Titolo: The Art of Asking Your Boss for a Raise Condizione: Nuovo Autore: Georges Perec Traducción: David Bellos Contribuyente: David Bellos (Translated by) Formato: Tascabile ISBN-10: 178478656X EAN: 9781784786564 ISBN: 9781784786564 Publisher: Verso Books Genere: Society & Culture Soggetto: Personal Development Data di pubblicazione: 17/01/2017 Description: A long-suffering employee in a big corporation has summoned up the courage to ask for a raise. But as he runs through the looming encounter in his mind, his neuroses come to the surface: What is the best day to see the boss? What if he doesn't offer you a seat when you go into his office?
The Art of Asking Your Boss for a Raise is a hilarious account of an employee losing his identity-and possibly his sanity-as he tries to put on the most acceptable face for the corporate world,with its rigid hierarchies and hostility to new ideas. If he follows a certain course of action, so this logic goes, he will succeed-but, in accepting these conditions, are his attempts to challenge his world of work doomed from the outset?
Neurotic and pessimistic, yet endearing, comic and never less than entertaining, Perec's Woody Allen-esque underling presents an acute and penetrating vision of the world of office work, as pertinent today as it was when it was written in 1968.
