Reviews / Votes
Praise for When's Happy Hour?"With their new book, the Betches have embraced two of my favorite things: feminism and getting shit done. Their advice for succeeding in your career is profane and practical, high on straight-talk and low on bullshit. From one betch to another-highly recommended."

I don't even understand what these Betches do, but they're making a fortune doing it!!!" -- Kelly Ripa, host of Live with Kelly and Ryan "Here are the secrets you need to know to replace that boss you can't stand, and be somebody else's boss that they can't stand." -- Claudia Oshry, @GirlWithNoJob "There's no guarantee that reading this book will make you successful, but if it doesn't, you'll at least definitely know - it's not them, it's you." -- Michelle Wolf, host of The Break with Michelle Wolf "Do not even think about taking over the world until you've read this book." -- Whitney Cummings, author of I'm Fine... and Other Lies "If you've ever found yourself crying in a bathroom stall at your corporate job, or wondering who the magical unicorns are that actually know what the F they want to do with their lives, this book is for you. When's Happy Hour? is a hilarious, strategic, and practical guide to getting your life together and taking pride in your career path. The Betches will teach you how to confidently ask for a promotion, decode email lingo, and realize why it's imperative that you do not get blasted at a company party and accidentally hook up with the IT guy. Pour a skinny marg, dive in, and get ready to be the #BossBetch you've always dreamed of being."
-- Cara Alwill Leyba, author of Girl Code and Like She Owns the Place "When's Happy Hour? is both candid and hilarious and offers insightful advice for anyone who is reevaluating their work and pursuing their true calling.

A must-read for women everywhere!" -- Lori Harder, author of A Tribe Called Bliss "You can't stop these Betches!

The perfect mix of LOL meme worthy moments and profound truths makes for a must read for any lady grinding it out."
-- Jaclyn Johnson, CEO & Founder of Create & Cultivate and Author of WorkParty "Jordana, Samantha, and Aleen founded a wildly successful company before they even graduated college-seven years later, they're sharing how they did it.
