i'll meet you there...

this is going to be me for the next 6 weeks.


because my awesome job (that is "invaluable experience" as i have recently been told by a respectable man)is having annual reviews at this juncture. have i been pulled for a review every hugging year since i started working for the government? yes. do i think this is preposterous and childishly unfair? yes. honestly, i hate complaining about my job. really, i do. i mean by nature i am sort of a complainer, which is something i would like to work on, but not during this post. anyway, i hate complaining about having a job that i can at least go to everyday. what, with all the insanity of the "greater depression" looming around our door. but holy lord. i just want a hugging break people. these are my issue(s).

1. stop telling me that this quality case review is "qualityafiably" radom. because it is not. there is nothing random about all of my cases having a different ethnicity marked in the box other than "white". there is absolutely nothing random about one of my cases being pulled for review that closed 2 days before the case pull and it wasn't replaced with the exact same kind of case. no. it was replaced with a different case, same family, OF MINE. that last part will only make sense to like two people, nevertheless, it. is. not. random.

2. please do not email me something that says "well hello there, congratulations. you are the lucky people that get to have your case reviewed this year". seriously? hug off. i feel like i am being mocked over something that gets a pat on the back after all this insane amount of work that is put into it. and really, you know that person that sends that email? yeah that person's job is basically on the line if we don't do an awesomely good job and pass our damn reviews. so don't you think that person would have a little more tact when addressing "thee who must save job"? this is how i felt after reading that email:



3. in all reality, unless a worker really hugs up their review, life will go on. i mean i was reviewed by the hugging director last year and i did ok at least. but in any case. wouldn't it be a valid argument to say that if you passed one year, you should at least "hold the immunity idol" for the next year? I mean because we all know it. is. not. random. on any level. so they might as well incorporate this fun little tactic to keep us sane while we drudge through their evil devised plan to make us cry on our way home from work.

4. i often think and possibly voice my serious frustration about being the whipping boy at my job. we are so unthanked, unloved, unappreciated. and there isn't a hugging thing we can do about it. but this review thing. it just reinforces my feelings of inadequacy and knowledge that whatever i do tomrrow at my job, it doesn't matter. so we have a GET THIS, a "case review hugging kickoff party" tomorrow. and you know what. no. i am not going. i am over it. three years in a row. and i have been up half the night thinking about it, so perhaps i can use this as comp time. and why i won't go tomorrow. because i am the farmer. and they are the animals. and they are throwing hugging old nasty food at me. and i am ditchin out on my man farmer joe. see you at the hugging office.
