Stop making me justify my paycheck
I don't want a yearly performance review. I don't want to spend two hours filling out a form about my "top accomplishments" like I forgot what I worked on all year. You saw the work. You paid me. That was the agreement.
I also don't want to invent five ways I should magically do more next year for the same money. If I mess up, tell me when it happens. If I'm doing fine, stop asking me to write essays about it.

Still, it's nice to dream...
