Walburgers, quarterly reviews, and secret margaritas

Walburgers, quarterly reviews, and secret margaritas


Boss #1 cooked me a Walburger on a panini grill today. I think he burned his fingers every single time he touched that grill.

Have I somehow fallen asleep and woken up in an alternate universe??

He was pretty proud of his accomplishment, too, and kept asking Boss #2 how she liked her burger.

I feel as though everything in the world is turned upside down.

At least my quarterly review was scheduled to happen immediately after.....

The boss duo was fed and happy. In all, the review went very well. How could it not?! I take a lot of pride in my job and I treat my coworkers the way I would like to be treated myself.

To say I really hate doing my quarterly self review is an understatement, but I'm always glad to have it behind me once it's done.

Thankfully.... I had margarita mix at home cause it's been a week full of Mondays. So, here I sit, sipping a frozen strawberry margarita right from the ninja hoping to forget my insecurities, my moments of lunacy, and the woman with the<b> weird </font></b>spiked mullet that yelled at me about frozen wheat bread dough.

Wish me luck!

    I used to have a small Presto grill. I miss that. Nothing like an easy 5 minute burger.
I used to have a George Forman.... Got it free when I opened a bank account. I used it until it died!! I'm not sure why I never bought myself another one...

    thanks for sharing

    I haven't had a review or a performance appraisal in a long time

    looks like I'll have one next year, what a treat

    never had a boss cook for me, they've taken me out to restaurants

    I'm glad that it worked out

    now you can celebrate and focus on the real stuff

    I just thought

    hmm

    Ariana Grande - "7 rings"

    Yeah, breakfast at Tiffany's and bottles of bubbles
    Girls with tattoos who like getting in trouble
    Lashes and diamonds, ATM machines
    Buy myself all of my favorite things (yeah)

    Been through some bad shit, I should be a sad bitch
    Who woulda thought it'd turn me to a savage?
    Rather be tied up with calls and not strings
    Write my own checks like I write what I sing, yeah (yeah)

    My wrist, stop watchin', my neck is flossin'
    Make big deposits, my gloss is poppin'
    You like my hair? Gee, thanks, just bought it
    I see it, I like it, I want it, I got it (yeah)

    I want it, I got it, I want it, I got it
    I want it, I got it, I want it, I got it
Lucky you! My reviews are excruciatingly painful. Not only do I have to self evaluate myself, but I have 2 bosses who make me read it out loud as they discuss it all, point by point. Ugh!!

    everything is upside down! impeachment hearings, colin kaepernick finally has a shot at some possible nfl teams and another decade is fast to close. if there was no one around to share the margaritas with, i'd have done the same thing. i mean, why dirty a glass unnecessarily? those ninjas are pretty snazzy. you do more than make cocktails with it? just curious.
Lately, no. I did do a bunch of stuff with it when I first got it, but I've gotten completely lazy. I should pull out that recipe book again and start whipping myself up some smoothies.

    I hated the last review. One person wrote part of it, another person wrote some of it and someone I dont even work with delivered it. When I had questions about some of it- there was no one to be found. I gave my notice
    and got a bottle of Scotch
How is that even remotely helpful to your continued improvement and work performance??? After all, isn't that why we have performance reviews? To aid and assist in our continued development? You would have been better off with nothing....

    That's a great way to end the day.🍷
    Self reviews are.... are fun. 😶
    I wasn't sure if anyone read them. One year I was pissed off about something... or just fed up. So I suggested that they fire me and redistribute my work load - saving themselves a ton of money.
    I got a raise and a promotion. They thought I was showing initiative. Hmmm.. go figure.
    So... how was your drink? 🤔 🍻🍷🍷
Yummy! Although, probably looks a little weird with a straw sticking out of the blender.

I definitely know the reviews are read where I work. I have to read it out loud to the boss duo, bullet point by bullet point. They then discuss my accomplishments, my areas of opportunity, and ways I feel they can help me to succeed.

Painful.
