I've had a rubbish day
:(:( I had my fortnightly 1:1 this morning and my line manager told me that his boss(US-based) doesn't rate me because I'm not an extrovert :mad: Even though I can do his stupid job blindfolded with my hands tied behind my back and we've only met face-to-face once in the last 18 months :mad::mad::mad: I wasn't very productive for the rest of the day... funny that...

Absolutely - worst manager I've ever had... what was more inappropriate was that he told me that VP didn't rate one of my colleagues either (and named him :eek:)Mortgage at highest (April 2008): ~£195,000
