Bald and Bloviating
@$$hole Bosses & Backstabbing Colleagues
Mookie Spitz dives headfirst into why work so often feels like a slow-motion train wreck — and why the people around you are usually the ones going off the rails. Drawing from decades of personal experience to create a satirical expose worthy of The Office, Mookie breaks down what he describes as the four types of asshole bosses:
The Evil Superstar — a top performer promoted into leadership and drunk on their own importance.
The Clueless Bully — insecure, incompetent, and determined to cover it up by making your life miserable.
The Backstabbing Best Friend — overly friendly until the exact moment you’re most vulnerable.
The Passive-Aggressive Weasel — indecisive, defensive, and committed to keeping you in the dark.
And then goes on to describe their even worse counterparts, backstabbing colleagues:
The Manipulative Schemer — charming when it suits them, but constantly plotting your downfall.
The Chronic Victim — always helpless, always complaining, and always ready to use your sympathy against you.
The Condescending Dirtbag — armed with false confidence and eager to undermine you at every turn.
The Clueless Blowhard — loud, incompetent, and somehow still a threat to your career.
Blending candid storytelling with dry humor, Mookie offers a survival guide for anyone who's ever wondered, "Is it just me, or is everyone here terrible?"
Spoiler: it’s not just you. Welcome to the working world.
