Excerpt
Introduction: Oh no, another office party…
When you’re a writer with a day job, chances are you’ve already discovered the unspeakable horror that lurks in every office…
work-related socializing.
If the very words make you feel suddenly nauseous, take heart.
There are ways to sidestep that yawning pit of despair, and reclaim your precious time and energy in the process. To do that, you need two things:
1. A strategy (that’s what this e-book will give you), and
2. A timely reminder that jumping into the pit is absolutely not necessary.
So before we get into your new socializing strategy in the following pages, how about a quick reality check?
Read your job description closely enough, and you’ll discover that there’s a certain vital clause missing. Check through your contract under bright light, with a thick magnifying glass, but you still won’t find it.
Nowhere in your contract does it say you have to establish firm friendships with your workmates...
