What on Earth can/should an employee write other than "I'll come in when expected and do my work to the best of my abilities while being professional?"
I'm certainly not writing anything about my personal life because that's personal and, quite frankly, none of your business. I have a tragic backstory that I don't want to share with coworkers. It's my job to overcome my past and be effective and productive at work, not everyone else's job to accommodate any unexpected or unprofessional behavior, etc.
- maroonblazer 7y agoThere's a lot more to working relationships than "I'll come in when expected and do my work to the best of my abilities while being professional". There's a whole host of instruments that more mature companies use to uncover the different working styles and professional psychologies of employees. E.g. knowing that one colleague wants just the facts and isn't interested in the back-story whereas another wants lots of context can be very useful and ultimately help one become more effective professionally.
