My lovely co-worker Kate Ward wrote up the latest books from EW staffers, and Find Your Inner Ugly Betty was included. (The other included in the round-up was Pot Culture: The A-Z Guide to Stone Language & Life by EW music writer Shirley Halperin.) This is what was published in the magazine today:
Ugly Betty's Betty Suarez might own a non-workplace-friendly wardrobe, but she's still a good professional role model. At least that's what EW editorial assistant Tanner Stransky argues in his TV-infused career advice book, Find Your Inner Ugly Betty. "Betty is a person who didn't always know exactly what to do, but was very confident about it," says Stransky, 24. "She would just tackle something. I think that's a great lesson." Stransky also highlights other television icons — The Office's Michael Scott is a model for how not to talk in the workplace, while The Mary Tyler Moore Show represents ways to deal with a challenging boss. Suddenly, we don't feel so guilty about being couch potatoes.
