If you're like me (I'm sorry) and find typical business books a quick trip to snoozeville, but also have a quick wit and tell jokes that are sometimes funny only to you, check out this quick read.Sidebar: I have more than a few team members who are Hindu. If you are one of them and reading this...well, I guess I'm fired. :-)
My favorite sections were: 1) Only hire people who have done the job before. and 2) Everyone deserves a second chance.
My company, like most, have herd upon herd upon herd of sacred cows. One of my favorites is, you can't fly above economy class unless you're a director. I recently sent one of my team members to India for a month. Because he didn't have uber-director status, he couldn't get a direct flight on a slightly better (not business class by any means) class of a ticket.
If you're mad as hell and aren't going to take it anymore this book will help you recognize and assassinate those sacred cows that get in the way of those of us who want to get the job done, regardless of the rules.
