I just had an annual review, and I was rather surprised at how favorably it turned out. I've been in the hospital a couple of times this year (10 days one time), been blurry on medication sometimes, and my manager appears to have cut me a great deal of slack on it.

Now, I might have expected *some* latitude, but he rated me much higher than I personally would have rated myself.

Well, at least for a while, I'm still employed. :-)
