Job performance? Let me put it this way...

I'm sure these are not "from actual federal government employee performance evaluations." as they were advertised to be in the e-mail that sent them my way. In fact, I'm pretty sure they're not. But who cares?

For those of you in management who are looking for some creative ways to communicate the performance achievements of your less gifted employees, here are some inspiring quotes :

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 employee is really not so much of a has-been, but more of a definite won't be."

4. "Works well when under constant supervision and cornered like a rat in a trap."

5. "When she opens her mouth, it seems that it is only to change feet."

6. "This young lady has delusions of adequacy."
