What do you do when the queen bee demands to know why you haven't written the report she never asked for? Or when the colleague who you thought was your friend takes sole credit for the project you worked on together?

But you can usually sense when something's “off”—particularly if you're completely stressed out and hate the job you used to love. Let's face it, ladies: there are plenty of nasty, manipulative, and destructive women in the workplace who fly under the radar while ruthless alpha males get all the bad press.

Dr. Fuller combines actual cases with tips that women can use right away to defuse even the worst situations. Readers will learn how to deal with the eight types of “mean girls” they might face in the office and find powerful reassurance that they are not alone.

Book Description

What if Life Wasn't About 50 Years of Wage-Slavery, Paying Bills and then Dying? Tired of sleepwalking through a mediocre life bribed by mindless video-gaming, redemptive weekends, and a scant paycheck from a soul-suffocating job? Welcome to the SCRIPTED club— where membership is neither perceived or consented. The fact is, ever since you’ve been old enough to sit obediently in a classroom, you have been culturally engineered for servitude, unwittingly enslaved into a Machiavellian system where illusionary rules go unchallenged, sanctified traditions go unquestioned, and lifelong dreams go unfulfilled. As a result, your life is hijacked and marginalised into debt, despair, and dependence. Life's death sentence becomes the daily curse of the trivial and mundane. Fun fades. Dreams die. Don't let life's consolation prize become a car and a weekend. Recapture what is yours and make a revolutionary repossession of life-and-liberty through the pursuit of entrepreneurship. A paradigm shift isn't needed—the damn paradigm needs to be thrown-out altogether. The truth is, if you blindly follow conventional wisdom pushed by conventional people living conventional lives, can you expect to be anything but conventional? Rewrite life’s script: ditch the job, give Wall Street the bird, and escape the insanity of trading your life away for a paycheck and an elderly promise called retirement. UNSCRIPT today and start leading life— instead of life leading you.

Before I knew it, Jason hollered in the cafeteria, Yo it’s ya girl! Leaving as quickly as he said it. I was on my feet, and out the door, TR wasn’t too far behind me. I couldn’t believe it was her and Tink. Tone was standing nearby and yeah that idiot was smiling. Girls can be so stupid. I tried my best to break it up, but after I got hit in the eye, I said the hell with it. Where are the damn teachers? Oh, never mind Melissa was giving it to her and giving it to her good? Well, that’s my friend! So rich girls can’t fight? This chick got so much mouth, though. After about fifteen minutes, two teachers and the Principal came to stop the fight. Weave was all over the place, and Tink’s boobs were popping out. “And if any of ya friends want some they can get some too; fucking bitch tell Mommy to get you some boxing lessons.” Ms. Jefferson that will be quite enough,” Dr. Glass said furious as hell. She was trying to pull Mel one way, and the teachers were pulling Tink the other way. Tink lip was bleeding; she looked drunk. People weren’t laughing; they were shocked by Mel, who knew? I damn sure did! You know it was really a good fight. Go, Mel, I thought to myself. I walked behind her and Dr. Glass to the office. Well needless to say; what I didn’t mention. Tone stepped off when he realized Tink was losing badly of course and he was on to the next just like that and who did he leave with his arm around, her friend Jenny, yeah rich, but definitely on the block.
