Part adventure, part parody, and part miraculous journey of self-discovery, it is the unforgettable account of Jordan's transformation from itinerant seeker into \"Dishwasher Pete\"-unlikely folk hero, writer, publisher of his own cult zine, and the ultimate professional dish dog-and how he gave it all up for love.For 12 years, I was the most prolific dishlicker of them all. From 1989 to 2001, I dished my way around the country, unwittingly searching for direction. From a bagel joint in New Mexico to a Mexican joint in Brooklyn; from a dinner train in Rhode Island to the Lawrence Welk Resort in Branson, Missouri; from an upper-crust ladies club to a crusty hippie commune-I washed the nations dishes. Whether it was a gig so lousy that I walked out within an hour or one where I toiled 120 hours a week, I remained a man on a mission: to bust suds in every state in the union.-Pete JordanA smart, funny, and surprising look at life, Dishwasher is sure to appeal to fans of Nick Hornby and Tom Perotta.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51526221758752,"sku":"NEW0060896426","price":12.43,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71VJbWTHUXL.jpg?v=1777187691","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/dishwasher-one-mans-quest-to-wash-dishes-in-all-fifty-states-ps-0060896426","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
