The guy's brilliant. He's also considering offers from several publishers to tell his story.
Working titles for the book: (okay, the book he's putting his smudge on.)
"Put the best face on disaster: Dress like you care."
"It's Showtime! The light, the camera, the door."
"How high is too high? Cushy jobs and visibility."
"Underqualified and underwater: Drowning in success." (heh. that one works)
