New York Times bestselling author Dan Lyons exposes how the "new oligarchs" of Silicon Valley have turned technology into a tool for oppressing workers in this "passionate" (Kirkus) and "darkly funny" (Publishers Weekly) examination of workplace culture. At a time of soaring corporate profits and plenty of HR lip service about "wellness," millions of workers--in virtually every industry -- are deeply unhappy. Why did work become so miserable? Who is responsible? And does any company have a model for doing it right? For two years, Lyons ventured in search of answers. From the innovation-crazed headquarters of the Ford Motor Company in Detroit, to a cult-like "Holocracy" workshop in San Francisco, and to corporate trainers who specialize in . . . Legos, Lyons immersed himself in the often half-baked and frequently lucrative world of what passes for management science today. He shows how new tools, workplace practices, and business models championed by tech's empathy-impaired power brokers have shattered the social contract that once existed between companies and their employees. These dystopian beliefs--often masked by pithy slogans like "We're a Team, Not a Family" -- have dire consequences: millions of workers who are subject to constant change, dehumanizing technologies -- even health risks. A few companies, however, get it right. With Lab Rats, Lyons makes a passionate plea for business leaders to understand this dangerous transformation, showing how profit and happy employees can indeed coexist.Binding Type: Paperback

Reliable and Dependable
Color: Blue
The LIANXIN Roadside Assistance Emergency Kit is a solid, thoughtfully assembled kit that every car owner should consider keeping in their trunk. It covers all the basics you’d want in an unexpected roadside situation and does so in a compact, well-organized package.
The tools feel sturdy and practical rather than cheap or disposable. Items like the jumper cables, reflective safety vest, warning triangle, and flashlight are especially useful and inspire confidence in an actual emergency. Everything fits neatly into the carrying case, making it easy to store without taking up much space.
What really stands out is the kit’s versatility—it’s suitable for daily commuters, long road trips, and even new or inexperienced drivers who want extra reassurance. It’s also a great gift idea for students, new drivers, or anyone who wants to be better prepared on the road.
Overall, the LIANXIN Roadside Assistance Emergency Kit delivers excellent value for its price. It’s practical, reliable, and provides real peace of mind knowing you’re prepared if something goes wrong. Highly recommended for any vehicle owner. 🚗🧰

Worth every single penny.
Color: gray
I haven’t had this kit in my car for very long, but it has definitely come in handy. Especially when people leave their blown out tires in the middle of the interstate and you accidentally run it over because the traffic is so bad you can’t see it coming and it knocks the plastic protectant piece loose from under your car and starts making an awful sound because it’s being dragged across the ground on the interstate. I pulled over and used one of the zip ties in this kit to hold it up and it’s still holding it up quite nicely I might add. This is something definitely worth having around because you never know what may come your way in life.
