" I'm halfway through and if I read anymore and she's done such a good job of kicking me in the but (not butt) that I cant read anymore until I do something! Somehow I think this is just what she had in mind... "
— Mark, 10/19/2013 -
" Full of useless information that really skirts around the meat of the matter. Don't bother. Probably made the idea of working from home for me less appealing. "
