    20 (牛马版) annual reviews&self-evaluation reports 年终总结有意义吗

It’s always the same: I say I’ve done great, and they say, "Good job, here’s your bonus." 说实话，我觉得其实没什么意义。每年都是一样的：我自吹自擂完了公司表示“干得不错，奖金给你”。 A: Ha, right? It feels more like a formality than an actual review. Like, do they even remember what I did last month? 哈哈，对吧？感觉只是个形式，根本没什么实质性评估。我都怀疑他们是否记得我上个月干了什么 B: Exactly! I think it’s just a way to make us feel like we’re actually accomplishing something. 可说呢！我觉得就是一种让我们觉得一年到头干了点什么的办法而已。 Self-evaluation reports: A report where you get to brag about your achievements... and maybe hide your mistakes. Conversation 2 C: Have you started your self-evaluation yet? 你开始写述职报告了吗？ D: Oh, please! It’s basically just an opportunity to inflate my own ego. I’ll be like, "I’ve exceeded expectations!"—even if I’ve barely made it through some days. 害！这基本就是一个自吹自擂的机会。我一般都写“我超额完成目标！”但其实有的时候都感觉挺不过去了。 C: Same! I always end up writing stuff like, “I’m constantly improving my communication skills,” when really I’ve just been replying to emails all day. 我也是！我写的是“我在不断提高沟通技巧”，其实就是整天回回邮件而已。 D: Haha, exactly! I think the real goal is to sound like we’re doing more than we actually are. 一模一样！我觉得述职报告的目的就是听起来让人觉得我们干的比实际的多。
