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.
I'm a vision of hotliness, and how weird is that? Mystical comas. You know, if you can stand the horror of a higher power hijacking your mind and body so that it can give birth to itself, I really recommend 'em.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh, ugh, shrift, I hate upping visibility. Doing the work should be enough.
And I thought for a second you meant the cat.
A) Hates Mondays 2) Loves lasagna iii) Was nominated as a Dark Horse
Dammit, I keep not having time to call the person with the cat! She left me a message on my work phone after I left yesterday and I thought 7 am was probably too early to call and then I forgot until I was in a meeting and now I'm off toget my hair cut. Maybe I can reachher on the way.

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.
That sucks. It seems like sales and code writing should be different positions.

It's 'selling' in the form of self-promotion and visibility with upper management.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OMG, that would be amazing. Just in that he might be the only person who is a bigger asshole?

For Trump? I heard Chris Christie somewhere on twitter. Seems plausible.
For Clinton? Harder to say.
For Sanders? Even harder to say.
I've heard people talk about Elizabeth Warren as a potential VP pick for the Democratic nominee, but I'd rather have her kicking butt in the Senate. And wouldn't her seat be filled by the MA governor, a Republican? Nah. Maybe one of the few remaining Democratic governors? Jay Inslee (WA) or Maggi Hassan (NH)?

Corey Booker, Deval Patrick? Though both are Northeasterners, so not much advantage.
