The dreaded end of year reviews means no matter how good or bad someone is I need to make a sucky choice of rating someone below the line and potentially creating an exit scenario for that person. This is the one aspect of management job I am sure everyone hates but as my current manager told me, If you dont nominate someone, I will nominate you to be that person - simple, but quite effective forcing function. I dont like this one bit, but I gotta do what I have to do I suppose. I know the criteria by which (rather simple) I am going to do it though.

Nothing I say here should be taken seriously. Or actually anywhere at all. Opinions are strictly mine, and I actually have to say it.
