Cute and wholesome

This is a wholesome story about a man starting a new job; he suffered intense workplace harassment from his previous boss, and has to work through that trauma with his new one. Thankfully, his new boss is a bit clutzy and airheaded, leading to some sweet scenes, and a nice reminder that not everyone's a terrible person. We're also introduced to some coworkers along the way, who round out the book nicely.

I definitely enjoyed this book; it felt like a hot drink and a cozy blanket. The jokes were sweet rather than funny, I thought, and while I'm not sure how long the author can stretch them, this first volume hit all the right notes.

No furigana aside from some names, but the vocab is all really common stuff; there's a few office-related words, but not as many as I was expecting. Grammar felt pretty N3 to me as well.
