This week's work task is

This week's work task is setting "priorities" or bi-annual objectives. Rather than actually setting substantial/measurable objectives, I'm complaining about online. Ironic part is that the activity used to be the guide by which an individual's performance was rated and the output determined one's raise, bonus or promotions. Now, not only do you not get any of the previous awards, but HR doesn't even get a copy. Nevertheless, it's a required activity. I'm tempted to include an objective that reads somewhat close to;

Willing to kiss as much butt as is required to maintain employment, feed my wife and kid and meet all my bills. Layoffs scare me and am willing to eat nettles and walk on glass to stay employed. Will work 12 hours a day for 8 hours of pay, take no vacation, work sick and take on the work of every other out-going employee who performs a like task.

All the other "objectives" will be manipulated outputs from the Dilbert website. Example: "It's our responsibility to professionally disseminate principle-centered intellectual capital" or "Our mission is to efficiently leverage existing professional paradigms so that we may continually initiate competitive content"
