On Your Own

Concise yet Comprehensive! Second semester seniors would definitely benefit from a course that utilized this book as the text to help them transition life with more ease and expertise. When conducting corporate training I am continually shocked by the lack of basic consideration of co-workers and elemental grooming in the work place. Author Jumper touches on all potential offenses. From now on the checks I give as graduation gifts will be tucked inside this helpful book that covers all that great instruction parents give that is not heard.
