I'm just in the process of doing staff appraisals and I can't promise that some of these won't get recycled.

Yes, I know it's not 100% professional, but ..........

:-D :-D :-D

Our appraisal forms were always given to us, the employee whose appraisal it was, to read and sign as seen.

I had a glowing reference rom a manager once, M can do this, that etc,then he wrote:
'But I don't know what she can't do'...

Says more about the manager than me :-D

They can be on appraisals as the they don´t have to be shown ..more like notes for the employer.
CV´s can be amusing
An amusing story about staff already in place. I used to have hanging blackboards in my pub (seen from both sides) I wrote on the outside all the offers on the inside I wrote "it´s harder to pretend to do nothing than actually work" and on the other with date I wrote if you don´t come and tell me about this it means you haven´t done your job come and see me for your P45. I out of 4 staff told me they had seen it straight away another took 2 weeks.

Paula, I realised that was a true one but I was talking more about appraisals than CVs yours was funny. A lot of people don't know how to write a CV.

Rose that is awful.

As a first reporting officer I once put, a tidy desk is the sign of a tidy mind and ********'s desk is never tidy so I worry that s/he will ever find his/her work. My first reporting officer, second on the report I did, hauled me over the coals for putting something negative on the report. actually the rest of the report was good, a good worker, good employee, but the desk was always a shambles. I wasn't happy about that. :-(

Ann, I'm pretty sure they're just made up :-)

However on my appraisal by a 'training manager' after my first day with a company, which I saw several years later, it said "Not especially sparkling in looks or personality", crushing! :-D

AnninG The one I posted was actually on CV


:-D

They are all funny but if from real appraisals I have to say we would never have been allowed to put any of those on somebody's appraisal.

Wonderful Rose. I like the one about the hamster :-D :-D

so funny :-D :-D :-D

They are all great :-D :-D

Rose, some more

"He is depriving a village somewhere of their idiot"

"A well balanced person, has a chip on both shoulders"

"Takes him two hours to watch sixty minutes"

"If you stand close enough to him you can hear the oceans"

"If he were any more stupid he'd have to be watered twice a week"

"He fell out of the stupid tree and hit every branch on the way down"

"He is an experiment in Artificial Stupidity"

lolol Paula :-D

Rose They are so funny. , I have seen some hilarious CVs over the years, some certainly would breach the trades description act for truth and accuracy. One particularly sticks in my mind was where asked about "Interests/Hobbies/achievements" one young women said she "Was one of Ken Dodds Diddy men in Pantomime". Bless her, I am sure she went on to higher things.

:-D :-D :-D

:-D :-D :-D Rose, especially
