- Summary
- "The thing about work is that we love it, we hate it, we need it, we miss it, we measure ourselves by it, we judge others by it - we are addicted to it. Work often defines us and fulfills us. Yet, today's rapidly changing workplace environment is stressful and confusing to deal with. In 'The Thing About Work, ' Richard Moran takes a ground-level perspective on what is happening at work and how to thrive in the new professional world. Through funny, prescriptive vignettes and short essays, Moran finds the 'white space' in the company manual-- those issues that you encounter everyday at work but which are not covered in employee training. He uses hilarious and true stories from his own life and others' to answer questions, such as 'Should you take your dog to work?' and 'How late is late?' and 'What is that foreign object growing in the refrigerator?' This very contemporary view of work will prove invaluable for the modern employee"--Jacket.
