Quote by Guy Browning

Appraisals are where you get together with your team leader and agree what an outstanding member of the team you are, how much your contribution has been valued, what massive potential you have and, in recognition of all this, would you mind having your salary halved.

Appraisals are where you get together with your team leader

Summary

This quote sarcastically portrays the inefficiency and unfairness of workplace appraisals. It highlights the irony of employers praising the employees' skills and potential, while simultaneously not adequately compensating them for their contributions by offering a reduced salary. It points out the disconnection between the positive feedback given in appraisals and the actual financial rewards offered, suggesting that the appraisal process often lacks sincerity and fails to recognize employees' true worth.
