            CBA to read the whole thread.

            No such thing as a victim, you make yourself a victim. Grow a pair.

            HTH.

                I don't seem to have appraisals either. I have a quarterly meeting with my boss where we discuss all my staff and why they should or shouldn't get bonuses , then at the end I just get mine with no feedback.

                This time I got a pay increase, a shed load more shares and more responsibility where in truth I wanted less responsibility, less hours and quite happy to take a pay cut as long as I didn't have to travel. But like a good little permie I kept my mouth shut .

                You know what they say about assumptions!
