excuses not to answer the phone: Difficult Conversations Just for Women Sofia Santiago, Susan Harrison (Motivational speaker), 2016-06-21 2018 EDITIONFrom the very first chapter, readers will know that they have stumbled onto something valuable, beginning with the authors' advice about the importance of not avoiding difficult conversations aimed at changing another person's behavior . . . Any woman who picks up this book will feel inspired, upon reaching its end, to courageously speak her mind.-Publisher's WeeklyDifficult Conversations Just for Women: Kill the Anxiety. Get What You Want carries a message that every woman needs to know, especially in this day and age; an expert guide on handling difficult conversations. The title of this book may lure readers into checking it out, but they won't be disappointed. What is most interesting about this book is that it offers just what readers need to know. . . No fluff, no babbling.-Readers' Favorite Every woman intuitively knows that the strategies recommended for men won't work for women. Men will be called leaders and women who do the same things will be called bossy (or worse). If she says I feel she may be considered hormonal. That's why other conflict-management books shortchange women in two crucial ways:1) They fail to acknowledge and address the challenges that women face, but men don't. (And I'm not talking about having to turn a banana sideways when eating it in public.)2) They neglect to explain that many of the strategies they recommend-when followed by a woman-will carry backlash. When it comes to difficult conversations, women struggle to find the right balance between being seen as too passive (a doormat) or too aggressive (a bitch.)Those and many more are the reasons why women avoid confrontation at all costs, make fewer requests for themselves than men, and end up not getting what they want or deserve. This book is based on scientific research, and it has been written just for women. Presented in a lively and entertaining style, DIFFICULT CONVERSATIONS JUST FOR WOMEN gives women specific techniques and wording to feel confident before, during, and after a difficult conversation, and to tackle confrontations effectively. |
excuses not to answer the phone: Ask a Manager Alison Green, 2018-05-01 From the creator of the popular website Ask a Manager and New York’s work-advice columnist comes a witty, practical guide to 200 difficult professional conversations—featuring all-new advice! There’s a reason Alison Green has been called “the Dear Abby of the work world.” Ten years as a workplace-advice columnist have taught her that people avoid awkward conversations in the office because they simply don’t know what to say. Thankfully, Green does—and in this incredibly helpful book, she tackles the tough discussions you may need to have during your career. You’ll learn what to say when • coworkers push their work on you—then take credit for it • you accidentally trash-talk someone in an email then hit “reply all” • you’re being micromanaged—or not being managed at all • you catch a colleague in a lie • your boss seems unhappy with your work • your cubemate’s loud speakerphone is making you homicidal • you got drunk at the holiday party Praise for Ask a Manager “A must-read for anyone who works . . . [Alison Green’s] advice boils down to the idea that you should be professional (even when others are not) and that communicating in a straightforward manner with candor and kindness will get you far, no matter where you work.”—Booklist (starred review) “The author’s friendly, warm, no-nonsense writing is a pleasure to read, and her advice can be widely applied to relationships in all areas of readers’ lives. Ideal for anyone new to the job market or new to management, or anyone hoping to improve their work experience.”—Library Journal (starred review) “I am a huge fan of Alison Green’s Ask a Manager column. This book is even better. It teaches us how to deal with many of the most vexing big and little problems in our workplaces—and to do so with grace, confidence, and a sense of humor.”—Robert Sutton, Stanford professor and author of The No Asshole Rule and The Asshole Survival Guide “Ask a Manager is the ultimate playbook for navigating the traditional workforce in a diplomatic but firm way.”—Erin Lowry, author of Broke Millennial: Stop Scraping By and Get Your Financial Life Together |
excuses not to answer the phone: Linked Gordon Korman, 2021-07-20 An unforgettable novel from the New York Times bestseller Gordon Korman Link, Michael, and Dana live in a quiet town. But it's woken up very quickly when someone sneaks into school and vandalizes it with a swastika. Nobody can believe it. How could such a symbol of hate end up in the middle of their school? Who would do such a thing? Because Michael was the first person to see it, he's the first suspect. Because Link is one of the most popular guys in school, everyone's looking to him to figure it out. And because Dana's the only Jewish girl in the whole town, everyone's treating her more like an outsider than ever. The mystery deepens as more swastikas begin to appear. Some students decide to fight back and start a project to bring people together instead of dividing them further. The closer Link, Michael, and Dana get to the truth, the more there is to face-not just the crimes of the present, but the crimes of the past. With Linked, Gordon Korman, the author of the acclaimed novel Restart, poses a mystery for all readers where the who did it? isn't nearly as important as the why? |

excuses not to answer the phone: Essentialism Greg McKeown, 2014-04-15 THE LIFE-CHANGING NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • MORE THAN TWO MILLION COPIES SOLD • Now in a 10th anniversary edition featuring a new introduction and bonus 21-day challenge. “Essentialism holds the keys to solving one of the great puzzles of life: How can we do less but accomplish more?”—Adam Grant, bestselling author of Think Again Essentialism isn’t about getting more done in less time. It’s about getting only the right things done. Have you ever found yourself stretched too thin? Are you often busy but not productive? Do you feel like your time is constantly being hijacked? If you answered yes to any of these, the way out is the Way of the Essentialist. Essentialism is more than a time-management technique. It is a systematic discipline for discerning what is absolutely essential, then eliminating everything that is not, so we can make the highest possible contribution toward the things that really matter. By forcing us to apply more selective criteria for where to spend our precious time and energy, the disciplined pursuit of less empowers us to reclaim control of our own choices, instead of giving others the implicit permission to choose for us. Essentialism is not one more thing to do. It’s a whole new way of doing less, but better, in every area of our lives. Join the millions of people who have used Essentialism to change their outlook on the world. |

excuses not to answer the phone: The Sunset Strip Diaries Amy Asbury, 2024-02-17 There comes a time in every girl's life, when she has to choose good or choose bad. Amy Asbury chose bad, hands down. Good meant wallflowers, secretaries and subservient wives. Bad meant power- and a possible escape from a life of secrets. At twelve years old she was trying to make sense of a drug-addicted father and his disturbing behavior. By fifteen she was dealing with horrendous depression, blackouts and rape. At sixteen she was in a mental institution for suicidal tendencies and violent behavior. She knew she could never be normal. The only place for a girl like her was Hollywood. Read the true story of the social ascent (and eventual decline) of a girl in the Sunset Strip music scene of the early 1990's. From crazy parties to glittered junkies and man-eating strippers, Amy has chronicled what life was like back in the days of excess and debauchery. It is not just a fascinating look into an amusing time in pop culture, but also details the mindset of a young woman trying to find confidence and self-worth in a life full of pain and chaos. The party came screeching to a halt when the Grunge movement took over and heroin became more prominent. How far off track can a person go before it's too late? |

excuses not to answer the phone: No More Excuses Amber J. Keyser, 2019 In late 2017 the #MeToo movement went viral, opening up an explosive conversation about rape culture around the globe. In the US, someone is sexually assaulted every 98 seconds. More than 320,000 Americans over the age of twelve are sexually assaulted each year. One in thirty-three American men will be sexually assaulted or raped in his lifetime. Yet only 3 percent of rapists ever serve time in jail. Keyser explores the patriarchal constructs that support rape culture. The keys to dismantling them: redefine healthy manhood and sexuality, believe victims, improve social and legal systems and workplace environments, evaluate media with a critical eye, and stand up to speak out. -- adapted from Amazon.com info |
excuses not to answer the phone: I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die Sarah J. Robinson, 2021-05-11 A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect. |

Marohn, Jr., 2019-10-01 A new way forward for sustainable quality of life in cities of all sizes Strong Towns: A Bottom-Up Revolution to Build American Prosperity is a book of forward-thinking ideas that breaks with modern wisdom to present a new vision of urban development in the United States.

excuses not to answer the phone: Ghanbandra Colm Fenton, 2004 Ghanbandra is a supernatural suspense thriller, foretelling the doomsday prophesies. Centering on a very wealthy satellite business company, the story tells of the owner's quest for women and power on a global scale. Murder, rape, and domination his goal in life. Tormented by dreams of the past, future, and present. Never knowing which will occur and when? His wife's early departure leaves him in the company of his beautiful secretary. She has her own fashion house, and is wanted desperately by one of her male models. A beautiful nineteen-year nanny looks after his twelve-year old son. The businessman wanting to bed her at his first opportunity. A seventh son of a seventh son, so too is his youngest son, who has constant visitations from his dead mother. All of his other six sons left him to work abroad, believing he murdered his wife for insurance money to keep the ailing company afloat. The superpowers gather together to try and find out why a star in the heavens, millions of miles from earth, is pulling on the axis of the earth causing massive gravitational destabilization. The Star continues to vibrate sending out massive magnetic force fields, that are pulling more and more on the magnetic core of our planet. The subterranean plates two thousand miles under the oceans are distorting and overheating from the magnetic pull from the star, which can unleash millions and millions of tons of molten lava into the oceans, thus burning our planet if the plates cannot be stopped from magnetically turning on themselves. Two rogue nuclear submarines under the poles, threaten to overheat from the intensity of the oceans water temperature, melting the polar caps and flooding the world. The super powers consult the Vatican having heard of the doomsday prophesies from the valley of the king recently unearthed. The codes of the prophecies cannot be broken in full. The prophecies tell of the doomsday Armageddon, three thousand years old, written in old Arabic and mathematical codes not seen on this earth before. Decoders and mathematicians work day and night in the deep Vatican crepts trying desperately to find answers of what lies ahead for mankind. What has been decoded tells of twelve girls, all over the globe who may be hosts to the coming of the antichrist child. The world will end in twelve days, if the codes cannot be broken, and the host child found together with the man who will carry the antichrist seed. Twelve days tick by slowly as the Vatican desperately try and find each girl in turn. Terrible exorcisms are conducted, as Cardinal after Cardinal is butchered. One girl's supernatural powers are attempted to be harnessed by one superpower, leading to a vengeful bloodbath. Once the codes are broken, a seventh son of a seventh son, is the only one who can do battle against the forces of evil, with the ancient rites and texts of the prophet David, and above all the final rite of exorcism used three thousand years ago, still undecoded, still intact, still in the casket of the visionaries handed down through the generations from pope to pope. Realizing all is lost, and believing the doomsday prophesy, the superpowers agree to help the Vatican and do all in their power to find out why the star is pulling on our axis, and why it is vibrating, so as to pinpoint where on earth this deed of insemination will be committed. All communications systems around the globe are shut down, so as the magnetic effects of the star will not turn nations against nation with the release of nuclear weapons from failed computer systems. The world will be pulled from it's axis by the Star, if the magnetic pull cannot be stabilized, sending the earth into outer space in a freezing ball of ice, or the world will incinerate by the overheating of the subterranean plates, or the world will be flooded by the melting of the ice caps. Day by day the Catholics do battle against the forces of evil, in their quest for the one host girl. Day by day t |

excuses not to answer the phone: Metamorphosis Franz Kafka, 2021-03-19 Franz Kafka, the author has very nicely narrated the story of Gregou Samsa who wakes up one day to discover that he has metamorphosed into a bug. The book concerns itself with the themes of alienation and existentialism. The author has written many important stories, including The Judgement, and much of his novels Amerika, The Castle, The Hunger Artist. Many of his stories were published during his lifetime but many were not. Over the course of the 1920s and 30s Kafkas works were published and translated instantly becoming landmarks of twentieth-century literature. Ironically, the story ends on an optimistic note, as the family puts itself back together. The style of the book epitomizes Kafkas writing. Kafka very interestingly, used to present an impossible situation, such as a mans transformation into an insect, and develop the story from there with perfect realism and intense attention to detail. The Metamorphosis is an autobiographical piece of writing, and we find that parts of the story reflect Kafkas own life. |
