I would disagree with the other commenter simply because in Wake Up, Sir! there are references to Ames' earlier novel The Extra Man. Nothing that would ruin the experience if one read Wake Up, Sir! first, just a little extra fun!

There is no bad place to start, since they are just collections of essays, so you don't need context or anything. I started with Assassination Vacation, however, and I consider that her best work.
