Great Job, Sh!t Boss: A Playbook for Thriving When Your Manager Sucks

Great Job, Sh!t Boss is a practical playbook for professionals who are excelling at work but struggling under bad leadership. It breaks down six common bad-boss types - the micromanager, the ghost, the credit thief, the gaslighter, the favorite player, and the exploder - and gives readers clear, research-backed strategies for handling each one.Beyond naming the problem, the book walks readers through documenting their work, managing up, staying visible, and building a support network, then helps them decide when it's time to loop in HR or leave - and how to do each one strategically. Ready-to-use scripts, documentation templates, and a career audit make it a hands-on resource, not just a read.Written by Candice Maldonado, who spent 15+ years in HR and public-sector leadership, the book speaks to anyone who has ever wondered if a difficult job situation was somehow their fault. It isn't. This book helps readers stop absorbing the dysfunction and start taking their power back.
