Stuck in another meeting that should have been an email? Here's your escape route.
For almost 50 years, William Vukdivanov worked in large offices where the funniest jokes, cartoons and spoofs were secretly passed from desk to desk, photocopied, forwarded and hidden from the boss. Surviving The Cubicle gathers the very best of that material into one laugh-out-loud humour book for adults. It runs to more than 85,000 words and contains dozens of images.
Far more than just a gag archive, across thirteen chapters, each exploring a different style of comedy, you'll get a dash of history and examples from the genre's greatest performers before the actual jokes begin. Along the way are real-life office incidents, including the Christmas party announcement that nobody present would ever forget.
You'll encounter:
- Stereotypes
- Puns & Spoonerisms
- Double Entendres & Innuendo
- Toilet Humour
- One-liners & Quickies
- Scottish Humour (Scotch & Wry)
- Truths & Spoofs, including genuine TV bloopers, tech support calls and courtroom exchanges
- Marital Bliss
- The Joys of Ageing
- Politics, Religion & Education
- Irony & Satire
- Stand-Up
- For Adults Only
Whether you work in London, New York or Sydney, this workplace comedy speaks the universal language of the office. It's written for the 130 million people stuck behind a desk, battling micromanagers, pointless paperwork and the broken printer.
This is an adult book exploring some dark humour, but If you are of a broad-minded disposition who enjoys the type of comedy portrayed by the likes of Mel Brooks and Jimmy Carr, and you believe that humour can help to expose and ridicule discriminatory behaviour rather than focus on the material itself, then this could be the perfect funny gift for:
- Coworkers who need a lunchtime laugh
- Retirement or leaving presents
- Secret Santa and office Christmas parties
- Fans of classic British comedy, puns, one-liners and cheeky innuendo
Laughter reduces stress, lifts your mood and helps you cope with difficult days. Consider this book medicine for the modern working week.
So grab your copy of Surviving The Cubicle today and make your coffee break the best part of the day.
