Birthdaying into the new year
01.08.08 (10:06 am)   [edit]

“The holidays are about spending money”…Does that sound wrong? Anyway, there were 11 birthdays and 2 anniversaries between me and Mr. Nick in December and January.

What is with people getting it on March and April? Stop it!

My company does annual reviews for everyone at the same time of year. I wonder if there is some smart reasoning for it instead of doing reviews on people’s anniversary dates. I am due for a 6 month salary review anyway. In two days, I can’t be fired without just cause. Woo.

Anyway, the process for these reviews is that the manager and the employee get the same blank form. We both evaluate and compare, I guess. It’s never been explicitly explained. Too bad I don’t get to review my boss. And the lame thing about these forms is that every one gets the same one – the same 9 page form.

I am SO not looking forward to the review meeting.

Oh boy. Sorry for the lack of visits! It's been a bit crazy!

I hated the twice yearly reviews I used to have at my old job. I always got the feeling that my boss didn't know what the hell he was doing. Best of luck with it!

Yeah, review time is always a bit stressful/weird.

I'm lucky this year, my supervisor has passed the review of me onto one of my superior colleagues instead... gotta love big company's!

Happy new year! Have you given up blogging?
I have a feeling my boss has no idea what my job entails. He probably thinks I am an overpriced word processor!

I've never been worried about reviews until now. For the most part, I've had managers who wanted me to succeed and appreciated my job!
