Product Description
The average office will sap you of your lifeblood if you don't find a way to laugh through the pain. "Office Wit and Wisdom" encourages us to appreciate the humorous side of corporate life. It includes: a dictionary of management speak - find out what the boss means by "opening the kimono" and "putting some wood behind the arrow"; some effective lies for your CV including a 'Job Title Fabricator' to beef up your current position; embittered rants about office politicians, mission statements, presentations and meetings; some sobering true office tales, including the case of the GBP 60,000 fart; and amusing and insightful quotations about working life from the great and the good. "Office Wit and Wisdom" is a necessary tool for surviving life in an office, while retaining a sense of humour and the will to live.
