520    Louise Carnachan has helped thousands of people thrive at 
       work by improving relationships with their colleagues; 
       here, she provides concrete, actionable steps to deal with
       an array of problematic coworkers. 
520    "If you're stressed and unhappy because of problems with a
       boss or colleague, you pay a price. Not only can your 
       mental and physical health suffer, your nearest and 
       dearest get sick of hearing about it. Going to bed angry 
       and waking up only to dread a new workday is a terrible 
       way to live.  Remote work may have lessened the impact of 
       annoying colleagues for a while, but they can still find 
       ways to irritate. If you're co-located, the "mute" and 
       "stop video" buttons don't exist to diminish your 
       exasperation. Not all jerks are the same; the person you 
       find to be a nightmare may be perfectly acceptable to 
       others. And, astonishingly, someone else may even think 
       you're the jerk!  Author Louise Carnachan has the 
       credentials and experience to make her an expert in this 
       area, but more importantly, she's been in the trenches 
       herself. With an emphasis on the positive actions you can 
       take while being attentive to your specific situation, 
       Work Jerks provides practical advice on how to deal with a
       variety of problematic coworkers--whether in-person or 
       remotely--so work can stop being something you dread and 
       start being something you enjoy." -- Amazon.com.
