Title: Some good news at last
Post by: Gaffers on 13 December 2011, 20:38:13
Well after a few years of disapointing reports which I put down in part to an undiagnosed illness I got my mid year report this afternoon and it was very positive, there's even talk of being recommended for promotion...!  Finally I could outrank Zok!  I have been working hard and even though the boss could not identify any negatives, I know where I could do better in the next 6 months.

...plus yesterday I was told that after last week being taken off the list of people going away next year (which really upset me) I am now back on the list so I am made up!

2 very good bits of news just before Xmas!  This time next year I'll have everything to play for ;) 

It's a shame I'm on call and cant have a wee dram of the scotish firewater I got myself for Xmas.

Well done  :)

And where it will end for me as I intend to do no more than 16 years.  Besides I have age and medical grading against me for anything higher.

First things first though, I have to extend my commission otherwise I'm on the dole in 18 months.

There must be something in the water as things are fairly bright here too, only 3 more months of chemo (which is more "belt & braces") and I'm in the clear as far as the docs are concerned (5 years pending obviously).

Congrats to you Matt  :y :y
