Maybe It's Time To Seek Other Employment...

The following quotes were allegedly taken from actual performance evaluations:

• "Since my last report, this employee has reached rock bottom and has started to dig."
• "His men would follow him anywhere, but only out of morbid curiosity."
• "I would not allow this employee to breed."
• "This associate is really not so much of a has-been, but more of a definitely won't be."
• "Works well under constant supervision and cornered like a rat in a trap."
• "When she opens her mouth, it seems that this is only to change whichever foot was previously in there."
• "He would be out of his depth in a parking lot puddle."
• "This young lady has delusions of adequacy."
• "He sets low personal standards and then consistantly fails to achieve them."
• "This employee is depriving a village somewhere of an idiot."
• "This employee should go far - and the sooner he starts the better."

These, on the other hand, are reported to be actual lines out of OER (Officer Efficiency Report), which are performance appraisals for the military.
