Thank God it’s Monday by Mark Greene. I (Jeremy) read this book when I was starting in the working world and it was such a helpful preparation. Mark combines a theology of work with lots of very humorous anecdotes from his working life (he’s a former advertising exec), and practical advice on how to thrive in the workplace. If you’re in the working world, or planning to work at some point, you should read this book!
