Whiny pathetic proof of how whiny and pathetic today's 20-30- somethings can be

Pointless rambling and inane. .100% not made. It feels like somebody took an essay from a not so smart maybe Junior in high school, who think she's really smart and worldly, and try to make a little money off of it.

Skip this Poorly Written Story

It was a good thing this was a free short story. This poorly written, hard to follow story that's trying to make a convoluted point, was just painful to listen and read. A young Korean lady discovers work politics. A waste of time and you can find better versions of workplace revenge and satire. Narration wasn’t great either. Hard to tell which character was which.

Why?

This was disappointing and a waste of my time. Several times I thought just stop listening but I was frustrated that I paid for the book.

LEAVE BLACK WOMEN ALONE!!

The audacity to speak for Black women without speaking to Black women. All to avoid her actual issues with 1 (seemingly) white woman. Please!! Side note: no issues with the narrator, she did the best with what she had.

Please refund

Could not interest myself not g good very disinterested

Boring and not enough excitement to stir interest.
