Recognize toxic coworkers, support bullied colleagues, and thrive in the workplace and beyond Ranging from general conflict to psychological violence, workplace bullying has become an epidemic at many offices. The Workplace Bullying Institute reports that workplace bullying affects approximately 80 million workers. And with the Great Resignation upon us, we’re seeing that a toxic culture or manager is one of the top reasons employees leave a company. In Walk Away to Win, Megan Carle draws on her own experience as a target of workplace bullying—paired with the latest research in the field—to reveal how unhealthy workplace cultures enable this insidious behavior. She describes the impact of bullying on an organization’s bottom line; explains what you can do to combat bullying against yourself or your coworkers; analyzes the common characteristics of bullies; and helps readers understand how to face each style of bullying behavior. You’ll learn everything you need to know about: The fundamentals of workplace bullying Various types of bullies, including the Two-Face, the About-Face, and the Rat-Face Cultural context of workplace bullying A target’s options for responding to their bully How you can help a colleague who is being bullied How business leaders must respond to bullies—including termination Walk Away to Win sends a loud-and-clear message to targets of bullying: this is not your fault, and there are steps you can take to protect yourself and your career—including the ultimate win of walking away if your company doesn’t support you. The book also sends a message to leaders in business: if you tolerate workplace bullies, you’ll lose staff, productivity and market share; a no-tolerance policy is the only path forward. If you, a coworker, or a member of your staff is experiencing bullying, Walk Away to Win belongs in your arsenal to combat this behavior and make positive change for everyone.

(B) Break out the PB&J? (C) Order pizza—again? (D) Make a quick trip to the grocery store? The answer''s D, and College Cooking is the only study guide you''ll need. Sisters Megan and Jill Carle know all about leaving a well-stocked kitchen to face an empty apartment fridge with little time to cook and very little money. They practically grew up in their parents'' kitchen, but even that didn''t prepare them for braving the supermarket aisles on their own. That''s why they wrote COLLEGE COOKING—to share the tips and tricks they''ve learned while feeding themselves between late-night studying, papers, parties, and other distractions. Starting with kitchen basics, Megan and Jill first cover ingredients, equipment, and other prereqs for cooking a decent meal. They then provide more than ninety simple yet tasteworthy recipes—hearty home-style dishes, study-break snacks, healthy salads, sweet treats, and more (along with low-cal and veggie options). You''ll find easy and cheap-to-make dishes, like: Tortilla Soup • Chili with Green Chile Cornbread • Chicken Salad Pita Sandwiches • Baked Penne Pasta with Italian Sausage • What''s-in-the-Fridge Frittata • Peanut Butter Cup Bars • Brownie Bites You''ll also find recipes for feeding a household of roommates, maximizing leftovers, cooking for a dinner date, and hosting parties with minimal prep and cost. Just consider COLLEGE COOKING your crash course in kitchen survival—and required reading for off-campus living.

Beyond Rice Cakes and Ramen Quiz time! Vegetarianism is: A) strictly for humorless health nuts. B) fine if you actually like brown rice. I guess. C) what? I wasn'' t sleeping, I was resting my eyes. Can you repeat the question? D) just kind of . . . normal. You answered D, right? Meatless eating is healthy, inexpensive, ecologically friendly, and even hip. What''s not to like? But it''s not always easy being green. The salad bar can get pretty uninspiring after a while, and you don''t even want to know how much salt lurks in that can of tomato soup. Enter the Carle sisters: Megan (the long-time vegetarian) and Jill (the skeptical carnivore) are the dietary divas of yummy, doable dishes for teens and young adults. In this new book (their fourth), they offer the tips, tricks, and tasty recipes they use to feed themselves and their friends in style--veggie style. The Carles make cooking easy for cash-strapped, kitchen-shy vegetarians, starting with instructions on how to set up a basic veggie kitchen on the cheap. And they keep it simple with 90 recipes organized into student-friendly chapters, from "Cheap Eats" to "Impressing Your Date," "Dinner for One" to "Party Food," plus a desserts chapter packed with vegan options. Every page bursts with color photographs. Whether you''re sharing Pasta Primavera with your roommates, taking a Caramelized Onion Tart to a party, grabbing a Roasted Red Pepper and Avocado Wrap on the run, or buttering up your sweetie with Mushroom Ravioli, College Vegetarian Cooking will break you out of the ramen rut--without breaking your budget.
