i wanna hear them.

I work for myself now, but the last time I worked for the man, I just refused to do performance review. They said there'd be no chance of a raise. Seemed like a good deal to me, given the lousy raises they gave.

Also: perf review is just a sheet they'll use to justify layoffs or no raises, especially peer review, so be very careful what you say about colleagues. One little comment like 'he's late back from lunch sometimes' can turn into 'your coworkers have been complaining you're not pulling your weight. YOU'RE FIRED!'

I'm not kidding.

I thank my stars I have none of that nonsense any more.
