Product Description:
Ever wonder why the sales department never gets along with the accounting department? Or why some people always get a raise even though you deserve one more? It's because of their sun signs! This self-evident fact eludes know-it-all management, which explains why HR departments (a Libran invention) are always putting teams of incompatible astrological enemies together merely on the grounds that they all have Harvard MBAs--then they scratch their heads in wonder when the company goes into freefall.
Readers will find out who goes with whom in office romances (do we really need to ask what the Aries and the Scorpio are doing in that broom closet?), why Leos are never late for work and Aquarians usually are, why you should beware of the Gemini's explanation for missing a deadline (most likely a lie), why Virgos color-code their erasers, or why Scorpios despise Capricorns (duh, that is so obvious since Caps think they should be the next V.P. in Charge of Everything).
Darkside Zodiac at Work is the book for anyone who wants to find out how the rest of the zodiac intends to rig the market, move their cheese, steal their thunder, rain on their parade, sabotage their business plan, and generally ruin their workday (and how they can do it right back) then this is the book for them! They can always tell their boss it came free with the latest subscription to Forbes.
* The book identifies the zodiac's bosses, sticklers, mavericks, and slackers.
* Wince-causing resumes for each sun sign.
* At-a-glance career charts (for readers who'd like to think they have a career, that is).

Rating: - Intriguing Book on Astrology in the Workplace
This is an enjoyable sequel to Stella Hyde's Darkside Zodiac that shows how you can use astrology at work for fun and profit, but mainly for fun.
This is especially true for personal career management and it is here that this book offers a great many insights for workers.
At its heart, this is a handy reference work. It covers all kinds of "natural born" workers ranging from bosses to middle management to slackers and various points in between.
Perhaps the section ... Read More
Rating: - If You Don't Read This Review (and Cast a Helpful Vote), I Will Nuke Your Psyche (Per This Book)
"Most of us spend most of our lives at work, and what help do we get to survive?...accurate information is the key to success, so here is the skinny on what your work colleagues are really like, according to their Sun sign, so that you can defend yourself, attack their weak points, and predict their strategies." - From the book
I was pretty hard on Stella Hyde's first book Darkside Zodiac (can I use "been hangin' out with Brightsider New Agers too long" as an excuse?), but the gloriously ... Read More
