Bossypants, by Tiny Fey

There were some definite gems in this book.  I particularly like her comments regarding the prevailing sexism she continues to have to deal with as a working woman -- no one asks Donald Trump if he finds it difficult to be the boss.  I also like her approach to work by using the analogy of working in improvisation.  If you work in improv, you are always trying to add to the act and we should all be trying to add something to our role in work.  

Yes, it was an entertaining albeit like work -- just as the cover promised! 

Publisher's summary:  
From her youthful days as a vicious nerd to her tour of duty on Saturday Night Live; from her passionately halfhearted pursuit of physical beauty to her life as a mother eating things off the floor; from her one-sided college romance to her nearly fatal honeymoon -- from the beginning of this paragraph to this final sentence.

Tina Fey reveals all, and proves what we''ve all suspected: you''re no one until someone calls you bossy
