The Hierarchy of Bullshit Mountain: A Story of Turds, Plungers, and Corporate Chaos Paperback – March 16, 2026

The Hierarchy of Bullshit Mountain is a fully illustrated, no-mercy satire of modern corporate America-told from the bottom of the pile upward.Written by the alter ego Everest O. Stuelz, this book dissects the meetings, metrics, private-equity jargon, and management theatrical events that crush real work while pretending to optimize it. Every page pulls back the curtain on how decisions drift farther from reality the higher they climb-and how the people doing the actual labor are left shoveling the fallout.This is not a leadership manual.It's not self-help.And it sure as hell isn't corporate-approved.It's a field guide for blue-collar workers, engineers, technicians, mechanics, operators, and anyone who's ever been told to "win the hour" while watching productivity die in real time under the thumb of a private-equity firm and board of directors.Using sharp illustrations, dark humor, and blunt truth, The Hierarchy of Bullshit Mountain maps the layers of dysfunction-from the shop floor all the way to the executive suites-where buzzwords replace accountability and KPI-covered dry-erase boards nuke any remaining trace of common sense.Everest O. Stuelz didn't come from the boardroom. He came from getting his teeth kicked in, surviving long enough to end up under corporate ownership, watching the zoo firsthand as private equity and management rituals strangled good people doing good work.So he wrote the book nobody else would.This book exists to say the thing everyone is thinking-but nobody is allowed to say out loud.If you've ever sat in a meeting wondering how everything got so stupid..If you've ever watched real problems get buried under process inefficiencies..If you've ever laughed just to keep from losing your mind..You're already standing knee-deep in The Hierarchy of Bullshit Mountain.
