Employee of the year? I'd expect at least a 60-65" 4K for that...
I would much more appreciate a raise.
What's a raise? I've never heard of that. Do you have documentation on it?

They give us employee of the year here so they don't have to give raises. I'm not kidding. I told my boss if I ever get employee of the year I'm going to be very offended

That's why all the good advice I've seen is to change jobs. The promotions rarely happen internally, no matter what management says.

Pretty much this. I've only seen two significant raises in my life and that was when I switched jobs.

I'll give you 1 guess what project I've assigned myself for this weekend.... well, after that party anyway.

My guess is job hunting.

Put as many applications out as fast as possible?

We get raises and holiday bonuses here. There has never been an "employee of the year" here, but we can buy nice TVs w/ those bonuses...

That sounds fair. Here they give mostly no raises but if they do it's across the board to everyone. So the guy that does nothing gets the same raise as the guy who kills himself working. It's counter intuitive.

Close. Work on the resume and precis package. I doubt I'll get it finished to my satisfaction, but every change requires a first step.

Good Luck! There are quite a few people here who are good at resume critique.

I leave tomorrow afternoon for my brother's and will be in Boston on Saturday for PAX. The tabletop area is supposed to much improved this year.

I'm ready for the day to be over, long day, not tedious, just long.

That's lame. We all get annual reviews, raises are based on performance. Everybody gets about the same bonus.

Also counter productive. It directly rewards laziness and punishes working hard.

Scott was telling me this about employees who spend time on the phones too (granted there was a bit more to it than that
) -
The trouble with the raises across the board (besides what's already been said) is the lazy person who's super exited to get that raise doesn't care.
Not honestly, if they did they'd work harder to try and get a better raise.
