performance appraisal
So I had my perf app today.
I was kinda dreading it, thinking that they'd bring up the fact that I essentially haven't finished anything since I started my job here - two ongoing programs that are complicated and so being changed incrementally, managing one system that was developed over in the US and that I went on a crash course to learn about, bugfixing in another system that was developed over in the US by people who have since left the company and that nobody seems to know about - including the people who made it, and yeah, just generally feeling like my brain is spilling out my eyeballs.
But my boss seems to be happy with my work so far. As in, he marked me up on just about everything I marked down on my self-eval form.
Still, I keep thinking that he'll change his mind once he gets a bit more knowledgeable about the system. Which is bad-wrong-stupid-evil thinking, I know. But hard to get out of when the last permanent work place was decidedly unimpressed by my skills. (As I was unimpressed by their people management.)
--
Still not enough hours in the day to do everything that needs to be done. And April is upon us and there is ScriptFrenzy to be done. ARGH.

B1? I know you're going to read this. Rest assured that tje-tje also tends to kick herself in the metaphorical 'nads on occasion.
