Synopsis
A life-saving guide to 21st century corporate culture, this text provides incisive coverage of everything one needs to get ahead or to simply stay above water at work., Blamestorming (verb)--To sit around in a group, discussing why a deadline was missed or a project failed, and who was responsible Example of usage: "We don't want to get involved with blamestorming over this." True meaning: "We are SO gonna find out who's to blame." Circle back (verb)--To revisit or follow up at a future point in time. Example of usage: "Let me look into that and I'll circle back with you in a week or two." True meaning: "I'm going to drop this stink-bomb and hope you forget about it." Drill Down (verb)--To increase detail or further examine at a deeper level. Example of usage: "We'll need to drill down a bit further to fully analyze this data." True meaning: "I have no idea what these numbers mean." Flagpole (noun)--A symbolic device by which prevailing winds of thought may be measured. Example of usage: "That's a great idea, Mindy. Let's run it up the flagpole in tomorrow's meeting." True meaning: "That's a stupid idea, Mindy, but I'm not going to be the one to shoot it down. Let's make it a public spectacle." Sign-Off (noun or verb)--An official "okay" from a superior or co-worker required for a project to proceed. Example of usage: "We just wanted to get your sign-off on these plans before we move to the next step." True meaning: "We just want to be sure that someone else will have to take the blame if the shit hits the fan." If you work in any kind of office--large or small--the answers to these questions are undoubtedly "yes" and you obviously and desperately need Who Moved My Shovel'. A life-saving guide to twenty-first century corporate culture, it provides incisive coverage of everything you'll need to getahead (or to simply stay above water): - The Art of Office Politics--sucking up effectively, how to deal with control freaks and that annoying guy with all the "new ideas" - E-Mail Etiquette--responding to ridiculous requests, managing passive-aggressive messages, and how best to undo E-damage - Mandatory Fun--proper etiquette for office parties, the curse of Secret Santa, and undermining your drunken co-workers - Sex in the Workplace--how to spot video surveillance, telltale signs that others are getting it on, dumping etiquette, and the treacherous realm of sex with the boss, Does your manager talk endlessly about "engineering synergy" and "bridging disconnects?" Does the guy in the cube next to you eavesdrop and peak at what's in your personal drawer? Have you ever come close to "death by PowerPoint" as you struggle to stay awake in a meeting? If you work in any kind of office--large or small--the answers to these questions are undoubtedly "yes" and you obviously and desperately need Death By PowerPoint . A life-saving guide to twenty-first century corporate culture, it provides incisive coverage of everything you'll need to get ahead (or to simply stay above water): The Art of Office Politics--sucking up effectively, how to deal with control freaks and that annoying guy with all the "new ideas" E-Mail Etiquette--responding to ridiculous requests, managing passive-aggressive messages, and how best to undo E-damage Mandatory Fun--proper etiquette for office parties, the curse of Secret Santa, and undermining your drunken co-workers Sex in the Workplace--how to spot video surveillance, telltale signs that others are getting it on, dumping etiquette, and the treacherous realm of sex with the boss, By the best-selling author of The Metrosexual Guide to Style , a hilarious manual for navigating the many rungs of the corporate ladder

    I received a different version of the item that was advertised - but am extremely happy to report that Clarissa responded quickly and, once it was confirmed, issued a refund without delay. I've ordered from this vendor in the past: wonderful high quality books, & have always enjoyed quick replies with helpful information, great prices and fast shipping. Mistakes happen. Rock solid customer service is RARE. Thank you, Clarissa for handling the discrepancy so well. I'll def buy from you again!

    Once Upon a Time Books Inc is an eBay seller newer to me. I was very pleased with this transaction. The books were packaged securely, shipped promptly and are just as described. They have a large inventory and their prices are reasonable. They also reduce orders of three books by twenty five percent. I will be back to shop more at Once Upon a Time Books Inc. Thank you.
