I enjoyed reading the comments at the bottom of the page.

OMG!!! I have to say I didn't expect those type of books. Some of them gave me a laugh....but some of them kinda worry me.:-3 I like Everything I know about women I learned from my tracter...that raises some interesting question, also the one about succeeding in the workplace without a penis! :wah: but being self employed myself I guess I've already done that because, I'M THE BOSS!!! :yh_rotfl :yh_rotfl

A companion piece to the one about breaking through the glass ceiling? I know which title grabs the attention more :-)

Being your own boss is certainly a good feeling. I had over twenty years of being my own boss and in another four months I'll be my own boss again - the day cannot come soon enough.

Congratulations Mr. Boss man. :guitarist Yes it is a good feeling to be working for yourself, setting your own schedule, no one else to answer to. As for the title of that book, yes I think it is an attention getter. :wah: But some of those books kinda scare me!:-3

Yep, the time has come to hang up my coding pads and templates and settle into a well earned retirement - sadly I've a long notice period to work through but I should be free by the beginning of July :-6
