Even now, I find myself rewatching old bits and segments from his shows, and I listen to the podcast quite often. Sona's book is filled with tiny anecdotes any Conan fan will enjoy, and gives its reader glimpses into her relationship with her boss -- both their dysfunctions and their friendship. The book itself is light, and it feels a little padded (there is one section Sona titles simply "Filler") but it's an enjoyable read. (Audiobook) Movsesian admits her book peaks at the foreword, but her perspective proves likable enough to entertain through the rest. She doesn’t have amazing prose, and it occasionally reads like she was commissioned to write a book instead of having something to write about. Her anecdotes are still amusing and she tells them with a certain humor even if it’s not super clever. Really only worth reading (and especially hearing it from the author herself) if you like her already. It’s short enough not to offend but insubstantial enough not to demand attention. Would’ve been fun if the whole memoir was illustrated like a graphic novel. Zeige 4 von 4 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

***An Instant New York Times Bestseller*** From Conan O'Brien's longtime assistant and cohost of his podcast, Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend, a completely hilarious and irreverent how-to guide for becoming a terrible, yet unfireable employee, spilling her trade secrets for minimizing effort while maximizing the rewards. Sona Movsesian didn't wake up one day and decide to become the World's Worst Assistant. Achieving such greatness is a gradual process--one that starts with long hours and hard work before it eventually descends into sneaking low-dosage edibles into your lunch and napping on your boss's couch. With a foreword from Conan O'Brien, The World's Worst Assistant is populated with hysterical black-and-white illustrations, comics, and more. It's a mixture of how-tos (like How to Nap at Work and How to Watch TV at Your Desk), tips for becoming untouchable (like memorizing social security and credit card numbers and endearing yourself to friends and family), and incredible personal stories from Sona's twelve years spent working for Conan that put their adorable closeness and professional dysfunction on display. In these pages, Sona will explain her descent from eager, hard-working, ambitious, detail-orientated assistant to self-awarded title-holder for the worst in history. This book is irresistible fun you'll want to give to every young professional in your life. For readers of heartfelt humor like that of Phoebe Robinson and Colin Jost, The World's Worst Assistant is a chance for fans, viewers, and listeners of Conan's shows and podcast to fall in love with Sona and Conan all over again.
