The curmudgeon's guide to getting ahead: dos and don'ts of right behavior, tough thinking, clear writing, and living a good life

Trama

Bestselling social historian Charles Murray has written a delightfully fussy -- and entertaining -- book on the hidden rules of the road in the workplace, and in life, from the standpoint of an admonishing, but encouraging, workplace grouch and taskmaster. Why the curmudgeon? The fact is, most older, more senior people over us in the workplace are closet curmudgeons.
