Although this book has been around for a while and there are many variations on its theme, the message is timeless and well presented. Gilbert offers a zen or spiritual approach to dealing with an unhappy work environment. As a career counselor I work with lots of clients who are stuck in a job, and it just isn't practical for them to change careers. So how do you deal with it? Gilbert offers practical and straight forward advice on how to cope and even thrive in a less than satisfactory work situation...turning "lemons into leamonade." Warning: This book is spiritual in nature, so it may not be everyone's "Tao of Tea."

Matthew Gilbert's book "Take This Job and Love It" definitely saved my job and my sanity! To be honest, I hated my boss and he hated me--until I read Matthew Gilbert's book and it completely revolutionized my attitude toward my work and turned everything around! He's a great writer with a lot of valuable wisdom to offer his readers. Each page is packed full of timeless knowledge that can change even the worst work relationships. I highly recommend this book to anyone who seeks to improve their relationship with their boss and co-workers; and, in turn, create a more pleasant working environment! Thank you Matthew for this wonderful book that helped save my sanity at work, and make me actually want to get out of bed in the morning and face my job. Now I actually look forward to going to work!
