Description
We’ve all had jobs we’d rather forget — few turn them into a book this honest. Jenn Sadai’s Dirty Secrets of the World’s Worst Employee (2015) follows the author’s crooked career path through every misstep, bad fit, and hard lesson. She always knew she wanted to be a writer — but life had other plans first: wrong jobs, toxic workplaces, and moments she looks back on and winces.
With disarming candor, Sadai revisits the mistakes she made as an employee and traces how each one taught her something she needed to know. It reads like a conversation with a friend who has seen it all: funny, self-deprecating, and surprisingly wise about work, identity, and starting over.
For anyone who has ever felt like the worst employee in the room — a reminder that the road back to yourself often runs straight through your biggest mistakes.
