How the book begins

The opening scene captures the book’s emotional center. Johnny leaves his son Adrian’s soccer game at halftime to help a customer at Electronic Plus, even as Adrian asks him to stay. He later realizes that he has trained customers and employees to rely on him personally. The business produces income, but it also controls his schedule.
