A whiney, self-indulgent view of an entry level job. Most of us have dealt with unreasonable bosses - deal with it or get a new job. This book is poorly written and leaves many loose ends. The plot (such as it is) is unfocused and highly predictable. But, given the predictability, why drag one's readers through several hundred pages to what we all expect is to be the ultimate conclusion, unless you have a darn good message to impart along the way? IMHO the movie was better - a more focused plot, no loose ends.
