“What a wonderful title: 'The Joy of Not Working'. Ernie Zelinski’s basic message, no matter your career stage, is get a well-balanced life and quit relying on your job to define who you are. <br>
It’s hard to quibble with Zelinski’s live-life-to-the-fullest message. Those who have drafted a resignation letter in their heads a thousand times may be motivated to finally quit an unfulfilling job.” <br>
— Michelle Archer, "USA TODAY"<br>
