Try Not to Suck: A Guide to Not Being A Problematic Employee

After twenty years in Human Resources across both government and private sectors, Eddie Ayryza has witnessed the full spectrum of workplace greatness, as well as the verbal landmines, hygiene violations, microphone level personalities, unsolicited personal sagas, political pot stirrers, and break room food decisions that can only be described as aromatic war crimes.

Try Not to Suck: A Guide to Not Being a Problematic Employee is the workplace survival manual nobody wanted to admit they needed. Equal parts comic relief and institutional wisdom, this book decodes the unspoken rules of office sanity, like why your coworkers don't want to smell last night's decisions on you, why "indoor thoughts" should stay inside, why emails aren't battlefields, and why curry is an after hours lifestyle, not a lunch break announcement.

This isn't about becoming employee of the month. This is about not becoming the reason HR updates its policies.
Whether you're worried you might be the problem, certain you work with the problem, or professionally tasked with managing the problem, this book offers clarity, self awareness, and the social survival skills that keep people employed and coworkers emotionally stable.
