    About this ebook

    The new generation of workers needs a new workplace manual designed to explain the particular norms, boundaries, and expectations of the contemporary office environment and help them navigate the cutthroat reality of a cubicled 9 to 5. Enter Stop Tweeting Boring Sh*t, a handbook of vintage-style public service announcements addressing modern office issues, including such gems as: "If you don't have something nice to say, e-mail it," "If it doesn't have a meeting invite, it didn't happen," and "Nothing good comes from hitting 'reply all.'" With plenty of revealing (and real) workplace statistics peppered throughout, this colorful guide offers just the motivation young people need to hunker down and get to work.

      Stop Tweeting Boring Sh*t - Division of Labor

      CHAPTER 1

      WELCOME TO THE NEW WORKPLACE

      OR,

      NOTHING YOU LEARNED IN COLLEGE WILL HELP YOU HERE, BUT YOU STILL HAVE TO PAY BACK YOUR STUDENT LOANS.

      The typical office is undergoing dramatic changes as employees embrace new technology and find more ways to waste time and avoid responsibility. Startups run by socially awkward twenty-year-olds with more money than the state of Rhode Island are also contributing to the disruption of the modern workplace. This guide is here to help you navigate the new office politics that sometimes feel more like high school than the engines of our economy.

      For those of you starting a new job, you will still receive a cumbersome three-ring binder from the Human Resources department outlining the rules and guidelines of your new workplace. But all of it was written by lawyers who are protecting the company in the event that you slip on the kitchen floor and hit your head while microwaving oatmeal or in case you get felt-up in the parking garage by a guy wearing driving gloves and a beret.

      Please be advised, the rules in the three-ring binder aren’t your guide to happiness on the job and they won’t help you get ahead in this world. Though they might help you find the phone number for your 401k administrator or the details of your dental plan. The contents of this book, on the other hand, can be quite helpful. And if you adopt some of the thoughts as your own and make it seem like you came up with them, people will think you’re
