The Curmudgeon's Guide To Getting Ahead by Charles Murray
Dos and Don'ts of Right Behavior, Tough Thinking, Clear Writing, and Living a Good Life
A witty, pragmatic handbook of blunt, commonsense rules for career and personal success that combines short aphorisms, anecdotes, and pointed advice to encourage competence, responsibility, and moral courage; it stresses clear thinking and writing, professional demeanor (punctuality, appropriate dress, decisiveness), honest communication, cultivating useful contacts over schmoozing, avoiding jargon and entitlement, and taking ownership of one’s work to get ahead in life and the workplace.
