"Drawing from both pop culture and science, Charles Yu is an observer of contemporary society, and in Sorry Please Thank You he fills his stories with equal parts humor and insight into the human condition. A big-box store employee is confronted by a zombie during the graveyard shift, a problem that pales in comparison to his inability to ask a coworker out on a date. A fighter leads his band of virtual warriors, thieves, and wizards across a deadly computer-generated landscape, but does he have what it takes to be a hero? A company outsources grief for profit, its slogan: Don't feel like having a bad day? Let someone else have it for you"--From publisher description.

Sorry Please Thank You submitted by nemiller on July 17, 2020, 1:21pm These stories are very creative, ranging from realistic ones set in the not-so-distant future, to a goofy one set inside a stereotypical RPG. The stories have just the right mix of drama, humor, and thought-provoking questions. My one complaint is that his female characters aren't very fleshed out.
