Siddharth Jain:

Being a project manager, i was little offended at the book "loser" bcos it pokes a lot of fun on the managers :), but overall it loved the book for its humour. I am an ardent fan of scott adams and hence this book appealed to me a lot. I could recollect my early days in the IT industry! Btw, i got the signed copy from the author himself when he had come for an exhibition Infosys pune!
