5.0 out of 5 stars Good book to help you negotiate the slippery slope, February 7, 2001

By	George (Dayton, Ohio) - See all my reviews

Author Tobias guides the reader through that awful experience of losing a job. Employees sometimes need to know what there rights are, and this book helps. Useful for me as I negotiated severance and letters of recommendation...something that my employer really didn't want to do.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Very Informative Book, January 4, 2000

By A Customer

This book is excellent. A great help for those who have recently been fired from a job or who are expecting to get the axe. I especially felt that the chapters on negotiating a separation package were useful.
