One of the countless things i hate about yearly reviews is the "peer-review" part. The problem i have is coming up with a list of folks that i've worked with who can talk about the things i've done. It's like being asked to come up with a list of five friends as well as five fellow employees.
Sure, it's easy to rattle off the folks i always work with, but that's pretty isolated. Then again, that's actually how i tend to be.
i mean, sure i blog and write and i'm fairly social, but i tend to be a loner. i work on a lot of projects alone. i do a lot of hacks alone. Heck, i often even each lunch alone. There's a lot of reasons for that, but i keep thinking that everyone else must be far more social than i am. Well, until i ask them.
Maybe we tend to clump together, but a lot of folks i casually talk to seem to have this same problem. They have kids, projects, and other things that kinda get in the way of hanging out at Bob's.
Ah well, at least i have you, random and semi-faceless internet people.
At least i think i do.
Please don't shatter my delusions.
