Ahab's Palace is the hilarious account of a single day in the life of a downtrodden arcade attendent named Graham. Follow Graham through a wild shift as he is forced to square off against abusive customers, his wormy boss, a bevy of annoying teenagers, geeky videogame addicts, and an obese fast food worker named Sally.
This story is dedicated to anyone who has ever worked in a mall, clutched a fistful of arcade tokens, fought with a cranky customer, or suffered the tortures of a crappy boss. That pretty much covers everyone, I think.
