Ok today quite late on in the afternoon, I get told by my boss he wants to complete my professional development discussion and suggests I go online and add the necessary info.  The last day for completion is 30 September.  I can't believe he didn't give me more notice.

Again, what to write?  I've not been through this before.

Firstly the online tool timed out, it took half an hour to log on.  Once I logged on I couldn't click any of the fields to add anything until I asked my boss for some assistance.  The damn thing timed out before I left so I have no idea if it's been uploaded...I will have to check again in the morning.

How can I know what opportunities are available to me unless -

a) they are communicated to me
b) the existing secretarial needs of the company are addressed

It seems like a last minute decision on his part.
