About NonsenseAtWork
From the publisher's feed
Boost your career and success by learning to deal with the nonsense of pleasing a boss, playing nice with colleagues, making subordinates productive, and living a life. (Why should you learn to deal with nonsense at work? Because nonsense stops you from being successful. Nonsense is always at work. It never stops. That’s the bad news. The good news is that there is always some sense in nonsense, if you look for it. And if you are willing to look for it, time and again you will find that you can make the nonsense at work work for you.)
