Cube Farm by Bill Blunden
A very quick read (about 3 hours), this is one man's tale of getting buried in the depths of a corporation. The story is funny, often ironic, and moves along quickly. It feels like a book version of Office Space, though with a larger cast of shallow characters. The "lessons learned" bullets at the ends of each chapter fit a pseduo-business book, but they rarely contribute much. The book is strongest as an indictment of corporatism and a personal tale.
