“Work? The girls are employed, the dolls have jobs, and mama's clocked in.” – Working Girls: Trixie and Katya’s Guide to Professional Womanhood
Trixie Mattel and Katya Zamolodchikova have done it again—with Working Girls: Trixie and Katya’s Guide to Professional Womanhood, they deliver a laugh-out-loud, dazzlingly designed, subversively sharp handbook for the modern career queen. Equal parts parody, self-help, and fashion-forward fever dream, this sequel to their Guide to Modern Womanhood cements their place as two of the funniest, fiercest voices in drag and queer culture today.
From “The Office” to “Side Hustles,” from “Networking” to “Selling Out,” no workplace stone is left unturned (or unlipsticked). Trixie’s pageant-polished satire and Katya’s delightful chaos perfectly complement one another, offering both real insights and total absurdity on how to navigate the modern workplace—whether you’re in stilettos, sweatpants, or spiritual disarray.
What makes Working Girls essential—especially during Pride season—is how it champions resilience, reinvention, and ridiculousness as sacred tools of survival. For drag performers, queer creatives, and anyone who's ever felt like a fish out of water in the corporate aquarium, this book is both mirror and megaphone. It screams: You belong here—even if you’re wearing six-inch heels and a synthetic wig.
A standout quote? “If you’re going to fake your résumé, fake it with confidence. Lie so hard you believe it yourself. That’s called acting—and it’s a job.”
Working Girls is a must-read for Pride, for laughs, and for anyone who needs a fabulous reminder that professionalism can—and should—come with a punchline and a pair of lashes. Trixie and Katya don’t just clock in. They clock the system.
I feel like there's a joke to be made about the fact that I read this book in its entirety while on the clock, but I can't think of one. Anyway, this is another hilarious book from two of my favorite biological women. Funny, charming, and surprisingly genuine.

you could tell this was their 1st foray into book writing. It was more Katyas writing than Trixie....which wasn't the best. Trixie's humor showed through. Kinda funny, wouldn't read again.
