The Asshole Survival Guide

September 12, 2017

The Asshole Survival Guide

"Help, I'm dealing with an asshole! What can I do?"

Since my book The No Asshole Rule became a bestseller a decade ago , I’ve heard this question asked in a thousand different ways. The Asshole Survival Guide provides the best advice I can muster for people who are feeling oppressed, demeaned, or disrespected by assholes. I start with diagnosis—what kind of asshole problem, exactly, are you dealing with? Then I provide field-tested, evidence-based, and sometimes surprising strategies aimed at specific goals–avoiding assholes, outwitting them, disarming them, sending them packing, and developing protective psychological armor.  And I show readers how to look inward and to stifle their own inner jackass.  I wrote this book to help you develop an outlook and personal plan to help you preserve the sanity in your work life, and to stop all those perfectly good days from being ruined by some jerk.
