APPRAISAL v RESIGNATION

My friend from Malaysia sent me a very cool article on the difference between Appraisal & Resignation.

A engineer asks his boss ' What is the meaning of appraisal? '

Boss : ' Do you know the meaning of resignation ? '

Trainee : ' Yes, I do. '

Boss : ' So let me make you understand what an appraisal is by comparing it with resignation. '



Appraisal:

-> In an appraisal meeting they will speak only about your weakness, errors and failures.

-> During an appraisal you may need to cry and beg for even a 10% pay hike.

-> During an appraisal, they will deny promotion saying that you did not meet the expectation, you don't have leadership qualities, and that you had several drawbacks in reaching objective/goal.

-> There is a 90% chance of not getting any significant incentives after appraisal.


Versus

Resignation:

-> In a resignation meeting they will speak only about your strengths, past achievements and success.

-> In a resignation meeting you can easily demand ( or get more without asking ) more than 50-60% pay-hike !

-> During resignation, they'll say you are the core member of the team; that you are the vision of the company, and so ' How can you go ? '; you have to take the project on your shoulders and lead your juniors to success.

-> There is a 90% chance of getting an immediate pay-hike after you put in your resignation.

Trainee : ' Yes, boss, good enough. Now I know what to do.

When you are about to do my appraisal, I will resign. '

Muahahahahaha. Interesting isn't it for those that are caught in such a situation or have experienced these before.
