depends on the employer.
16 years on the dark side but enjoying the current employer.
My appraisal was the other day actually, but my Boss is a nice bloke and it was very pleasant. I might even get some more training.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment

The appraisals over the last 14 years of what passed for my career were pretty meaningless for me & a succession of supervisors.
In essence, I copied what we'd said the previous year, he copied what he'd said the previous year, we jiggled the words about a bit to confuse Human Remains, and that was it.
No major trauma.
However I suspect that others were less fortunate where greasy pole climbing superiors were doing the appraisal.Last edited by DoctorStrangelove; 30 March 2020, 11:48.When the fun stops, STOP.Comment

Originally posted by MaryPoppins View PostI am shortly to finish what will be, I think, my last ever contract role. (Been offered a perm role fairly close to home). What a really strange feeling. Do I have to leave the forum?
*I remember the moment I thought "I'm making a mistake". It was signing the contract which included holiday entitlement and all that crap.
