4 out of 4 stars
Share This Review


Have you ever wished you had a reliable source of information about jobs and what they entail? Having access to such a job guide could be beneficial. Career Menu with Ingredients by Darell Tapp is such a valuable guide.

This book is a comprehensive career reference guide. It covers an amazingly wide array of jobs. It is a detailed compilation of Darell's job experiences. He's had about 90 jobs in different fields and companies. These fields include construction, manufacturing, management, writing, sales, and many others. The book describes his experiences at each job, what each job entails, its salary structure, his level of satisfaction with the job, and so on.

The information provided in this book is not one-sided. Darrell did not shy away from mentioning his mistakes. For instance, at one job, he had to cope with micromanagement. He soon had the opportunity to discuss it with his boss, but he did not handle it well. He further explained what the reader should avoid in a similar situation.

I particularly love the humorous tone of the narrative. It made the book quite enjoyable when it would only have been a long, boring list of jobs. I learned much about a wide variety of jobs from this book. I've always wondered about the pros and cons of working with Uber. I was delighted to find the chapter where Darell covered his experience as a Uber driver. I learned everything I needed to know.

My most favorite aspect of this book is Darell's attitude towards work. He is diligent, serious, and hardworking. After a difficult work experience left him indisposed for a while, he courageously went for his next interview on crutches. Readers can learn much from his positive work ethic.

However, the author's job satisfaction rating got me confused at some point. For instance, when relating his experience at a job, he said, 'It was a very satisfying experience with Sears.' Yet, he rated his job satisfaction at Sears as 5 out of 10 stars. This is the only dislike I have about this book.

I rate this book 4 out of 4 stars. It was professionally edited. The errors I found were mostly in the form of missing commas. However, they did not interfere with my enjoyment of the book. This book will be a valuable resource for anyone above 12 years with an interest in finding jobs or planning a career path in life.

Wonderful support for many people who are facing challenges during this period. I would love to read it. I would also agree that the most interesting part of any job is the employee's attitude, the rest of the things come later.

This sounds interesting. I also had worked in different areas; not as many as the author, though. I find it amusing when one come with his experiences honestly and smoothly. Great review!
