I had my 6 month review at work tonight. I got a 3 month, I'll get a 1 year and then yearly after that. At 3 months I was meeting expectations and everything was great. This time, same thing except they think that it takes me too long to get through everything and there are other parts of my job that I haven't done. I let them know it was mostly due to lack of training (and lack of a box cutter), and not wanting to bother management. They said all I have to do is ask and they'll teach me. Plus, they hired two more people after me, so I get done faster than I used to so I should be doing other things and I have time to learn them. If their only problems are that the excellent job I'm doing takes me too long, I need to ask for training, and I need a box cutter, I can live with that! I was also eligible for a raise, which he made it sound like I'm getting and if I do it will start with my next paycheck.
