The Most Wonderful Time of the Year - Sequel

Once again, it's corporate performance review time. I love this season so much that I cannot help but to break out in song. Please join me in part 3 of this series and sing along with the Andy Williams classic. Lyrics (new) are given below:

It's the most wonderful time of the year

With the cogs self-assessing

And everyone stressing to cover their rears

It’s the most wonderful time of the year

It's the hap-happiest season of all

With those budgets depleting your best bet is seeing

Your friends take a fall

It’s the back-stabbingest season of all

There’ll be ranking and rating

Some spanking, berating

And ear stinging words of reproach

There’ll be forced distributions

And pay diminution

Because that’s the standard approach

It's the most wonderful time of the year

There’ll be much missile throwing

And corporate line toeing when due dates are near

It's the most wonderful time of the year

There’ll be ranting and raving

Some childlike behaving

And ear stinging words of reproach

There’ll be forced distributions

And pay diminution

In line with the standard approach

It's the most wonderful time of the year

There’ll be corporate line toeing

And much whistle blowing to sabotage peers

It's the most blunder filled time

There’s a corporate ladder to climb

Some will knuckle under big time

Though pay raises are less than a dime

Oh the most wonderful time … of the year
