Bondage, Gunshots and Mergers is an anthology of stories from life on the road as a PeopleSoft consultant. After nine years of getting lost in small towns, stranded in airports and abused by customers, Peter takes a humorous look of the trials and tribulations of a traveling software consultant. Handholding some of his customers through a difficult implementation becomes even more challenging after Oracle announced its hostile takeover attempt of PeopleSoft in 2003. "Bondage, Gunshots and Mergers" also takes us through the last nine years of PeopleSoft's company history through the completion of the Oracle/PeopleSoft merger agreement in late 2004. "Bondage, Gunshots and Mergers" is about the consulting life, the humor found on the road and the impact to maintaining a quality family life as well.
