"Read about 50 pages before realizing I'd already read it. Given the format (nothing other than e-mails), that I can't recall anything else, and that it doesn't seem to be going anywhere, I stopped."
"This is a wonderful, hilarious look at office life as told through emails. With all the backbiting, snark and misfortune one could imagine. A highly fun read. Recommended for anyone who's ever worked in an office!"
"I read this book, cover to cover in one sitting. I could not put it down despite laughing so hard I couldn't breathe. The whole story is told in an incredible series of emails and will have you checking "reply/reply all" very very carefully in the future."
