Below are quotes taken from federal government employee performance evaluations. If you've ever had to do performance evaluations yourself, you'll get a kick out of these bosses' remarks.

If you find yourself at a loss for words in the future, go ahead and plagiarize one...

1. "Since my last report, this employee has reached rock-bottom and has started to dig."

2. "I would not allow this employee to breed."

3. "This employee is really not so much of a has-been, but more of a definite won't be."

4. "Works well when under constant supervision and cornered like a rat in a
trap."

5. "When she opens her mouth, it seems that it is only to change feet."

7. "This young lady has delusions of adequacy."

8. "He sets low personal standards and then consistently fails to achieve them."

9. "This employee is depriving a village somewhere of an idiot."

10. "This employee should go far, and the sooner he starts, the better."

11. "Got a full 6-pack, but lacks the plastic thingy to hold it all together."

12. "A gross ignoramus -- 144 times worse than an ordinary ignoramus."

13. "He doesn't have ulcers, but he's a carrier."

14. "I would like to go hunting with him sometime."

15. "He's been working with glue too much."

16. "He would argue with a signpost."

17. "He brings a lot of joy whenever he leaves the room."

18. "When his IQ reaches 50, he should sell."

19. "If you see two people talking and one looks bored, he's the other one."

20. "A photographic memory but with the lens cover glued on."

21. "A prime candidate for natural de-selection."

22. "Donated his brain to science before he was done using it."

23. "Gates are down, the lights are flashing, but the train isn't coming."

24. "He's got two brains cells, one is lost and the other is out looking for it."

25. "If he were any more stupid, he'd have to be watered twice a week."

26. "If you give him a penny for his thoughts, you'd get change."

27. "If you stand close enough to him, you can hear the ocean."

28. "It's hard to believe he beat out 1,000,000 other sperm."

29. "One neuron short of a synapse."

30. "Some drink from the fountain of knowledge; he only gargled."

31. "Takes him 2 hours to watch '60-minutes'."

32. "The wheel is turning, but the hamster is Dead."
 
That was hysterical. Now I have to go and e-mail it to everyone I know. Thanks.
 
As a supervisor, I've had to do a "few" employee evals in the past few years, and I have actually been tempted to use a few of those, but I DID use one something like # 16: "He would argue with a signpost."

But I wrote down: "He would argue with a rock, and then spend the rest of the day trying to figure-out why the rock won the arguement."

.:D.
 
My favorite:

I'm certain that no employee could better fill this position.
 
I'm surprised not to see an old standby:

"Anyone would be lucky to get this employee to work for them."

But I like the "rat in a trap" line even better. :D

Great post PhilL.
A buddy of mine was in Iraq for 15 months. He doesn't smoke, use intoxicants, or cheat on his wife. But he loves a good joke. So I forwarded every comic post from this forum to him. And he would e-mail me back telling me how he appreciated the post. I am not going anywhere with this, just thought I'd mention it. But if you know anyone in a tough situation a little humor can help. :D
