This Wasn’t in the Job Description is a candid, funny, and sometimes painfully honest look at what really happens when you build a career in the corporate world.Avery J. Callan spent more than two decades navigating offices, startups, mergers, negotiations, promotions, difficult bosses, unexpected mentors, workplace politics, career setbacks, and the people who can change everything. Starting with no degree and an entry-level job, Avery learned the hard way that the lessons that matter most rarely appear in a job description.There were exceptional leaders who believed in her before she fully believed in herself. There were bosses who showed her exactly what leadership should never look like. There were impossible coworkers, uncomfortable situations, workplace drama, difficult negotiations, career changes, and moments when walking away seemed easier than standing her ground.Through it all came lessons about knowing your value, documenting what matters, building meaningful professional relationships, negotiating with confidence, recognizing good leadership, handling difficult workplace situations, and refusing to let someone else’s behavior define your career.With humor, honesty, and plenty of stories that sound too unbelievable to be true, This Wasn’t in the Job Description offers a behind-the-scenes look at the corporate workplace and the hard-earned lessons that come from actually living it.For anyone who has ever wondered what nobody tells you before you start a career, this is the part of the job description they forgot to include.
