  I read this book and was laughing through it.
  
  
  
  The way Stanley Bing wrote about the jobs and how to get them, struck a chord. People going around earning big bucks through their ability to bullshit are myriad. You yourself have probably met them or even are one of them!
  
  That is not detracting from a person, but rather, spoken with a sense of admiration as it is not an easy task to become someone with such a job.
  
  A few jobs were listed as high on the bullsit levels.
  
  Consultant
  Economist
  Feng Shui Consultant
  McKinsey Hit Man
  Motivational Speaker
  Palm Reader/Psychic/Astrologer/Tarot Reader
  Pet Psychic
  Pop Tart
  
  And I FULLY and UTTERLY agree with Bing.
  
  He took a bunch of jobs, and reduced them to the bare essentials of the job and showed it to be a bunch of bullshit that they are.
  
  A worthwhile read, especially if you are one of those who are guillable enough to be taken in by the bullshit artists who prey on people.
  
  4 out of 5 - if this book is taken as seriously as it is funny, bullshit artists beware!
