Bad
management is like bad breath: everybody gets it sooner or
later and some suffer more than others.
If you currently work, have ever worked, or ever been
friends with anyone who’s ever worked, you know what we’re
talking about.
Based
on the premise that “Most managers think they are above
average bosses, but, in reality, most managers suck,” this
book will have you roaring with laughter as it satirizes
common management practices that drive employees crazy.
A
great read for peons and managers alike, it is both a riotous
examination of corporate life, and a cautionary tale of what
NOT to do as a manager.

Excerpt
from The Completely Idiotic Guide to Management for Dimwits:
“The
suggestion box is a time-honored method of motivating and
engaging employees by asking for their thoughts.
To improve process efficiency, simply cut a hole in the
bottom of the box and mount it directly over a trashcan.
This way, employee suggestions can reach their
inevitable destination without time-consuming management
involvement.”
