I have been having a mixed feeling about the people i call my superiors.
When I was in my previous office, I had a superior who we will call as S who is very unpredictable yet I can most of the time always tackle S work-wise. S is a fussy person and i think I'm not exaggerating when I say that she can be called a bully. Once she found a target, S would go on and on about the person and even to the point of driving the target to their maximum level of stress.
I never had any of that experience of being bullied with S because I always give S a poker face and that might have caused S' disinterest in bullying me. Haha. I even at one time drove S to the wall and caused S to shed a tear, so said S' personal assistant..I can never know for sure because I never saw that actually happening with my own eyes. Besides, she has had a bad day that day so I think everything were just out of her control that she broke down. Sorry Bos..
Anyway, S was stingy with marks when the time comes to evaluate the employees. S might be suffering from a favouritism syndrome and as expected, there'd be people with high flying marks (and I am not saying they don't deserve that because they are doing their job as well).
But there'd be people - honest people - who worked their a$$ off, only to be given a below average evaluation mark. That person might have done something not in S' favor but hey, as long as the work is done accordingly and satisfactorily within the bounding laws in this country, why not award that person with the mark they rightfully deserve? There's no use in sabotaging one's career. What goes around will come around.
Aaaaanyway, I never got below 80 marks with her so that's a blessing. Although I never got more than 90, it's OK as long as I know I have done my job :). It might have been the poker face, I dunno .. hehe
My current bos (J) was quite scary haha. For the few early months, my weekday mornings was filled with thuds of my heart as if it's trying to get out of my chest and I always had that dreadful feeling of "OMG...my bos will be in the office today..who will J pounce upon today.."
But it's been a year of me working under J's wings and although I find J quite hard to please (J's a perfectionist and expects the best out of everybody), with time, I learnt to keep up with the pace and the dreadful mornings has gone..along with the thumping heart ;p.

The only problem is, the subordinates who are not willing to step up. They're rather content, lagging behind and that's quite stressful - carrying the weight of the job and also trying to drag them along hoping they'd wake up and work themselves up.
Sometimes I just think these people are just too comfortable in their little shells and will do anything to protect that. It's either they don't know anything of how the working world is headed to the fast lane, or they are just too ignorant to even bother about it.
It's January and the time has come for the annual evaluation. I've submitted mine to the boss. Any time now. How much will I get this time around? If my LNPK (evaluation for my promotion) is anything to go by, well, I think it'd be a nice evaluation with a 9 in the front integer :D
Thank you Bos! (in advance..? For the LNPK ba..)
::Just want to clear things up that I'm not obsessed with the evaluation mark ;p
