So even though it was pretty mild, I still feel like it was inappropriate. I had a mid season evaluation a few days ago and my supervisor was mostly complementary. He did however say that some of my writing for the social media page was too long. I know that he has not personally read the content that I wrote but was instead told about it by my coworkers who have no supervisory authority over me complained about it to him. I feel like too much of the focus lately is on our social media anyway so maybe I’m a bit sensitive to it but I just felt that it was inappropriate for him to be getting material for my evaluation from a coworker.

@annoyedgrunt84 I am sorry you feel that feedback was a reprimand. That must be a tough thing to hear.

I hear that feedback as not being critical of you, but commenting on how to benefit the company most by web posting. I am not an expert but when I do a google search on

there are many many hits. Maybe rather than take their suggestion as a reprimand, maybe you could see it as an opportunity to do your job even better.

I know personally on social media unless I really get engaged in the 1st paragraph I usually don't read beyond that point. Supervisors comment didn't seem like a reprimand but a suggestion. IMO, a reprimand would have been more like "if you don't make your writings shorter we will stop having you do that work" reprimands usually have consequences tied to them otherwise they are thoughtful suggestions meant for possible improvement

This is simply office politics 101 and will never change.
