Greetings,
What happens when an honest but bored, frustrated, inexperienced and unexpectedly-promoted office worker in a multinational company tries to cope with novel business and social challenges? The answer can be found in this funny business book which is aworthy addition to fiction about the office and the outside world. It will remind readers of humorous incidents in their own business and private lives.
ABOUT THIS FUNNY BUSINESS BOOK
Millions work in offices but few books reflect office humour, management
incompetence, eccentricities, inept big company behaviour and the odd world in which they operate.

'WITH IMMEDIATE EFFECT' a satire on office life, business and 
today’s strange world, fills this gap and this humorous book also
takes a wry and often politically-incorrect look at smug politicians,
weather forecasts, acronyms, tabloid newspapers, supermarkets,
job advertisements, taxi drivers, management greed, gobbledegook
and incompetence and much more.
Bored and frustrated at home and at work, 55 year old Henry
Perkins just wants to survive to retirement and a pension.
Suddenly, he is exposed to a new world of business and pleasure. How will he react,
especially to the opportunity to compensate for his lost youth? Relying on honesty
and a sense of humour, he tries to cope with a major industrial accident, a television
interview, an after-dinner speech, an annual general meeting and a business crisis
that threatens to end his new life almost before it began.
Office workers, past and present, will recognise individuals and their idiosyncrasies
and readily identify with some of the funny business incidents described in this humorous book.
