"Yes, I understand. I will be sure to take extra care in future projects."
No... that isn't what I wanted to say.
What I really wanted to say was something more along the lines of, "could you just listen to me for once!" or "instead of just stating the obvious can't you give me some suggestions!". But, judging from his attitude what he wanted was not a conversation, but just to fulfil his obligation and finish the performance review as quickly as possible. That is, his mind was already made up before I entered the room.
While restraining my tounge, I walk back to my desk. I've only been away for a few minutes, yet I come back to dozens of emails and missed calls all from a single person.
Unfortuately, they aren't from anyone that I want to be receiving them from.
There's a higher-up in the company that I am often assigned to projects with. She always comes to me with unreasonable deadlines and requests and will shout verbal abuses accompanied with some harassment if I don't end up meeting her expectations.
To avoid that, I find myself working until midnight some days of the week and I constantly worry about if and when I will hear from her throughout the day. Upon seeing the missed calls and emails, my stomach sinks and I feel uncomfortable. I've always been a passive person and dealing with this person is just the worst matchup for me.
If this were a game, I would cast apprasial and compare stats upon running into some problems. Aaand, It would probabaly go something like this.

Yeah, that looks about right. The pretend apprasial once again confirms my fears. It's that intimidation skill that messes with me.
Well, I guess I'll try developing a resistance to intimidation skill.

Threads
A legendary landmass long since believed lost to the world reappears in the seas of the island nation of Annitou, setting off a frantic race by the surrounding governments to acquire its allegedly powerful secrets. From every corner of the map comes settlers, merchants, pirates, and the strongest enforcers of each country's sovereignty: the Agents, individuals with unique, sometimes seemingly divine talents which can rival the power of even an army. However on the lawless frontier of the newly rediscovered island of Jinchi, national loyalties and personal ambition are put to the real test. Threads follows the interconnected stories of individuals from all strata of this world, from the lowly in-training cadets, to the mighty and seemingly invincible generals, to the otherwise innocuous and 'powerless' civilians.
