5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommended, especially in today's modern workforce, October 6, 2007

This review is from: My JOB SUCKS and I CAN'T TAKE IT Anymore! HELP! (Paperback)

My Job Sucks and I Can't Take it Anymore! Help!: The Real-Life Job Survival Guide is a no-nonsense resource for anyone and everyone who hates their corporate job. Chapters discuss how to cope with globalization, how to rise above corporate B.S., survive a layoff, work a reasonable schedule instead of 12+ hours a day, and much more. "Even thought companies may publicly state things like 'work-life balance', many of them secretly want employees who will put the company's interests before their own. By the same token, do what you need to do for yourself or your family, but don't broadcast it. Your motivations and desires are no one's business but your own." Highly recommended, especially in today's modern workforce when corporations can no longer be expected to "take care of" anything other than their own profits, let alone their workers.

This review is from: My JOB SUCKS and I CAN'T TAKE IT Anymore! HELP! (Paperback)

I wish I would have had this book years ago.It could have saved me a lot of time and grief when I was an employee working at a corporate job.

I could relate to a lot of the situations in the book. The author tells it like it really is.

I'm going to recommend it to my friends who are still working 8 to 5 jobs. So many of them are miserable, but they don't know what else to do. This book provides some solutions and ideas to make it easier to survive as an employee in today's workplace.

Probably the most important piece of advice is to remember who you're really working for (yourself). Fortunately, I now have my own business so I really am working for myself.

Thanks a million for this book!

This is an excellent book! The book provides great tips on how to handle various work environments, from blue collar to white collar jobs. When I reflect on my own career, the author is right on with his comments on how to handle difficult situations on the job. This book can definitely serve as a guide to how to handle those difficult situations that we all now face in this very demanding and outsourcing type of work environment.
