Product Description Drop-dead hilarious parody of Richard Bolles' What Color Is Your Parachute -- so well done, in fact, Bolles himself says, "Most book parodies are a little mean-spirited. This one is kind, and besides that, it's hilarious. I quote it often." A perfect gift for the graduation, the down-sized, or anyone else looking for work.

Who Packed Your Parachute March 26, 2004 Alex Naslund (Barnum, MN USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
One of the funniest books that i have ever read. If you ever need advice when writing a letter for a job interview, YOU NEED THIS BOOK. For example: "AS mentioned in your ad, i am an hoest, highley motivated, independantworker that can be trusted with the responsibility involved in handling large sums of money. My resume is enclosed. (Please note that both prior convictions are under appeal.)" Danny Y Once again FUNNIEST BOOK EVER!!!!! !!!!!
So funny it's probably all true ... August 19, 1998 John K. Joachim (Indianapolis, IN United States) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I think we all know people who would actually try some of these tactics, and THAT'S what makes some of these so funny !!For example, what NOT to write in a follow-up letter to Human resources: " ... please note that my home contact phone number has been changed. If you ever look out your window (for example, right now), you will see a red Ford van in the parking lot. That's me."
