Sorry, We're Going To Have To Let You Go.

Some careers have a ladder. Jeff Van Zandt's had a trapdoor. Sorry, We're Going to Have to Let You Go is the funny, wildly unpredictable, and somehow true story of a creative career-and a life-that absolutely refused to behave. Jeff has written for some of the biggest brands in the world, directed commercials and films, started companies, lived all over the place, chased ridiculous ideas, landed dream jobs, lost dream jobs, worked with celebrities, found himself in situations no reasonable career counselor would recommend, and accumulated enough stories along the way to make one thing perfectly clear: There was never going to be a normal version of this life. This isn't a book about getting fired. It's about saying yes. Yes to the job. Yes to the adventure. Yes to the terrible idea that might turn into a great story. Yes to starting over when everything blows up. And yes to betting on yourself when nobody else seems particularly interested in taking the bet. It's about success, failure, faith, family, reinvention, elephants, celebrities, advertising, filmmaking, questionable decisions, spectacular detours-and learning to laugh when life drops you through yet another trapdoor. Funny, candid, occasionally insane, and relentlessly optimistic, Sorry, We're Going to Have to Let You Go is for anyone who's ever been fired, rejected, downsized, overlooked, blindsided-or simply looked around at their life and thought: How the hell did I get here? The answer might be the best story you've got.
