naleagdeco's review against another edition
1.0
There's probably a reason why everyone loves this, but I don't personally get it.
It's clearly about the cultures at some kind of shitty environments, but I guess I'm lucky in that I never had to experience it. I don't enjoy any of the people, whether it be the crackpot managers with silly office metrics based on nonreality or the staff who stay at a place they don't enjoy but also sabotage themselves and others at any chance they get.
It reminds me of retail culture, a mixture of management arrogance/incompetence and employee apathy.I don't find it funny, just depressing.
I may also be too much of a software developer for the random barfage of terminology to anything but weird and nonsensical.
All in all, I'm very happy to not enjoy this book because my life sounds like it would suck if I did. I hope all the best for the people that enjoy this book, I wish I could change the world so that nobody had to be in environments like these.
