Monday Morning Feeling

A book of comfort for sufferers
Joep P.M. Schrijvers

It’s Monday morning, you can’t face work but, finally, help is at hand form the international bestselling author of The Way of the Rat.

The alarm clock sounds and wakes you up to another murky, grey, nightmarish week. Monday morning calls you to put on your corporate mask, relinquish your personality and once again morph into the ranks of office workers that sit beside you in the traffic jam. What to do? Roll over bleary-eyed and deny it’s happening or face it, head held up high, defying the nausea, dread, anger and despair that envelop you?

With dry humor and painfully insightful commentary, Joep Schrijvers guides the reader through the familiar universe of a modern office. Holding the mirror up to all those monsters that haunt our working lives, from the aggressive alpha male to the prattling busybody, he exposes the neuroses plaguing even the most horrendous office personas. As the origins, symptoms and progression of ennui and wrath Monday brings are identified, the isolation and alienation once felt are alleviated and the reader can sit back and enjoy a fiendishly accurate exposé.

Learn the mechanisms of the commercial ideologies that ensnare you into a feeling of self-loathing, and understand how to rise above them in this snapshot of twenty-first century office life.

JOEP SCHRIJVERS’ previous book, The Way of the Rat (Cyan Books, 2004), is an international bestseller. He presently works for De Baak Management Centre and has over 20 years of practical experience as a consultant, manager and scientist in the area of organisational change.
