4.0
- Corinne Maier, a senior economist at the French electricity giant Electricite' de France (E.d.F.) was due to be disciplined (following publication of this book) for "disloyalty to the company", and for reading a newspaper during a meeting; but public outcry frightened the company into changing their minds.

- "A witty and subversive slacker's guide to the workplace."
- a true story, translated from the original French
- from New York Magazine: "Corinne Maier, an ennui-prone economic consultant for Electricite' de France in Paris, published a manifesto declaring the merits of showing up to one's job - but only pretending to do any work there.
