Character Assassination

My previous team leader finally wrote up my first quarterly appraisal - which has been outstanding since early August.

I've long suspected that the run up to Xmas is the time of year that the bean counters REALLY decide what rise you're going to get next year (and that the end of year review in April is just lip service), since the review comments always appear to be a little harsher than usual at this time of year.

This one was a classic. Apparently it's a problem that my "behaviour is strongly influenced by financial goals"!!!
(They must want me to work for free?).

My current team leader isn't doing appraisals yet. Hopefully this gives me a chance to write my own towards the end of the year.
