A light-hearted but effective guide to overcoming the plague of bad managers and toxic companies, by one of the UK's biggest and fastest-growing careers content creators.

'Annoyingly funny, phenomenally helpful' - Chris Donnelly

No one sets out to be a bad boss. But some bosses out there really do give it all they've got. One in four of us feel like we are currently working for our worst boss ever. That not only has a huge impact on our enjoyment of the job, but our productivity also plummets, which surely is no good for anyone!

The problem is, when you are stuck with a job or boss you don't like, you are given the same two pieces of advice; either suck it up or go off and find a new job, which costs you time and a whole lot of headspace, and costs businesses too!

My Boss Is a Moron is all about the third way.

Serial entrepreneur and content creator Ben Askins shows you how to handle a terrible boss, make the best of a bad situation and still come out on top.

Taking you through the entire lifecycle of work from job descriptions and interviews, to pay rises, promotions, annual leave and so much more, My Boss Is a Moron pulls back the curtain on why companies and bosses make the choices they make, and what you can do to give yourself the best possible chance of success.

With outrageous real boss stories and Askins' beloved sarcasm and humour, My Boss Is a Moron is as entertaining as it is helpful and is designed to help you sidestep silly company policies and terrible management to ensure that you thrive at work, no matter the circumstances.
