Do you find your boss unappreciative, your coworkers annoying, and/or your staff hard to manage? Are you finding it increasingly difficult to drag yourself to work in the morning, concentrate on the job while you're in the office, and close the door on it when you go home at night? Would you be surprised to know that you're not alone? According to CareerBuilder.com's Life at Work 2004 surveys, there is an estimated minimum of 32 million workers just like you who are unhappy with their daily work life. One quarter of the respondents to the CareerBuilder surveys were dissatisfied with their jobs. In addition, 29% of men and 33% of women surveyed were unhappy with their work/life balance and more than 60% reported feeling "burned out." If you're one of these people, this book was written for you. But be forewarned: BE YOUR OWN BOSS is not a onesize-fits-all guide to chucking your job and successfully plying the job market or starting your own business. It is an exploration of a variety of positive ways that you can take control of your work environment and change it for the better. In BE YOUR OWN BOSS, author W.C. "Bill" Evans demonstrates and illustrates common-sense methods of transforming the job you have into the job you want.
