Let the good times roll…
At work I’ve hit my second 90 day review… this is kinda scary to me. Not because I’m made it to the 6 months with a company, but because my boss came into my office yesterday and told me to fill out this assessment on myself. And once again, I think I’m being my worst critic. Having less then a years experience in the actual business world, I have to figure out how to transition from the full time college kid with the part time job, to the full time career kid with the part time classes. Let me tell you, this isn’t an easy task. But I do have to admit, I like having to pay checks that come in once a week, and I really enjoy that the money is much better then the part time pay I was getting while working and in college.
But back to my 90 day review - I’ve been going through all of the projects that I’ve been given over the past 90 days, and evaluating how well I’ve done on them and how well I’ve allocated my time. These are all really evaluating yourself on. Especially being me, and thinking that you can always do better then you’ve done. So, with all of this in mind, I’m having to make comments to why I graded myself the way that I did, and it’s kind of making my resolutions for the next 90 days (I know it was just yesterday that I said I would not make any resolutions, but now it’s not personal, it’s my job). I guess I’ll just have to wait and see how my boss thinks I’ve done over the last 90 days, and I’m hoping it goes as well as it did on the first 90 day review. I know that I’ve been working my butt off to learn the market and try to keep up with the industry, so maybe he’ll notice and be as happy as he was during my last review. Time will only tell on this one. My review is scheduled for this Thursday… tomorrow.
Oh, another work subject. I’m having to go down to Auburn this weekend. Yeah, 3.5 hours in a car to sit and listen to some old man talk about branding the market to see your company as a leader. I’m thinking it’s going to be an interesting class. I just know that driving that long to sit in a class room is going to make me really sleepy. So if you think about it, please keep me in your prayers during my traveling.
Well, now I have to get back to work. My report is done updating.
