Closure of the Helpdesk — A geek tragedy
A novel (General Fiction)

At once hilarious and tragic, set in Silicon Valley but devoid of jargon, Closure of the Helpdesk is a story of how America's workforce slipped from "nothing but the best" to "everyday low wages" right before our eyes, in one short decade.

Sam joins Bodega InfoTech around the turn of century—at a time when America led the world, people valued their work and people were valued at work. He is willing to sacrifice every waking moment of his life—and any hopes of a personal life—in his quest to "change the world," one buggy line of code at a time. And Bodega supports Sam and friends every step of the way—not just tech support but their lunch, dinner and even their laundry.

But when the funding dries up, the clients don't materialize and Bodega's future (and Sam's own) hangs in the balance, Sam has to find out who he is and what really matters. Could it be that George—Bodega's scheming, number-crunching CFO—was right all along? Are cold numbers more important than the hottest new ideas? Do dreams have a place amid a shaky economy and an uncertain future?

Put simply, Closure of the Helpdesk is a mirror to life if you are a geek—or a window to it if you are not.
