      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?

      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.

        Nothing more true has ever been said

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

              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.

                            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.

                                          T-minus 2 hours 6 minutes until my vacation officially begins. PAX here I come!

                                          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'll be around for Netrunner probably. Love that game. Going with a group of like 50 this year.

                                          Wow... we just have 4 people going down.

                                          I'm a part of the Big Sushi group if you've ever listened to their podcast. We've been friends for almost two decades. We met at this LAN event called cyber freak meet. There were so many people there that our groups end up being absolutely ridiculous 😄

                                            Good for you guys! My usual friends I meet up with were unable to get tickets this year.
