Welcome to the Inner Circle

Have you ever wondered why HR insists on gathering at 3:33 PM every third Thursday in matching cardigans? Or why Brenda from Benefits softly hums Gregorian chants while approving PTO requests? Welcome to the Inner Circle is your initiation into the clandestine world of Human Resources-revealed by lifelong devotee and alleged "people person," Barclay Penwhistle.

In this absurdly insightful office etiquette guide, you'll discover the real purpose of onboarding rituals, why the employee handbook must never be read aloud backward, and the sacred hierarchy of fridge shelf assignments. More than just a guide, it's your passport to surviving-and thriving-within the beige walls of this khaki-cloaked cult.

From blood oaths disguised as team-building to ancient coffee rituals performed under flickering fluorescent lights, this book is both a how-to and a warning. Read it, memorize the chants, and for the love of HR, never question the Casual Friday cloaks.
