In this informational and necessary book, hundreds of gainfully employed young people detail their experiences launching their careers. They offer real-world tips and advice on looking for and landing a first job, doing well at work, and simply hanging in there. Their stories cover the gamut of work life — dealing with difficult bosses, weird coworkers, less-than-ideal environments and tasks, and climbing up (or slipping down) the corporate ladder, from those who have been there, done that, and lived to tell about it.
