On the Ides of March, our hero, Raleigh Whittier Hayes (forgetful husband, baffled father, prosperous insurance agent, and leading citizen of Thermopylae, North Carolina), learns that his father has discharged himself from the hospital, taken all his money out of the bank and, with a young black female mental patient, vanished in a yellow Cadillac convertible. Left behind is a mysterious list of seven outrageous tasks that Raleigh must perform in order to rescue his father and his inheritance. And so Raleigh and fat Mingo Sheffield (his irrepressibly loyal friend) set off on an uproarious contemporary treasure hunt through a landscape of unforgettable characters, falling into adventures worthy of Tom Jones and Huck Finn. A moving parable of human love and redemption, Handling Sin is Michael Malone's comic masterpiece.

This book will help you solve the problem of answering: 1) How do I work as a pharmacist if I have to or want to live in a specific geographic place? and/or 2) How do I work as a pharmacist if I can or want to work only certain hours of the day? Only a Unicorn Job, one that fits my place-bound and time-bound needs perfectly, would work well for me and many others. Traditional pharmacist jobs are fundamentally incompatible or unavailable for me to be a present parent and spouse and what's available in the market might not work for you as well. A unicorn job, however, is one that fits our needs for place and time perfectly. It's a career that leaves us money for savings at the end of the month, that doesn't interfere with our family and friends, and that produces excitement each morning. They need an investment of time, effort and energy from us, as well as from others. This book shows you not only how to get there, but connects you with the people and stories to keep you inspired along the way.
