Reseña del libro "Working Terms: A Businessisms Novel"

Following in the footsteps of The Office, Dilbert, and OfficeSpace, Brian Scheirer's debut novel Working Terms takes readers on another satirical journey into the world of cubicles and status meetings.To get everyone on the same page, it may be best to first define the term "Businessism." You know those silly, often nonsensical, phrases used around the office like get the ball rolling, low hanging fruit, and synergy - well those are Businessisms. Now, imagine a whole story centered around those phrases. But, why stop there? The English language is chock-full of idioms, of all kinds.Utilizing this treasure trove of communication, Working Terms pushes the envelope of storytelling. Follow along with everyman Joe Miller and over-achiever Sally Smyth, as they navigate the twists and turns of a day in the life of modern office workers.Today they will try to take their careers to the next level with a ground-breaking new idea. See if their efforts amount to more than the sum of the parts or if their plan falls apart like a house of cards. That is, of course, if they even get a chance to present it to their boss. After all, he has an agenda of his own to climb the corporate ladder. All of this, plus, water cooler talk, status meetings, and more!
