About this listen

The holidays can bring out the worst in people and turn cheer and good tidings into "I saw that first" and "bah, humbug!" But this season, you don't have to get scrooged by other people's bad behavior. Don't Get Scrooged will show you how to avoid, appease, and even win over the Scrooges who haunt your holidays. Whether it's the salesclerk who ignores you, the unnaturally irritable boss, or the in-laws who invite themselves for a two-week stay at your house, you will always need to deal with Scrooges, grumps, and uninvited guests. Learning to handle them whenever and wherever they appear is not just optional - it's essential.

Best-selling author Richard Carlson's Don't Get Scrooged offers 50 practical and entertaining solutions to the problem of Scrooges in whatever forms they take. During the holidays this year, win the battle against bad behavior - and make your season merry again.

Carlson’s storytelling is evocative of CYA

As a writer telling others about arguments to “protect “ yourself from what he calls “scrooges” this book has a good them, but leaves you feeling scrooged with a defensive style that wants to cover all the bases, but ends up not covering any. This is of course, in the style of the new generation of gurus that want to a-peace everything and everyone. leaving out the meatier aspects of our bad experiences: justice.
