When life gives you lemons, make lemon grenades.
Join Sam Davidson in a series of contemporary fantasy short stories as he navigates the most evil, pernicious, and unremitting form of management in the world: bureaucracy. From incompetent commanders to sarcastic sergeants, Sam learns the tricks of snark and style necessary to survive-and perhaps even thrive-within the system.
Inspired by the Simple Sabotage Field Manual published in 1944 by the Office of Strategic Services (declassified in 2008), this lighthearted Grimsworld Guide includes commentary on the original WWII manual by award-winning author and humorist David Hankins. Focused on the human element of resisting tyranny (how else would you describe bureaucracy?), he applies lessons learned and satirical perspectives from a career in the U.S. Army.
Surviving bureaucracy has never been so fun.
