Re: How to make friends???
This is the blurb…
“You can go after the job you want…and get it! You can take the job you have…and improve it! You can take any situation you’re in…and make it work for you!”
Seriously? Is this really about making friends or manipulating and flattering others to get them do what you want!

THINK TWICE BEFORE BUYING THIS
By Wild Bull Writer - October 5, 2011
Do you like awful jargon? Bad writing? Meaningless “improvements”? Do you really want to buy a book with gobbledygook sentences like “Today’s biggest enemy of lasting influence is the sector of both personal and corporate musing that concerns itself with the art of creating impressions without consulting the science of need ascertainment”?
Frankly, this unfortunate “revision and updating” of the Carnegie book is a big step backward—a step you can avoid making by buying the original book, which is actually very readable. Whereas this “new” version is so full of mind-numbing jargon you’ll want to pull your hair out.
Conclusion: Either this book is a tranparent ploy to make money, regardless of the quality of the work, or the book’s owners employed the wrong people to “revise and update” it. Not sure which it is. But the effort did go awry.
