This is a book that all office workers should own! It is a comical foray into the life of office workers everywhere. McEwen uses tongue in cheek comedy to impart advice and yes, bits of wisdom as well! There are 107 exercises to relieve the boredom suffered by office workers. Each exercise will leave you laughing and yet, you will want to actually try these! There are many ways suggested to relax as well.
This is a very uplifting book. I thoroughly enjoyed reading and imagining these tactics! I am an ex-office worker and I can assure you that I probably would have lasted longer if I had these tidbits of comedic wisdom at my disposal.
Whether you fancy the sedentary "paper clip jewelery" exercise, or the more active "parking lot cigarette butt pick-up" exercise, you will definitely find something to suit your tastes. And the wisdom found in these exercises will make you think on a deeper level, thereby increasing your ability to stay focused at work! For example: "It takes courage to be a little crazy. It requires courage to get in touch with your true self, and to express who and what you really are. Have you got a little courage?" Have you ever considered that?
This is a survival manual for everyone, no matter where you work. It can be adapted to fit your environment and will provide you with limitless entertainment value and water cooler topics for quite a while! And as an added bonus you will receive nuggets of wisdom embedded in the exercises.
I received this book as a gift from the author. It was not given to solicit a favorable review. The review is my honest opinion of this authors work.
