Download or read book Ask a Manager written by Alison Green and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the creator of the popular website Ask a Manager and New York’s work-advice columnist comes a witty, practical guide to 200 difficult professional conversations—featuring all-new advice! There’s a reason Alison Green has been called “the Dear Abby of the work world.” Ten years as a workplace-advice columnist have taught her that people avoid awkward conversations in the office because they simply don’t know what to say. Thankfully, Green does—and in this incredibly helpful book, she tackles the tough discussions you may need to have during your career. You’ll learn what to say when • coworkers push their work on you—then take credit for it • you accidentally trash-talk someone in an email then hit “reply all” • you’re being micromanaged—or not being managed at all • you catch a colleague in a lie • your boss seems unhappy with your work • your cubemate’s loud speakerphone is making you homicidal • you got drunk at the holiday party Praise for Ask a Manager “A must-read for anyone who works . . . [Alison Green’s] advice boils down to the idea that you should be professional (even when others are not) and that communicating in a straightforward manner with candor and kindness will get you far, no matter where you work.”—Booklist (starred review) “The author’s friendly, warm, no-nonsense writing is a pleasure to read, and her advice can be widely applied to relationships in all areas of readers’ lives. Ideal for anyone new to the job market or new to management, or anyone hoping to improve their work experience.”—Library Journal (starred review) “I am a huge fan of Alison Green’s Ask a Manager column. This book is even better. It teaches us how to deal with many of the most vexing big and little problems in our workplaces—and to do so with grace, confidence, and a sense of humor.”—Robert Sutton, Stanford professor and author of The No Asshole Rule and The Asshole Survival Guide “Ask a Manager is the ultimate playbook for navigating the traditional workforce in a diplomatic but firm way.”—Erin Lowry, author of Broke Millennial: Stop Scraping By and Get Your Financial Life Together
Download or read book written by Con Chapman and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2005-02-01 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's difficult to recall how innocent we all were before 9/11/2001. As the year 1999 came to an end, the world worried that a single number-the "2" in "2000"--would bring modern life as we knew it to an end as a result of the problem that came to be known simply as "Y2K." At the same time the world of business seemed to be going mad; the internet bubble had not yet burst; men and women went to work dressed in casual clothes their parents wouldn't have worn to a garage sale; salaries for young lawyers fresh out of school hit $100,000 a year. A View of the Charles is set against this backdrop as four young people, Roderick Tribble, Melinda Pickels, Andrews de Groot and Sally Barnard, mix and match themselves within the confines of Rodman & Ward, an old-line Boston law firm that is on its last legs. John Rodman struggles to preserve the firm his Boston Brahmin father founded, while a rising generation of more aggressive lawyers seeks to grab the reins from him or leave with his clients. At the same time, Rodman must deal with the decline of his long-time partner Ned Ward, who is slipping into senility. A light-hearted romantic comedy, A View of the Charles will recall for the reader the way we were before the end of the last millennium.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who needs a man, when you have cats? An enemies-to-lovers sweet romance featuring a bundle of kittens and one grumpy cat! Juliet Connelly, manager at Furs Hill Animal Rescue, left the man she'd planned to spend her life with three years ago. He betrayed her, took her money, and lied to her, smashing her heart. She’s not willing to risk it again. Love is not on the table. Carlisle Danvers has spent the last six months hiding. His time as a successful actor made him wealthy, but at a price. His heart was shattered. He turned away from the acting world and sought solace in Saffron Springs with his beloved cats, away from fame, away from the intrusive media, away from everything, especially love. When Juliet and Carlisle first meet, she's convinced he's an entitled, difficult actor. So why does she keep thinking about him? All Carlisle wants is to retreat back to his home, his cats, and his quiet life, but the beautiful determined Juliet bothers him. When he accepts a patron’s role at Furs Hill, they find themselves thrown together, and he can’t deny the attraction between them. As they feed abandoned kittens, plan charity events, and learn more about each other, their relationship deepens and dislike morphs into something breathtaking and heart thuddingly scary. Will their blossoming love among the kittens be enough to stop them from pulling back and risking their hearts? Will they give in to their feelings and give true love a chance? This is a full-length sweet contemporary romance set in the frantic, fur-filled world of animal rescue. If you love happily ever afters, quirky animals, and swoony romance, this book is for you.
