The way of the cockroach - Craig Hovey

A sharp business parable perfectly suited for the corporate struggles of the modern world. A frustrated middle manager who is being done down both at work and in love comes across a cockroach on his desk early one morning and, in exchange for not killing it, the bug agrees to instruct him in the ten 'Rules of the Roach', including such wisdoms as: feast where others see only rubbish, grow eyes in your back and what doesn't exterminate you can only make you stronger. Hilarious and sensible - a modern classic for the business world.
