Must shine ka?

This is a personal protest against the work demand (boss's demand..more like it..) that requires everybody to shine, be visible, be noticeable, create value, have niche skills/ area of expertise bla...bla..bla..

Outshine the shining stars? Puhleez..and ceramic plaque I found. Hang it on my cubicle wall..

I always feel harassed when the time for performance review and leadership feedback is approaching . And the email with subject 'Are you ready to shine?' makes me feel burdened. I just want to complete my work quietly, boleh tak?
