This is a review for Boots in the Office: Your Workplace Survival Manual I received to read and review. The thoughts in this review is mine and my families.
My son in law Toby was in the service although Toby Medically discharged when they found out he had Cancer. They couldn’t send Toby overseas to serve our Country.
Even though I know my daughter Leslie would have missed Toby and worried about him. I honestly believe that would have been the best thing for there family.
They’ve been home almost two years and neither of them are working. They live off my Mother and Father in Law. If we say something about Toby getting a job Leslie defends Toby and says he’s going to school online.
Toby is taking classes but he isn’t putting enough effort into them because he would rather play Video Games. Toby doesn’t even help with there son Elijah. Which is why Leslie can’t get a job.
I read Boots In The Office so I could better understand things Toby might be facing and I am hoping this helps not only Toby but other Military Personnel Succeed in Civilian Jobs.
I could even see using Boots In The Office with my son Travis who dropped out of school and has no, motivation but has 5 kids and needs a decent job to be able to take care of them.
