WHAT? YOU HAVE NO ACCOMPLISHMENTS THIS MONTH???

WHAT DID YOU DO FOR THE PAST THREE MONTHS?

WELL, I SPENT MUCH OF THAT TIME CORRECTING MISCONCEPTIONS THAT YOU GAVE TO OUR CUSTOMERS.

I SPENT A MONTH WORKING ON AN OBJECTIVE THAT YOU FORGOT TO TELL ME DIDN'T MATTER.

I FLEW TO THE WRONG CITY FOR A MEETING BECAUSE YOU CONFUSED HOUSTON WITH AUSTIN.

AND I UPGRADED YOUR HOME COMPUTER SO YOU WOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY SOMEONE TO DO IT.
