# Hell no
We're too scary and he'd have to stay overnight, which he doesn't do though he sometimes pretends he's considering it ;)

I'm trying to get myself enthused to do some prep work for a pretty important meeting tomorrow. Blegh.

# anger management.
I think before I start the next phase for BA I'm sending all my guys on a danger management course. They are all fucking stuntmen in the workplace.

# How come?
What'd they do to you son?!

The meeting is my annual review where I have to evidence not only that i'm doing a job that can't really be evidenced in the ways they specify, but also that I'm 'advancing'...also impossible to evidence effectively.

Everyone knows I do a fucking good job, much to the chagrin of some, and yet I'm stuck being forced to sing my own praises on some dumb paperwork my manager is then duty bound to rip to shreds for the lack of evidence he knows I couldn't provide anyway.

You may be able to guess why I'm finding it hard to build up the enthusiasm...
