"annual performance review" time at work.
the funniest bit? we have been explicitly told that even if you are the most perfect employee under the sun, they *cannot* leave the part where they tell you all the ways in which you suck blank. they *have to* put something that you can ""improve"" on.
my takeaway:
be who you are, do what aligns with your values, as people will find fault with whatever you do anyway. and some of it may be entirely made up.

οΈ @robyn My best friend was a mechanic for a luxury car brand - one of the top 5 in the country. He told me that he was due for his annual performance review, and he said "Nobody ever gets a 5. Never."
And I asked what management expects in order to give someone a 5... And he said he didn't know... So I started brainstorming...
"Completed the customer's oil change before they arrived."
"Perfectly aligned all four tires by eye." (This normally takes high-tech lasers and stuff...)
"Diagnosed engine problem by taste."
He laughed... but a week later, he still didn't get any 5's.
