Synopsis

Most books that deal with ridiculous behaviour in the workplace are premised largely on conjecture, anecdotes and limited data, but that's not the case with OFFICE IDIOTS. Written by Ken Lloyd, one of the foremost experts on jerks at work, this bookrelies on data from actual workplaces across America to present a sweeping and frighteningly accurate snapshot of the antics of office idiots. Based on thousands of letters to his newspaper column and Website, www.jerksatwork.com, this book spotlights office idiots wherever they exist in an organisation, followed by practical advice on what to do and even what to say when you encounter them. In addition to providing a vast array of hands-on (and hands-off!) tools, OFFICE IDIOTS will also show you how to:

_ Deal with the newest cadres of jerks, the Techno-Jerks and the E-Jerks

_ Deal with some of the most off-the-wall and absurd jerk-like behaviour in the workplace

_ Avoid enabling behaviour that actually bring out the jerkiness in others

_ Make sure you don't become a jerk at work!

The staying power of workplace jerks is legendary. Here's how to survive them!
