Book Description
How one is perceived impacts her ability to be successful. And success in corporate America is the goal. If Cubicles Could Talk Conversation for the Female New Hire in Corporate America helps the corporate professional avoid the office "clatter chatter" that goes a little like this: "Can you believe she's actually wearing that outfit to work?!*" "Could she have been more drunk at the boss's party?" "Somebody needs to say something to her about her body odor." "I can't believe she was polishing her nails at her desk!" "What's up with her always on the phone with her boyfriend?" "Why does she have such an attitude?" "Why does she act so helpless? Doesn't she get it?" Most corporate professionals have heard, made, thought or heard other people think at least one of those comments about someone in the office. Or worse, some corporate professionals believe one of those comments could have been made, heard, or thought about them! The point: perception is reality. The way a corporate professional behaves at work determines how she is perceived and her perception impacts her success. And so knowing how to act in corporate America is key to creating the perceptions needed for success. Cubicles offers relevant advice about how to behave at work, professionally, personally, mentally, and emotionally so that success is realized. The book is a complete resource for what it takes to win, and offers information needed to remove the frustration and "maze-ment" out of that thing called "work." Cubicles is for the reader who wants to: Strengthen her mind for the workplace Settle her wardrobe for the workplace Gain a solid foundation with the boss Manage her job description and her privileges Plan and build professional relationships Own her performance and manage her progress Mind her social manners Maintain her competitive edge at work Plan her professional future. The tone is frank and honest it "tells it like it is." Yet, Cubicles gives clear instruction regarding appropriate behaviors, dress, emails, voicemails, and overall business etiquette. In ten parts Cubicles maps out what to do to be perceived as timely, professional, serious, competent, loyal, trusted, ethical, composed, mature, a hard worker, a team player, and a real asset. Cubicles also advises the corporate professional on ways to avoid being perceived as late, inconsistent, immature, unprofessional, and a liability to the company. Additionally, it points out what things she could be doing to reinforce negative perceptions. For concepts that require more details and examples, Appendices are used for reference. The Appendix also includes a recommended book list and a listing of helpful Internet sites. If you are: Graduating college and entering a professional job Currently a new hire within her first 12 to 24 months at work An intern seeking permanent employment On the job but who suspects her perception is holding her back Already working, but feeling like she needs an edge Preparing to enter the workplace for the first time or again! Or if you are a(n) Parent Relative Friend Career or Guidance Counselor Job Placement Specialist Recruiter New-hire Trainer Mentor Advisor Manager Human Resources Representative ...and you know a female who is in the one of the above categories, then Cubicles is just the book to invest in!

Book Description
A New York Times Notable Book • Daily Beast Best Nonfiction of 2014 • Inc. Magazine's Most Thought-Provoking Books of the Year “Man is born free, but he is everywhere in cubicles.” How did we get from Scrooge’s office to “Office Space”? From bookkeepers in dark countinghouses to freelancers in bright cafes? What would the world be like without the vertical file cabinet? What would the world be like without the office at all? In Cubed, Nikil Saval chronicles the evolution of the office in a fascinating, often funny, and sometimes disturbing anatomy of the white-collar world and how it came to be the way it is. Drawing on the history of architecture and business, as well as a host of pop culture artifacts—from Mad Men to Dilbert (and, yes, The Office)—and ranging in time from the earliest clerical houses to the surprisingly utopian origins of the cubicle to the funhouse campuses of Silicon Valley, Cubed is an all-encompassing investigation into the way we work, why we do it the way we do (and often don’t like it), and how we might do better.

Book Description
Three overbearing sisters. One snoopy therapist. One doped-out flatmate. And six failed suicide attempts so far. Killing yourself should be easy, right? Pop a few sleeping pills, lie on a railway track and let the train do the rest of the work. Neat, swift, painless. Yet dramatic. What could possibly go wrong with Jeevan Raikar's plan? Well, this: a girls' night out happening at the graveyard next door, starring a vodka-swilling blackmailer and her dead mother. And so, Jeevan - who ought to be dead by now, mind you - is stuck with bubbly Mia, raging Tanya and sensuous Alisha. Which might seem like an enviable situation to be in, but for one tiny catch. They are all the same person. Me, Mia, Multiple is a debut that cares little for convention: a romance with a twist, a twisted romance, a romantic twister. Whatever you want to call it, you'll tear through it with sheer pleasure.
