This book is meant to be a humorous meditation aimed at those who enjoy the humor of say…Saturday Night Live. I have been to Jason Headley’s website before and there are many funny short videos, stories and essays.
While the sentiment is basically – Shake it off – there is language that may offend some folks. I completely get the attitude though as many times, 98% of the time it’s at work, there are people you just want to shake…or curse….or wonder why you have given 29 years to state government and yet your experience and education are completely ignored on many important issues.
Whew – I guess that hit close to home!
The photos are lovely, calm scenes you would expect to see in motivational posters. The message is to take a deep breath and don’t let the bastards get you down. Leave the frustrations behind when you clock out for the day or when you have an unpleasant social or family engagement. I totally get it.
If you would like to check out Jason Headley’s website you’ll find more tongue in cheek humor, not all of it is R rated.
I received this book complimentary from Blogging for Books program. All opinions are my own.
I think my son in law and daughter need to read this! They let too much get to them.

I’m not sure I want to own this but it does look like it’d be fun to flip through. I love the calm beautiful pictures mixed with the language. It cracks me up every time!

I can say I wouldn’t have paid 14 dollars for it but getting it through blogging for books was great. It’s amusing,

Yes, ma’am, this did certainly catch my eye. 🙂 I love this and think it may need to make the rounds at my work (but I would have to put it in a brown paper bag!)
