I've learned that self improvement and self evaluation are good things but it is important to identify what is NOT your fault also. I hate that companies take advantage of people's vulnerabilities. Squirrel you are so hard working!!! If you feel taken advantage of don't be afraid of going to a rival pharmacy.

Squirrel, growly's right about that - the corporations not allocating enough budget for proper pay raises - it sucks but it's been true everywhere I've worked. I've had managers in 3 different companies tell me that, and they always say that they're only "allowed" to give so many people anything above"Meets Expectations" even when they push and argue and try to do it anyway but it gets rejected and they are told to change it. I've had them give me "Meets" in categories where I could tell they wanted to give me higher because of the paragraphs of praise that came along with it. You are such a dedicated, hard worker and should feel so good about yourself!!
