Mistakes I Made at Work book review

Mistakes I Made at Work: 25 Influential Women Reflect on What They Got Out of Getting It WrongMistakes I Made at Work: 25 Influential Women Reflect on What They Got Out of Getting It Wrong by Jessica Bacal
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I popped this book on my list after watching the author speak on a panel at the 2014 Pennsylvania Conference for Woman. This was an enjoyable book, chock full of anecdotes from working women. I didn’t expect for it to change my life or anything, but it’s good to know that even large mistakes aren’t the end of the world.

It was very Smith College-centric. I’d have liked to read stories of women who didn’t get such a privileged start, that’s all.

Hello!

About Me

I've been blogging for over twenty (2 decades! 2-0!) years and I'm apparently one of the few over-50 female bloggers who haven't sold out to THE MAN yet; hence this blog remains quirky, homespun, and unprofitable. No big. However, if you're from Disney, Doritos, or Dave Matthews Band, I'm open to talk about selling out.

I live in Southern New Jersey with my husband WM, and our dog Murphy. I'm an adult who likes Disney but not a Disney Adult. I used to work a fun (really!) office job in Philadelphia, but since March of 2020 I'm a work from home hermit. So if you're looking for a childless, slightly round, marginally boring GenX woman's blog to follow, you've come to the right place! :)

Well, that happened.
