THESE QUOTES WERE TAKEN FROM ACTUAL PERFORMANCE EVALUATIONS.

1. Since my last report, this employee has reached rock bottom and has started to dig.
2. I would not allow this employee to breed.
3. This associate is really not so much of a "has-been", but more of a definitely "won't be".
4. This young lady has delusions of adequacy.
5. Works well when under constant supervision and cornered like a rat in a trap.
6. When she opens her mouth, it seems that this is only to change whichever foot was previously in there.
7. He sets low personal standards and then consistently fails to achieve them.
8. This employee is depriving a village somewhere of an idiot.
9. This employee should go far-and the sooner he starts, the better.

EMPLOYEE APPRAISALS

(11) "When his IQ reaches 50, he should sell."
(12) "If you see two people talking and one looks bored, he's the other one."

This is true life. Once I was transferred from one city to another, same agency, by the Area Supervisor. I had never met the office manager until my first day on the new job. His comment to me was, "You look like a COFO worker. If I'd known that I wouldn't have accepted you." Then 6 months later, he writes on my formal performance evaluation, "Wears hair and sideburns a lot longer than I personally like." (Of course he couldn't say that today). This was the same guy who could look at a person's verbal and spatial scores on an aptitude test and tell you within two points what their IQ was. Now HE was REALLY depriving a village somewhere of an idiot! x:-)
