Getting Happy Food

So, this is me after work last night, getting food at a Taco Bell drive-thru...



I figured I deserved it after doing my usual great job AND having a chat with my manager about my review. Included in that chat was his word that he would try to check up with me more this year and to include me in meetings (I told him I'm even willing to come in early for them, since I work second shift).

I even found out I got a pay raise, but I have to make sure this month that it's taken effect. Yay! =D

Review This!

Today I got my yearly review at work.

And I didn't sign it.

Instead, I wrote an email to my facility manager, asking if it was proper for me to get a review without my manager even sitting down with me to go over it. I've never seen a review, no matter how good it is, written as only a summary without talking about any of the employee's strengths and weaknesses and/or a roadmap to improvement. Even more perplexing, how can this guy write a review about someone that he's only talked to barely a handful of times in the whole fucking year!? Am I not worth anyone's time if I'm being paid to do my job and do it well, no matter how little follow-up is needed where I'm concerned?

Shit is going to hit the fan tomorrow, and it may be as unpleasant for me as it is to the managers involved.
