Working Wounded is for anyone who has lived in a cubicle, slaved away in the corner, or swept the shop floor. Straight from Rosner's syndicated column come these hilarious remedies for dealing with common work ailments. Illustrated by cartoonist Robert Mankoff of "The New Yorker".
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Syndicated columnist Rosner presents a cornucopia of information on the world of business that doles out advice on coping with colleagues, bosses, employees, dead-end jobs, switching companies, performance pressures, health, technology and being axed. The text is enlivened with sidebars, quotes from sources as varied as Plato, Charles de Gaulle and Satchel Paige, results of polls the author has conducted among workers and short quizzes. Added attractions include witty contributions by New Yorker cartoonist Robert Mankoff (e.g., boss to underling, "It's your job to dream of things that never were and ask, `Why not?' and it's my job to tell you"). The quotes reinforce Rosner's overall message that job difficulties can be managed, although, on some occasions, he advises, it just may be better to bow out. There is never a dull moment from start to finish.
