Every year we spend hundreds of hours at work, don’t you think it’s about time we started enjoying it?
Have you ever considered the office anything other than a place of work? Perhaps you have trouble seeing through the boredom and frustration inherent to the drudgery of the 9-5. Well don’t worry, you're not the only one to feel this way and we have the ideal remedy for your disenfranchisement with the world of work.
Office Life is a collection of short stories which show that the office is more than just bricks and mortar; it is a location where intrigue, revenge, romance and comedy feature, all with a healthy dose of humour, sarcasm, wit and schadenfreude.
In this book you will find humorous reference to all aspects of office life, from the competition for promotions to the avoidance of the tea round, from the placating of the office pedant to handling (or not handling) the pressure of deadlines and office politics.
The stories contained within Office Life are about more than just a day’s work however, they are about the relationships we form with our colleagues and how it is possible to find humour and interest in any setting – even those of abject boredom.
All the office characters you know and love are there, the charming debonair heartthrob, the domineering she wolf boss and the ubiquitous office clown. There are even some office inhabitants which have a distinctly piscine outlook on the world.
We’ve scoured the globe for some of the freshest and most exciting authors to give their work the limelight it deserves. Ultimately, Office Life shows that even in an ordinary environment, the extraordinary can happen, whether it’s a rhino orgy, a corporate power struggle or a quest for love.
