Story Time with Mack!

What do WWII, AIDS, COVID, The Great Recession, and Operation Desert Storm have in common?  We all have a view of the events in the light of hindsight.  How accurate is this?  Listen to this week's episode to find out.

The long-awaited book review is here, but actually, I thought framing it around my personal journey would be more effective.  So if you ever wanted to know how I got started, this is the episode.  AND, I'll tell you why I recommend Martha Beck's Finding Your Own North Star.

It's a jungle in here! Are you working in the cubicle next to a slob? Or dealing with a boss that everyone, except senior management, knows is deranged? With bosses and coworkers like this, the workplace can be a jungle! Human Resources professionals and company owners beat their way and trek t chop a path through the compliance foliage and undergrowth on any given day. For all of you who suffer, know that you're not alone!

In this episode we reconnect with our friend Norma Shirk to review her other book Psycho Bosses and Obnoxious Co-workers!  Take a ride through the funny side of workplaces. It's like a safari without the real animals just the ones in your office.

Companies fix things after they break or go wrong. In this episode, author and business owner Norma Shirk takes you on a journey through the often hilarious world of mishaps, where the best lessons come from other people's blunders.

Things Go Wrong lets you laugh, learn, and steer clear of common pitfalls as you explore, along with Ms. Camila "Cam" Flowers, Norma's fictional assistant, the roller-coaster adventures of small business ownership - a true embodiment of the book's valuable insights and everyday mishaps. Don't wait for things to break or go wrong; be prepared, be entertained, and be inspired with "Things Go Wrong!"

Fun one for this week.  If you have a pet, what would they sound like if they could talk.  Our readers respond!
