Predator Boss: An Office Worker's Survival Guide

The orientation video should have been a warning.Darren thought he understood difficult workplaces. Then he met his new boss. At Xenodyne Solutions, the coffee goes cold by the forty-seventh floor, the vents click after lunch, the break room has rules nobody will explain, and the executive suite is occupied by an eight-foot alien predator in a custom suit. Most employees learn to survive through silence, timing, and carefully deniable advice. Darren learns through documentation. Soon he has protocols for elevators, meetings, snack time, molting season, office parties, performance reviews, and the strange art of becoming invisible enough to stay employed. But as Darren adapts to the predator's domain, he begins to wonder whether survival is the same as escape - or whether every workplace has its own monster, its own language, and its own rules for those willing to learn them. A satirical sci-fi office comedy about bad bosses, worse meetings, and the terrifying relief of finally understanding how the system works.If you've ever sat through a performance review and wondered whether you'd make it out - this book is for you.
