THE WORST-CASE SCENARIO SURVIVAL HANDBOOK Work

The authors promise a bevy of valuable information, which for the most part has limited application. How often does one really have to restore a shredded document, sneak out of a meeting (somehow crawling under the conference table and scooting out, unnoticed by all), or avoid a stockroom avalanche? The authors make no apologies for wrapping the meat of this recording in a lot of Wonder Bread, but it's ultimately filling, if a little thin. Though it's highly amusing to hear how one can avoid a lion attack on the job or thwart a lunch thief (think hidden jalapeños), this is certainly a gag gift more than a guide. But it's good fun.
