, the Chief Cook and Bottle Washer. But Clyde was more than just a short order cook, he appeared to be some sort of motivational guru - and Terry couldn't stay away. Over the course of a couple of months Clyde shares his business philosophy called the Double D Diner's Unusual Menu For Success. With each visit to the diner Terry becomes more excited about his work, his team and his life and finds himself removing all the ruts. Except for one. The one he needs to continue being successful. Chief Cook & Bottle Washer cooks up some inspiration and food for thought for its readers.
