Had lunch with Derek from work at Jellyfish today, as we were both "working from home" and he lives near me. I had some fairly spicy pasta with salmon and chillies. I know it did say chillies, but I was not prepared. Anyhow turned out to be OK.
We did talk some work, as apparently the big boss in APAC, has gone out with a message saying to rate any employee over "solid" needs written approval from two line managers above each other. We were both quite un-happy with that as we both had "excellent" previously. Given the 2 days to get the performance reviews done, there were not much time to argue. Apparently it has something to do with no pay-rises being given this year, and if anyone had documented evidence that they were doing very well, there could be too much pressure. So neither of us were very happy and agreed "what is the point of this process then"?
At the table next to us were two people having lunch "together", each one working on their own Laptop...
Did not manage to do much catching up as day was very busy outside lunch. Still have 35 un-read e-mails and it is time to wind down ;-(
