    I'm finally back! After exams (which went quite well), my MENSA results coming back (I got in! ), my trip to Malaysia, Kenya and Sri Lanka, and two weeks of camp I've found the time to post a bit. For the rest of the term I won't be as active as I used to be but I'll be popping in and out.

    It's good to be back

    Bad news: the confirmation didn't happen.
    So they have given me three choices:
    1. Extend the review for one month, that is till 1st December and prove that I'm fit for that position.
    2. Go back on calls as a 1st line tech support rep.
    3. Resign.

    And I'm thinking which option to choose...

    Edit: in case you wonder what's the harm in going with option 1.
    Well, there are some a**holes you just can't work with.
    Even if I clear the review and get confirmed, this issue is going to arise at the time of my half yearly appraisals as well. If you know what I mean!
    I'm just so p*ssed off ATM.

    </>rant over.

    Bad news, but that's life.
    Option 1 is the feasible solution, and your employer also want this. Just not to confirm the promotion so quickly. It happens there. Dont worry Dinesh! Just prove that you are needed there, and you can do it, for sure.

    Exactly. I wonder what would have happened if a salary increase wasn't in the equation?

    As regards Appraisals (or PDRs - Personal Development Reviews), I personally don't agree with them. To me, they are a complete waste of time, nothing seems to come out of them, and I describe them as "A tool designed to get people's backs up against each another".
