Tomorrow I have my performance appraisal with my boss and the discussion about my performance plan for next year. My plan is to quit in January and move to UK. Like I give a Shite about my performance appraisal

Gotta love it

It sounds like you are the one that will be giving the evaluation Bruce.

Uncle-AJ · 21 October 2005, 03:51 PM

When I had mine my boss asked what were my aspirations. I said It was to retire with a good pension, so how about a pay rise. He looked a bit shocked but at 58 years old I think I've gone as far as I can or want. I don't need any more stress.

BruceS · 21 October 2005, 10:33 PM

So I guess I shouldn't sell the crampons and ice axe

I had my performance appraisal earlier this year. I looked in the mirror and said "Self, I think it's time to start slowing down."

Self said "Why do you want to do that?

I said "Because I've been at this business for amost 40 years and it's time to start thinking about a change."

So Self said, "Well, if that's what you want to do, then go for it."

It's good to be your own boss.

BruceS · 21 October 2005, 10:40 PM

LOL I agree, and that's exactly what I'm after!

Rockrolex · 21 October 2005, 10:42 PM

Where are you planning to settle in the UK and what are you going to do there?

BruceS · 21 October 2005, 11:01 PM

We're going to Cornwall, but not sure where yet. What am I going to do? Still workin' on that

Rockrolex · 21 October 2005, 11:06 PM

My wife used to crimp pasties at Ginsters when she was a teen. I think I could just about survive on pasties alone!

You have to call them oggies in Cornwall. They have their own ancient language you might have to learn.
