Have you ever looked at your company's employee handbook and had questions about your rights instead of all the company's rules and policies? Do you really know the rules for workplace survival and success? Have you ever had a question about what your rights are when looking for job, while you have been on the job, of after you have lost a job? This is your REAL employee handbook - it tells you what your boss will not tell you. This book is written by a lawyer with over 30 years of experience counseling employees about every day issues that arise in American workplaces, and is largely a collection of common questions and answers, ranging from the very basic - What can a prospective employer ask me? - to the more challenging - what should I do if I receive unfair discipline or suspect I am going to be fired? - to the ultimate - should I call a lawyer (and how do I find a good one)? A great gift for people entering the workforce! While you may have been given an employee handbook by an employer, this book is the real handbook that you need to succeed.

Ah, retail. It has lured in the best of us with promises of employee discounts (a sham), the "fun" of working with people (not so much), and flexible hours (dont make me laugh). What we got instead: cranky customers, sadistic managers, idiotic coworkers, and, oh yeah, the hell that is doing inventory. But there are ways to lessen the pain, and this retail handbook will show you how. Inside youll learn how to handle the crazies (both customers and coworkers), feign product knowledge, and make the best of working the register, all the while, of course, pretending you care. This book takes years of retail experience and condenses it into a guide that is as funny as it is useful. If you work in retail now, have done so in the past, or plan to do so in the future: this is the book for you.

Welcome to Corporate Life. The NEW Employee Manual is not your Dad’s or Mom’s employee manual. It’s the new playbook for corporate survival, fitting today’s realities and the challenges facing employees who join or work in large, seemingly successful companies. Those companies already issued very specific and detailed employee manuals covering everything under the sun except how to compete well in our brave new world. The NEW Employee Manual will help you navigate the Corporate (with a capital C) labyrinth. Where Corporate’s manual shapes you into a dutiful cog for the good of the machine, ours helps you enhance your career for the good of, well, you ... and your company. The NEW Employee Manual should make you feel skeptical: skeptical of empty slogans, obsolete rituals, obsessive pursuits, and bigwigs’ playbooks that no longer work. That alone should be worth this book’s price. Skepticism, you see, is a good thing, because it is only the skeptic, only the free-thinker, only the maverick, who asks new questions and finds useful answers. So, are you a maverick or a cog?
