I know this book is not a movie book but I thought the title and content would be very useful to make the above feel very guilty for not being as nice as the other people on the forum such as Carl, nige, Liz, Krytens featherduster and anyone else I've forgotten

I definitely have to get this book Since starting work at my current place of employment, I have never met so many nasty people compressed into one buidling. (Nasty does not even come close to describing some of them). Luckily I have survived for ten years... HOW? I am far more nasty than any of them
Seriously, this sounds like an interesting read.
Thanks for the info Jonny.

Also if the book is thick and heavy you could always hit them with it not that I'm advocating violence or anything
