The Boss Is Crazy Too by Mell Lazarus is a riotous satire of corporate life, following the hapless yet inventive Carson Hemple, an art director for the sprawling Fineman publishing empire. When his eccentric boss gives him an unthinkable assignment—steal the company—Hemple embarks on a wildly comical scheme of pilfering, petty fraud, and orchestrated blunders designed to sink the business from within.
But sabotage proves more complicated than he expected. An overeager secretary who wants to help, a wife whose encouragement turns into relentless prodding, and the sheer unpredictability of corporate bureaucracy conspire to turn Hemple's plan into a farce of escalating absurdity. Each new attempt to bankrupt the company only deepens the chaos, leaving Hemple to wonder whether he is dismantling the empire—or simply himself. With his trademark wit, Lazarus skewers the madness of office politics, the lunacy of corporate culture, and the eternal clash between ambition and incompetence. Part screwball comedy, part workplace lampoon, The Boss Is Crazy Too is a clever reminder that in the world of business, the line between order and anarchy is often hilariously thin.
