# it's amazing the shit that can go on behind your back at a workplace, remember your only real workplace responsiblity is ultimately covering your ass
because people do get very two faced and full of crap

and if the review was completely one sided about how badly you've done the job it's not usually a good sign

also, I'd say, that if they wait for a review to tell you how bad your performance is, your direct management is incompetant. utterly incompetant.

If your direct management isn't shit, then someone has decided they don't like you for whatever reason. The "whatever reason" can be absolutely anything. It could even be something simply nothing to do with you.

I'm not trying to pour piss on your parade here, it's just the way things go

# I see what you're saying.
To be fair, they did also say that I was very good at certain things - the skills I need are all there, the last month has seen some very good reports coming in etc.
I'm wondering if it's just me taking everything too much to heart and panicking.
My manager basically said "I know it's stressful, but keep doing what you're doing and improve your communication and you should be ok".
Fingers crossed, eh?

# fingers crossed
just remember that a boss isn't just there to tell you what to do, he's also there to make sure you are able to do what you are meant to do.

it's a distinction that some don't get.

just think happy thoughts, and it's only a job, and there's plenty more out there :D

tho being jobless and destitute is no fun :(

yay \o/

# otherwise you'll wnd up walking out, becoming an unemployed contractor...
...and spending 6 years drifting from one shite short-term job to another, relying on driving a fucking taxi to pay most of the bills.

(whilst having the satisfaction of seeing the company fold completely within 2 months due to the loss of their entire programming team (me), and they inability to get anyone else to work in such a shite environment. if your lucky)
