Eric Egeland Offers Summer Discount on 'Employees, Kids, and Pets' Book

Sales of the book were up 400% this spring.

"Summer is also a time when kids and employees tend to act up and/or slack off and we wanted all the parents and bosses to be armed!" says Eric.

"Kids absolutely change in the summer. They click into fun mode. Parents add to this by allowing later bed times, later wake times, increased sleep overs, extra snacks, etc. This is all fine IF you have a solid foundation of expectations you stick to. If not, the relaxed rules encourage them to be bolder and push the envelope. This not only can cause increased arguments and experimentation with rules, sex, drugs, etc. but can cause a slip in parental respect and self-esteem that never comes back."

Eric continues, "Adult employees feel the same euphoria. They take days off, take vacations, and attend company picnics. Bosses have the power to take even more time and do so as well with golf, family, vacations, etc. Employees never feel it's fair for the boss to have special privileges. Combine him being out even more with the summer cockiness of employees and you can have a full blown mutiny on your hands. Best part is, they all want to keep their job so you'll never know your company is being sabotaged."

Employee, Kids, and Pets is a gem of knowledge with entertaining stories to back the lessons. It starts by pointing out the natural but effective way we react to pets misbehaving. It then compares that reaction to the stark way we tend to deal with our children and employees and points out how damaging that lack of reaction is to those relationships. It also touches on some stereotypes we have all seen in the work place, like the rainmaker/boss that is never in the office, the tyrant supervisor that eventually gets the company sued, and the crazy office manager that creates a military state the minute the boss isn't there. Of course it digs into why people act like this and talks about our psychological tendencies to avoid conflict or assume everyone can read our mind. But what makes this book truly fun to read are the timeless lessons wrapped around stories of the author's child and various misbehaving employees. A simple but genius little book destined to be a classic like Who Moved My Cheese!
