Book Description
"This is a timely must-read for managers and anyone who has ever had to deal with a difficult coworker; it addresses a ubiquitous problem in a proactive, positive manner that should get the desired results." - Publishers Weekly Everyone has a “schmuck” in their office---a difficult, disruptive person who upsets the workplace, confuses coworkers, and causes concern. It’s hard to understand why schmucks act the way they do, but one thing is certain---they seem to come in all shapes and sizes. . . . - Narcissus---the condescending attention-seeker who carelessly steps on everyone’s toes - The Flytrap---the bringer of chaos whose emotional instability causes an office maelstrom - The Bean Counter---the orderly perfectionist who never gives up control, even when it’s full-steam-ahead to disaster - The Robot---the unreadable stone wall who just can’t connect Sound like anyone you know? These are just a few of the more prominent types of difficult people at work. In The Schmuck in My Office, Dr. Jody Foster explains the entire spectrum of people we may think of as schmucks, how they can decrease productivity, destroy teams, and generally make everyone else unhappy. Along with nailing down the various types, she looks at personality traits and explains how dysfunctional interactions among coworkers can lead to workplace fiascos. She helps readers understand schmucks as people, figure out how to work with them, and ultimately solve workplace problems. She also makes readers consider the most difficult thing of all: despite where your finger may be pointing, sometimes you are the “schmuck”! Let Dr. Foster teach you how to make your workplace a happier and more productive one.

Book Description
Myth: Painful sex is normal for women. Myth: All women and people with cycles have PMS. Myth: Your doctor always knows better than you. My Venus Flytrap Won't Open disrupts and debunks commonly misrepresented ideas and myths about "normal" female sexuality and sexual health, topics that are massively under-discussed and under-researched. Millions of women who struggle with a health issue or who are marginalized by mainstream culture from the sex positivity sphere are continuously ostracized. This book highlights why we need to stop accepting the notion that female reproductive systems and sex are naturally painful. In this book, you'll learn about: The history and limits of sex education and the sex positive movement in the United States. Perpetuated myths about female sexuality, sexual health, and pain. How physical disabilities and trans health are overlooked. The importance of advocating for oneself. Doctors who are making positive waves in sexual health care. If you have ever doubted your own intuition because a doctor invalidated your concerns; if you have ever hated that movies made sex look so easy and fun; if you ever wondered why you didn't learn that in sex ed... Flytrap is a must-read.
