THE AUTHOR
READERS REVIEW MY BOOK
- Jim Durbin: The first three chapters define conditions where a person's career starts to head the wrong direction. They represent accurate descriptions of dysfunctional workplaces, not a harangue against former employers and co-workers.
- David Rothacker: The author leads the reader from identifying sordid workplace situations to methods of coping or improving one's lot.
- David Opton: This book is uncomfortable reading!... My discomfort in reading the book came from seeing a lot of myself in many of the scenarios...
- Jane Chin, PhD: I wish I had this book years ago when I was going through the corporate crap described in this book
- Paul Cowles: For those of you who still believe that you’ll be retiring with the company you currently work for, look around at the new reality.
- Yvonne Divita interviews David St Lawrence
- AlwaysWoW! says this book applies to Asia too!
- Michael A. Cleverly: I'd encourage anyone, but especially any former co-workers who might happen to be reading, to go get yourself a copy of this book ASAP. You need it.
- Dwayne Melancon: If your job sucks, this book could be just what you need to get yourself out of the pit of despair.
