Wouldn't life be much easier if every person at your workplace was like you? What if they all just came in, did their jobs, and treated everyone else with respect? Hey, we can dream, can't we? It's a fact that most people, at some point, have had a bad boss and/or coworker. Dealing with lazy coworkers in many cases can be a very tough task. We've all got great stories about the annoying people at our office. In fact, it's one of America's favorite pastimes. But what happens when things go to that next level?

Tanya Michelle wrote a book called The Chronicles of a Hardworking Slacker, and it reads like a comedy. When that stuff isn't happening to you, it can certainly be really funny. But what happens when the lazy and annoying coworker is your coworker? Dealing with difficult people is an ugly, unavoidable reality for lots of folks in the working world. In Michelle's book, the stories are abounding. This is a book about those folks who can actually stifle your career instead of just making your day a little bit more difficult.

The world's full of lazy people many of whom might be working in your office. Instead of actually doing something to make them better, these people try to bring you down to their level and then beat you with experience. Do you have a good idea? A bad boss might take that idea, run it by his superiors, and then take all of the credit for it. Hey, that's just the way the game works, right? Annoying people will make your workplace a living hell, and that's what this book is all about. If anything else, it is nice to know that there are people out in the working world who can share in your pain. Misery loves company, after all.

Dealing with annoying coworkers is all about letting people run their course. Outsmarting the idiots isn't an easy proposition, especially when they outnumber the normal people by such a large margin. But everyone has to deal with it sooner or later. The lazy coworker and bad boss will strengthen your resolve, if they don't steal all you drive and ideas first.
