Summary: There's Some Good Stuff, But a Lot of Fluff
Comment: Scott Adams fourth Dilbert hardback book is not his best (the Dilbert Principle wins that one hands down). There are some very funny stories in the book, I was really howling at times. But there are times his humor misses the mark, such as his answer to Norman Solomon's anti-Dilbert book, which I thought came off as mean-spirited. Unfortunately, there are more misses than hits in this book.

Scott Adams has brought joy in the workplace over the past five years with his dead-on humor about the corporate business world. It has also brought him many financial opportunities, of which he has taken advantage. I say more power to him, I'd do the same. But I'm starting to wonder whether he should stop writing these full-length books and instead create some more comic books with strips that are outside of those that are published in papers. He's done this before and I think that is where he can entertain more people in the future.

Summary: Got Me Through Many Mondays...
Comment: No matter what end of the office spectrum you find yourself on, this book is guaranteed to be an entertaining read, to say the least.

In The Joy of Work, Scott Adams combines his satirical logic with first-hand experience in cubicology (the study of cubicle life) to prove once and for all how a paper-pushing life can still find happiness in a little box. From office pranks to ways in which one can get out of doing any actual work, Scott Adams shows us the ropes of office life.

Honestly, if you or anyone you know finds that getting up every morning to the same routine, working with the same people, in the same small, efficiently-shaped space is becoming unbearable or comparable to spilling hot coffee on yourself, don't hesitate to find relief in this book.

If you've ever asked yourself, "Where is this going?", "Where am I going?", or "How many more days till I can use another sick day?", read this book. I found the answers among the little black squiggles on these rectangly-shaped structures of white cellulose, and I think you can too.

This book is like Chicken Soup for the Cubicle Worker's Soul. (I wouldn't be surprised if that was an actual book...)
