So, following on my internal escalation re my performance review for 2008, I have now had feedback that it will be uplifted from a 3 to a 2. Not what I wanted, I still think I should have got a 2+, however, I just can't fight this beast anymore. I'll take the 2, and hopefully will be moving to a new position soon, which means I'm out of the sales field, away from all this bureaucratic crap, and can do what I do best - work on relationships with my clients, ensuring they get the best for what they pay for.
Just one comment really pissed me off - "if you still not happy with this, maybe you should leave"... what the fuck??
As for the rest of it, I still believe that I shouldn't have to lick anyone's fucking arse to do their jobs, and if they not delivering, why the fuck are they not on the red carpet?
A well, such is the life of a middle aged white male in this country.
Salagatle!

Wreckless, our managers are hyounger than we are, they are puppets for the machine and that machine wants numbers. If we are not delivering numbers at a rate much higher than required then we are not required and apparently our jobs can be done better by folk in India, Brazil and Argentina.
Watch yer back bru
PS. Just last week while complaining to my manager he said - 'well then maybe you should do whatever it takes to make you happy and if it isn't here then so be it'
