tarzioo_ Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 'A bear that feels threatened will often display signs of agitation and stress through vocal and/or visual cues such as huffing, popping of the jaws, pacing, swinging of the head or excessive salivation.' Are you causing our resident bear excessive salivation?? Only with my sexiness. Totally joking. And another thing, HOW DARE YOU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-tess. Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 "Not too good,not too bad..right on the cutting edge of mediocre.." It seems that no matter what I do...or thought what I was doing...is never good enough. You get all your flaws and mistakes pointed out and beaten up with them. What is supposed to motivate me to do better? The fear and intimidation that I may lose my job? Is that my motivation? It feels as though no one is able to understand or even relate to what I am going through and dealing with. Funny how listening to Converge relates to this situation and what I'm feeling with the words of "No Heroes": "In my world of enemies I walk alone" Hey man. Sorry to hear about the performance review. Those always stress me out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the lottery wasn't some ploy/ scam by the man to steal from the poor(er) people of the world, I would play twice daily in hopes to win and never work again (until I finished my PhD, then I'd just be bored and need to work).

Yup, I occasionally play knowing full well it will never amount to much. We have 2 higher-ups here today & it always makes me a lil nervous. After 2 peeps were fired 2 weeks ago, you never know.

I'd still work if I won the lottery but I'd be able to do whatever I wanted without worrying about the finances. Travel the world being a photographer would be pretty cool.

And he can pay me handsomely because he's loaded. Good plan! I would probably just stay in school until I'm forty (Fowty) and travel a lot between semesters. Buy houses in countries/ places I love. I'd also give a lot to my family members. I'd probably lose half my money between all my parents, siblings, and in-laws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+hecollec+or Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 I'm doing the lottery this weekend now. You guys have lottery? I dont mean for that to sound ignorant (even tho it does). Scratch-offs & powerball type stuff? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCandless Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 You guys have lottery? I dont mean for that to sound ignorant (even tho it does). Scratch-offs & powerball type stuff? We do, we have a normal lottery once a week which prize is about £15million ($22) which is just in the UK. Then we have a Euromillions which is obviously all the European countries and tha'ts about £100m+ ($150m+). We have all the usual scratch cards and I don't know what powerball is. Aren't your prizes like very high but you get taxed on them (which I don't think we do over here)?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny how listening to Converge relates to this situation and what I'm feeling with the words of "No Heroes": "In my world of enemies I walk alone" I feel like this is exactly what a performance review is supposed to do. If you’re told over and over again that you’re doing super and there’s not one thing you can do to improve then you’ll just become stagnant. I’m involved in reviews at my current job and I always try to pick one thing to focus on for improvement and also highlight an area the person was excelling at. The first time I had to do it I almost did it through email. I was so scared to be critical of someone to their face. Some people might enjoy it but I don't. Being in a creative field especially, I think a tough skin is essential. We have meetings 2x weekly where I sit in a room of 30 people and listen as they pick apart each catalog I’ve done. The first few were brutal, it was so uncomfortable for me. Finally I was like shit, I can’t be taking this so personally, 3 other people besides me proofed this, we all messed up. When someone finds a mistake now I don’t get upset or embarrassed, I just make sure it doesn’t happen again. Getting our flaws and mistakes pointed out is critical to job growth.

I mean still great you won but fustrating you see most of your prize go to someone else. They should advertise it after tax rather than before.
