Ever wondered how easy it is to fiddle your expenses, why you feel curiously ill at ease without your BlackBerry, or what the Japanese word 'Karoshi' means? Now you can find out. Forget endlessly surfing the web or wading through magazines. A few minutes with this book will save you an entire lunchtime looking for the answers to life's curious work-related conundrums. Where Do all The Paperclips Go? answers that and 127 other all-important questions. It has no graphs, matrices, formulas, dashboards or very long words to confuse you.
