Get a job,the late twentieth-century way

I just saw the movie Twelve Monkeys and was blown away by its artistry. And though I've never been a big fan of Bruce Willis, I began to sympathize with him -- not so much in the role of a guy from the future looking for a virus, but a guy from the future looking for a job. Or a career. Or some meaning to a tortured existence. And then at the video store I saw the poster with the slogan for this movie: "The future is history." Well, that kind of describes how quickly the workplace is moving, and warns people in business who are too slow or lazy to keep up. The following books are not likely to win any literary prizes, but they will definitely improve the history that's ahead of you.
