A pocket guide to all the adult stuff you re expected to know (but that nobody ever explains) from paying your taxes to changing a tire to making new friends. Do you ever feel like you missed the day in school where they taught you . . . literally everything you were going to need for a successful adulthood? How do you iron clothes? Where do friends come from? Why are there so many types of insurance? Does everyone else already know this stuff, and where did they learn it? Well, you don't have to flail around anymore, pretending like you know what you're doing. Here s the handbook for that day we all missed and it fits right into your pocket! Get the background knowledge you deserve for life skills like: Writing a cover letter that's confident but not overconfident. Replacing a button or sewing a hem to rescue old clothes. Making a budget and sticking to it. Hosting a party and making small talk at a party. Holding a baby, whether it's yours or someone else's. And more! Featuring handy tips, tricks, and techniques collected from the bestselling Stuff series, Stuff Every Adult Should Know is the adulthood 101 we ve been waiting for!
