How to lose friends and alienate people

I'm not sure if you've heard of or read the book, "How to Win Friends and Influence People."  Mike and I often enjoy stories of How to Lose Friends and Alienate People though.  I've observed from different people recently some great stories of How to Alienate Your Boss.  If you want to hear, ask.  I know that this book was a bit of a fad, but may I recommend Steven Coveys, "Seven Habits of Highly Effective People."  There are some great life lessons.  May I also emphasis the importance of being proactive?  Please?  It makes life go so much smoother.  So, be proactive.
