60 People to Avoid at the Water Cooler

Summary: BRILLIANT!
Review: Aiello & Shultz did it again! This book is their 2nd book of brilliant (easy to comprehend written & illustrated) insight on the behavior of people you may encounter on a daily basis. I don't work in an uptight corporate situation, but i was laughing out-loud when i was reading about some of these coporate types (that i'm glad i'm not working with)! Brilliant!

Summary: Terrible book
Review: Dear Public,
This book is way too obvious - waste of money. The author and his friends wrote all the 5 star reviews for this book and his last.

Summary: funny stuff
Review: don't worry about the depressive from Wicker Park. take it from someone who's been stuck in a million dead-end jobs: this book is funny. yeah, it's not Joyce, but as far as humor books go, it's well worth the 9 bucks. not only is that 1-star review way off base, the "amazingly incompetent coworker" doesn't appear anywhere in my copy of this book. by the way, can there be anywhere more depressing to live than a place called "Wicker Park"? sounds worse than my office.

Summary: Lighten Up, People
Review: I just picked up this book at the little gift book table at my bookstore. Yes, it's sort of obvious, but come one...it's a book of little character sketches about the office. It's a gift book! It costs $10 and you put it on the back of your tiolet and flip through it once in a while! Lighten up, or write something better if it's really bothering you that much. It sounds like there's someone out there with a personal agenda to write these kind of reviews. I see them all over amazon. What's the point? Either contribute to the culture yourself, or just shut up about it, put the book down, and read something else.

By the way, I've never met this author or any of his friends. I did hear him on the radio recently, though, and he sounded like a nice enough guy.

The book is funny. Dont' let the crybabies ruin it for you.

Summary: Wicker Park
Review: I spent this past weekend very enjoyably in Wicker Park. I give it five stars. Eat at Jinx; drink at the Rainbo Room.

Also, I drew the pictures in this book. I hereby offer prospective buyers my ironclad guarantee that every last one was drawn with care, or at least with pretty nice pens.

Summary: Perplexed
Review: Perplexed by how this book got published. I picked it up on a whim without reading it as a gift for a friend who is disgruntled at her work office. What a mistake. It is really cliché. I assume it is supposed to be funny but it is completely lacking in inspiration. The names that the author comes up with to classify people are strangely literal like "the amazingly incompetent coworker." I recommend passing on this book. I ended up not giving it to my friend. I would have been too embarrassed

Summary: So true
Review: Picked this up at Barnes and Noble. It's hilarious. Man, if I could tell you how many dumb people I work with show up in this book...Aiello knows what he's talking about. Definitely worth the ten bucks.

Summary: another masterpiece
Review: The one-two punch of Josh Aiello and Matthew Shultz retains knockout power with their second collaboration. "60 People..." is a dead on accurate account of the people you encounter at the office. Aiello's wit and humor is carried over from "A Field Guide To The Urban Hipster", and Shultz's hilarious illustrations will have you saying, "Yeah, I know that guy". You'll find yourself rolling in your cubicle reading excerpts about the Alpha Chimp, Water Cooler Casanova, and the Gung-Ho MBA. A great read!!!
