A humurous exploration and guide to succeeding in your career -without having to work too hard.
It's possible to have a successful career without ever having to be involved in a successful job or project. It's called "playing the corporate game" and today thousands of people out there are doing it. This book explains with wit, humour (and with all seriousness) how to win the new corporate game and how the mediocre can inherit the (business) earth.
The City Slacker is the ultimate "yes" man: he never challenges superiors and he always seems to put the company first. But at the same time, he is cleverly undermining the boss, because promotion and a payrise can't come soon enough. He will be armed with all the latest buzzwords, which will be rotated regularly to make him look well informed. Mature Slackers will be up to their necks in soft projects with high visibility (eg, redesigning the company's logo).
