our boss grades us on key metrics and assigns us grades such as needs improvement/spellcheck/heart/and wow

 

last year some of us got hefty bonuses and raises

 

others got the tracy wethington rock ™

 

Scrags got in the freshly cleaned litter box, kicked a bunch of litter around, and then got out and promptly took a crap on the waterproof floor mat I keep in the hallway, expressly because he does this so often. He made eye contact, too!

Pros:

Cons:
Extremely tedious and bubbly. After answering pages of bubbles, there is a full page of text to read, followed by more bubbles. Excessive attention/bot checks, including two recaptchas a couple pages apart, an English check that seems designed to trap people, and a somewhat confusing AC on one of the final pages (question set asks about your current state, AC asks about a past state, and the ans...

If you quit, you will forfeit all your TV points to be distributed between the top users.

 

That quit didn't last long.

 

I hereby declare that upon termination of my employment, half of my TV points go directly to @lapetitebaker because her reviews have bullet points and are the best formatted of all TV reviewers.
The other half go directly to @AMindAtTurk for holding my second place spot for me for months.

HAIL SATAN!" and they turned around and left and he hasn't seen another in like a year or so

 

How do you even acquire points?

 

I love how he almost always has the look of "WHAT Grinch?!?! WANNA GO?! LET'S GOOOOOOOOOO."
