Anyone who has lived through the turmoil of outsourcing and layoffs will appreciate the sarcastic humor this department manager displays as she takes mental potshots at those who seem to survive the daily grind despite themselves. Her department has been targeted for an outsourcing initiative by senior management and she must battle to survive while dealing with the daily drama of running a mail room and print shop at a Chicago company. New to the job, the manager has inherited a handful of inept employees who unwittingly sabotage her efforts to keep the rest of the group from being laid off. In the process, she questions her own ability to stave off what seems to be the inevitable and wonders whether it is worth her effort.

Enter a world where employees defy common sense in their actions. A world where the sometimes-clueless senior management prefer to take a back seat to the process and the outsource vendors claim to have all the answers. Anyone who has worked with a coworker who regularly fails to produce will appreciate the effort expended to rid the department of dead weight before the decision can be made about outsourcing.

Dare to take a ride on a roller coaster with one woman who refuses to be backed into a corner and accept a pink slip without a fight.
