High Noon: Job Evaluations

I just received my annual job evaluation for my work in the online department of The Spokesman- Review. I received a fairly nice review for the things I do here, including some constructive criticism and challenges to achieve new goals. I’ll be taking a few hours in the middle of the day Thursday to travel downtown to discuss the review with my boss, Blogmeister Ryan. I’d rather get a job performance review, than give one, especially if you, as boss, have to say some hard things. I take the reviews to heart and try to work on areas that can be improved, while maintaining a standard of excellence elsewhere. How about you?

Question: When did you last have a job performance review? Do you consider them of value?
