Towards the end of April, packets of paperwork will leave HR and make the long journey into the hands of employees. Once distributed, these packets will cause eyes to roll and grumbles to begin, feathers will be rustled and cocks will begin waving about. (Not literally. That would be indecent exposure, if not sexual harassment

Ugh- those evaluations are so ridiculous sometimes. This is one of the reasons I'm glad I work for myself!

[wookiewife]

I've never had to do a review - self or otherwise - in any of my jobs, so this is a real doozy to start off with!

[wookiewife]

With my department, sitting down for a quick chat and review is easy -- there are three of us, plus our manager. But then there's the part of the shop that has about 90-100 employees to one supervisor, and the manager also has another 10-15 people on top of that. It's just bananas. Maybe someone will make a goal to make this process less insane! (Won't be me because my solution isn't a good one.)

Self-evaluations, ugh!

I like this one but his idea has merit (=

Oh, goodness, nothing worse than tedious paperwork that serves no real purpose!
