Breakroom Blues: a Novel on the Human Behavior Paradox That Exists Behind Company Closed Doors Pj Pennington

Breakroom Blues, a fun and easy-to-read novel, beckons employers and recruiters to go beneath the surface of a job candidate's tailored resume, rehearsed interview, crafted smile and impressive handshake to seek the candidate's soul-true character. The philosophy employed is simple-once the candidate's soul is discovered, one can make better employment decisions that lead to heightened levels of success for organizations. PJ Pennington brilliantly seeks the soul of six characters using as the main setting the breakroom of a dysfunctional company. Each of the characters is employed by this company and demonstrates many of the employee behaviors we often see in real-life organizations. Breakroom Blues, a precursor to Breakroom Blues Exploratory Workbook and Journal, encourages us to look at our lives and examine our behavior especially when we are "on break"-away from work responsibilities or those we seek to impress. It is a call to continuously "workout" our thinking and conduct so that we keep ethically fit at all times and a reminder not to "rest on our laurels".
