More DescriptionA guide to survival at the bottom of the hierarchy in today's high-tech workplace. With 35 years in high-tech, Lee Wellington describes how to cope with the crazy-making tech support gurus, the self-appointed authoritarians, and the perpetual threat of layoffs. Additionally, "Journey to The Dark Side" describes one employee's ascent into management, and her look at the technical "Bachelor Herd'" has a few words of sympathy for all those stray software engineers who can't scare up a date. In "The Tower Of Babel", she looks at how to cope when surrounded by a multitude of languages - none of which is English. In "The Verbal Diarrhea Twins" she offers a truly creative approach for dealing with the run-on talkers who can take a one-hour meeting into near eternity.
