At least she didn't think they were fingers from actual ladies!

This takes me to an Addams Family place.

Darling, the ladyfingers I brought to the PTA Halloween party were a big success. Mrs Thompson brought ladyfinger too, but the ones I made were meatier.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

One of the reasons I haven't been posting as much is because I feel like I am always complaining or asking questions and never being positive, BUT...

I am trying to do my performance self-assessment, which I hate anyway, and what the HECK is the difference between these two questions:

2. Summarize areas in which you performed well,

3. Describe areas where you have shown recent improvement.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

The second should be something you were spoken about before and have since addressed. "I instituted a sign-out for all costumes after we had issues with missing items."

You could have performed well in area you performed well in last year. Whereas recent improvement refers to areas your performance got better in the last month (or quarter or whatever.)

But, last year I got exceeds expectations on everything...

EXCEEDING EXPECTATIONS.

3. Describe areas where you have shown recent improvement.

SEE ABOVE.

God, I hate self-evaluations.

I am so far behind at work, and it looks to be a permanent situation. I'm trying to dig in and start working hard to catch up, but my brain is stuck in "Fuck it" mode and my soul has wandered off to play with the old dolls I found in the back of a closet last night. If my managers "don't care about typos" anymore, what am I doing here? I'm not an editor anymore, I'm just pushing virtual paper around. And I don't even care. It's a decent job, so what if I'm sick of it? I'll find joy elsewhere and stop caring any more than they pay me to. Oh, hey, look what's on eBay.
