Work Reviews
It's time again for Employee Reviews. Now, I understand that, for many people, reviews are a way of making sure that both you and your boss know that you've worked your ass off, taken on more responsibilities and totally deserve a big, fat raise.
In my case, however...
Why are you laughing?
In my case, a review is just pointless. What is my boss going to say? "File faster! Type smarter, not harder! Xerox outside the box!"
Seriously. I work as hard as I need to in order to do my work in a timely fashion, which rarely requires me to work my ass off. And my responsibilities just... never change. (And I married up, so I don't really need a big, fat raise.)
And Head Boss, God bless him, he doesn't even know what time I get in every morning, let alone what I do all day. How is he supposed to fill out a five-page questionairre on my performance? And how am I supposed to read it with a straight face?
He really shouldn't be required to say more than, "No complaints. Occassionally types my daughter's papers. Great hair."
So he says to me, "Wenchie, do you mind if I just copy what I wrote last year?"
"Go ahead. It's not like I'm actually gonna read it."
Meh, at least he's not making me write it myself. Although I'm sure it crossed his mind.
Comments
I've done that before too (writing my own). It's not like my boss pays much attention either. THANK GOD.
