BrodH20: Yikes, Here Comes the Performance Evaluation

I have two days of work left until I head out of town on a ladies only scrapbooking weekend. In the meantime, there’s laundry to be done, three more stories about child abuse to be written, bags to be packed and a parent meeting to attend. Oh, did I mention that tomorrow is my first-ever performance evaluation in the five years I’ve been at the paper? Wish me luck. I thought I was having a panic attack tonight. The Otis says I always worry about things I shouldn’t worry about. Things that are not even likely to happen. But that doesn’t stop me from worrying about them — Mommy Dearest /BrodH20.

DFO: The Otis is right. Mommy Dearest will pass her performance evaluation with flying colors. Can’t remember when I last had a performance evaluation. But I do remember Opinion Page Editor Doug Floyd paid the bill for the top-of-the-line burgers at Riverfront Square. Burgers sound nice at this point in my diet.

Question: When is the last time you had a performance evaluation? Or: Are performance evaluation a good thing or a bad thing?
