Today is the regular on-sale date for Working Assets on Amazon and elsewhere. You can order the book at a bookstore to pick up in person too.
The great thing about this career guide for peers living with mental illnesses is that it contains groundbreaking information. What I wrote in this book hasn’t been talked about before.
One tactic I talked about was asking your supervisor for feedback on your performance year-round. Instead of waiting passively to hear what they wrote in your performance review.
It shouldn’t be that you’re displeased with a performance review if you think you’ve been a stellar employee. Only chances are you and I aren’t going to receive a fair assessment.
This is how it goes: a hard worker could be rated unsatisfactory in the category Amount of Work Performed.
You don’t want your performance evaluation to come as a surprise with the even ruder awakening of a 2 percent pay raise.
In the 1990s I told a boss what Peg Bundy told her husband Al on the TV show Married with Children: “If I wanted peanuts, I’d fly Delta.”
Thirty years later I remember this comeback. I don’t recommend you act impertinent on the job.
