DO YOU WORK WITH A MEAN GIRL?

A woman's field guide to the new frontier of professional development--working with other women

Women-to-women relationships in the workplace are . . . complicated. When they're good, they're great. But when they're bad, they can ruin your day, your week--even your year.

Packed with proven advice from two of today's leading experts in workplace relationships, this one-of-a-kind guide gives women the tools they need to navigate difficult situations unique to women-to-women relationships--whether with a boss, a colleague, a client, or an employee.

Have you dealt with a woman in the workplace who:

  • "Accidentally" excludes you from important meetings?
  • Seems intent on taking you down professionally?
  • Gossips about you with other coworkers?
  • Makes you look bad by missing deadlines?
  • Forms a "pack" of mean girls to make your life miserable?

Mean Girls at Work isn't just about surviving difficult situations. It's about transforming a toxic relationship into one that benefits and supports both of you.

This book is also for women who engage in mean behavior . . . but don't know it. After all, who hasn't gossiped about a female coworker? Who hasn't rolled her eyes in the presence of a woman she doesn't like? Who hasn't scanned another woman head to toe--which is just a nonverbal way of saying, "You've just been judged"? The authors provide invaluable advice to the more subtle ways of being mean--even if they're not intended.

With a workforce composed of a higher percentage of women than ever, workplace dynamics have changed. Crowley and Elster cover every conceivable scenario, providing critical advice on how to rise above the fray and move forward professionally.

Mean Girls at Work is your map to dodging the mines and moving forward in today's transformed workplace.

Praise for Mean Girls at Work

"An invaluable suit of armor for surviving nine to five "
--Leil Lowndes, bestselling author of How to Talk to Anyone

"If you think the emotional cruelty of comedies like Mean Girls and Heathers doesn't exist in the real world workplace, think again. In Mean Girls at Work, Katherine Crowley and Kathi Elster valuably chronicle female vs. female predators and offer solid defensive strategies."
--Ann Kreamer, author of It's Always Personal Navigating Emotion in the New Workplace

"Whether you are in your twenties and just starting your professional career, your midcareer forties, when you are supposed to have figured it out already, or a woman in her fifties or sixties who's seen it all--this book is a must-read. . . . The authors have finally given women the tools and the sound advice necessary to deal with . . . conflicts that keep us all from succeeding. . . . Carry this book with you to work every day "
--Carolyn Cassin, President, Michigan Women's Foundation

"A must-read for women of all ages in today's workforce. This book offers what we all need to develop the capacities to endure this ever-changing workplace. We know it is all about relationships and you need the skills outlined in this book to survive and thrive when the Mean Girls attack."
--Kim Harrington, Coordinator, Professional Development and Training, Office of Human Resources, California State University, Sacramento

A winner! Life size bunny that quacks.
It's the size of a real rabbit, and seems reasonably well made, and after a few weeks my dog hasn't exposed any stuffing. The ears have crinkly plastic in them, and the body has a duck-quack squeaker. My dog doesn't love crinkly plastic or high-pitched squeakers, but she loves this toy, and doesn't seem to mind that a rabbit quacks like a duck. My dog has shown a particular preference for this over her other stuffed toys, so I'd say it was a really good value, and would buy another without hesitation if something ever happens to this one.

Very well made and sturdy
Color: Carrot Orange
This toy isn’t quite indestructible but it is very sturdy and so far I’m pleased. I have a 5 month old who is a chewer and she has destroyed toys at a fast pace. It’s just the right size and weight for her to toss around, and I have thrown it in the washer inside a mesh bag once already. The fabric is soft, yet very strong. The only casualty to it was an ear. One had to be cut off once she had it partially chewed off. That’s a win in my book!

“Indestructible”? Not even close.
Color: Carrot Orange, Color: Carrot Orange
I bought this because it was advertised for large aggressive chewers and claimed to be indestructible. Unfortunately, that couldn’t be further from the truth. My dog destroyed this toy in about two minutes. Seriously. It took me longer to get it out of the Amazon packaging and the manufacturer’s box than it did for my dog to rip it open. Once he got going, the seams popped and stuffing was everywhere. Then I got the joy of cleaning up the mess, which took longer than the toy lasted. If your dog is actually a strong chewer, this toy probably won’t survive very long. I wish I could recommend it, but honestly it just didn’t hold up at all. Save your money and keep looking

UPDATE TO MY REVIEW / It's NOT indestructible!
Color: Carrot Orange
UPDATE: I stand by my review for the original "Plush Toy". BUT ... the seller contacted me and offered to help, because they don't want their customers to be unhappy with their products. I described the problem, and they said they'd contact their supplier to correct things. AND ... they offered to send another dog toy that actually was indestructible. My dog, a Border Collie - Retriever mix, loved the replacement they sent, an Orange Peanut. (He even took it to bed the first night.) This was much appreciated. But what I most appreciated was their Customer Service and Care. They don't just say they want their customers to be happy, they actually demonstrate it by their actions. This type of care is rare these days, and I commend them for it. Notice I've changed my rating from 1-star to 5-stars, this is in recognition of their Customer Service. To me, this type of care is more important than any product. So I now fully endorse this seller. If you have an issue with a product, just contact them (through Amazon), and they will do their utmost to make things right, and to make sure you're happy. ****************************************** I bought this because it was described as "Dog Plush Toy for Large Aggressive Chewers, Indestructible Dog Squeaky Toy" (from their listing on Amazon). My dog is a Golden Retriever mix, and he's only a "medium size aggressive chewer". And yet, this toy lasted 10 minutes at the most. Very disappointing ... save yourself a "dog toy heartbreak".

Not indestructible however not terrible.
Color: Shocking Pink
Not indestructible however not terrible. My strong chewer had quickly devoured the plush stomach and eaten the squeaker. But the rope parts and rough face pieces are holding up well. Not a disaster.
