Exceeding Expectations

Open source transcript

WHAT DO I NEED TO DO TO EARN A TOP PERFORMANCE REVIEW?

YOU WOULD NEED TO EXCEED EXPECTATIONS.

OKAY, GREAT.

WHAT DO YOU EXPECT?

THAT'S A MOVING TARGET BASED ON HOW MUCH YOU DISAPPOINT ME AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT.

IF YOU'RE DOING GREAT, I'LL RAISE MY EXPECTATIONS FOR THE FUTURE.

SO... YOU WILL KEEP ADJUSTING YOUR EXPECTATIONS UNTIL IT IS LOGICALLY IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME TO EXCEED THEM?

HAHA! I SUPPOSE THAT'S ONE WAY TO LOOK AT IT.

WHY IS THAT FUNNY?

BECAUSE IM NOT YOU RIGHT NOW.
