There is no single, simple strategy that works on every jerk. They come in many assorted flavors: your jerk could be your boss, a coworker, your subordinate, a vendor, even customers.

Popular syndicated columnist Ken Lloyd returns to grapple once again with one of America's most popular (or unpopular) workplace topics, and presents his practical, upbeat, and professionally sound advice as an antidote. Drawing on e-mails and letters from employees and employers across America, Dr. Lloyd presents numerous examples of some of the most outrageous, classic, and current workplace (mis)behaviors - past and present - along with the most powerful strategies that readers can use today to deal effectively with them.

Jerks at Work provides a wide array of strategies to deal with all the jerks you come across. There are the time-tested classical methods for retro-jerks: the screamers, impractical jokers, ego-maniacs, complainers, and nonstop talkers. Then there are a new state-of-the-art strategies to deal with a generation of cyber-jerks that includes bullies, jerks on cellphones, and jerks online. Additionally, a new section, exclusive to this revised edition, covers some of the most outrageous workplace behaviors that one could ever encounter.
