Annual performance review.. brings up different memories for different people depending on the kind of experience that they have had. However, I am not writing about that.. its wayyy toooooo booooooring. I had a weird thought the other day ( ya ya big surprise I know.. hardy har har). Anyways, the analogy goes something like this..
Think of a sugarcane that gets picked up by the Elephant. For a while he is high up in the air, away from his roots and enjoys the brief view of the world from the new vantage point.
Soon however it is thrust down the throat, chewed till it is bone dry and travels further downhill. There it finds itself surrounded by what it thinks are lesser grass, shrubs and root but at this point he is indistinguishable from them. This process of assimilation extracts all that is left from it and reduces it to a leftover collection of unusable material.
Soon, it passes out as you know what. This is not the end however as at this stage it provides the ideal nursing ground for the next generation of vegetation.
In corporate terms, this progression would be.. Engineer > Analyst > Manager > Upper Management... :-)
