cover:
Jane McGregor has just been laid off from her job designing pink slips for an office supply company. The irony is not lost on her. She's a 28-year-old art major whose last major career accomplishment was being propositioned by the company vice-president. Desperate to maintain her freedom from her oddball parents, tyrannical older brother and slacker ex-boyfriend, Jane starts sending out resumes. So what if some of them aren't exactly, well, true.
When Jane's dad, a staunchly conservative believer in the corporate dream, loses his job, and her mom goes to work for a trendy dot com, Jane discovers that the family she's taken for granted is unravelling. After a fellow lay-off victim hatches a plot to seek revenge on the office supply company, Jane must choose between living in the past and seeking out a new future. To her surprise, that future might involve a most unlikely partner in crime - handsome, funny Kyle Burton - and maybe, just maybe, a new job too.

I didn't like this. It wasn't funny & the characters didn't interest me at all. I thought Jane was meant to be 28, not 8, years old.
