Alan Review of 'How to Keep Your Job....'

What I like about the book is that it starts off with a list of things you need to do to keep your job. Without a lot of reading initially you can check off on the list those items you need to improve on. Then you can go to the detail. This is my kind of reference book. It certainly helped me understand what is important in the workplace and what to focus on.
