    Perfect Employee

    The Perfect Employee?

    1 Bob Smith, my assistant programmer, can always be found
    2 hard at work at his desk. He works independently, without
    3 wasting company time talking to colleagues. Bob never
    4 thinks twice about assisting fellow employees, and always
    5 finishes given assignments on time. Often he takes extended
    6 measures to complete his work, sometimes skipping coffee
    7 breaks. Bob is a dedicated individual who has absolutely no
    8 vanity in spite of his high accomplishments and profound
    9 knowledge in his field. I firmly believe that Bob can be
    10 classed as an asset employee, the type which cannot be
    11 dispensed with. Consequently, I recommend that Bob be
    12 promoted to executive management, and a proposal will be
    13 executed as soon as possible.

    Addendum:

    That idiot was standing over my shoulder while I wrote the report sent to you earlier today. Kindly re-read only the odd numbered lines.

    Sounds like me!
    I am an employee. I am on my third job in 6 years in the biz. This new job seems to be cool but i am kinda gun shy cuz the last employers I had Burnt me big time. I kicked ass for them and put out tons of product and they wouldnt pay me what i thought i was worth! And in the end they ended up being jerks cuz I was too motivated to get the company and myself going. There loss! Had to have a little rant there.

    Sounds like you would be great to work for cuz you really appreciate what he does for you. I commend you for that. Employers like you in this industry from what ive experienced are kind of rare.

    Thanks Stevo, you made me laugh..but equally I admire your sense of humour at realising your predicament. We’ve all been there at some point 😕 and there’s no shame (only admiration) in having the abilty to laugh at oneself 😀 😀
