I can actually name an honest to goodness moderate Republican: Senator Susan Collins of Maine.

Well, I'm meeting expectations, which isn't good, and apparently I have some interesting and potentially upsetting feedback to read. I think I'll wait to read it until Friday when I'm working from home. I'm too demoralized to make myself do it right now.
Maybe I can retire.

I love how "meeting expectations" is a bad review. "You're doing what we expect of you. We're very disappointed in you."

As I recall in my brief time as a not-actually-a-Google-employee, you can do a good job and still get what sounds like a pretty bad review.

Yeah, the scale should be recalibrated. That's bullshit.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh lord. Yeah, save that until you have a drink and/or a snack and/or something to distract you.

Yes! Good one. And I guess my governor, Charlie Baker, is actually a moderate? He is definitely a Republican.

You're not wrong.
I have to increase my visibility and sell the things I'm working on when I would rather just do the work. Ugh. Maybe I'll distract myself by writing more code.

My manager spent about half my review just explaining how Google performance reviews weren't a bell curve like Motorola's were. Still it was pretty demoralizing to be told you're doing a perfectly good job, but then get these low numbers.

CJ has found a car so we are in the dealership and all that crap. Vonn Miller is here filming a commercial. I'm not a big football fan...but I do know he was the Super Bowl MVP and was on Dancing with the Stars.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
UGH performance reviews. They are the worst.
It is why I have Garfield fun facts in my head!
And I thought for a second you meant the cat.
