A humorous and candid look at the secretarial field from someone who's been there…
If you've ever longed to tell your boss just where to stick it, then here's a book you should definitely read. Cindy tells it like it is as she unveils the real working world of the secretary—a vocation where low pay, no seniority, disrespect, and a lack of appreciation are just part of the job.
Are you working for a tyrant boss? Do you have a nasty co-worker to contend with? And does your job have you wearing more hats than a model in a fashion show? If you find that your work environment has become a living purgatory, then take a long lunch break, sit back, and get ready for some laughs. You might even find something humorous about your own bad job experiences.
Flavored with lots of offbeat humor, this book is a candid look at the eight-hour workday through the eyes of a burned-out, brain-fried secretary. Hide it in your desk drawer and read it when you need a good chuckle or just a moment of inspiration.
