This is an "I agree, but..." comment.
I agree workers should write down their accomplishments -- throughout the year and in measurable terms -- to improve their performance reviews and resumés.
But, and it's a small butt, workers don't have to write like a freshman English major with a new thesaurus to do this.
Turning, "Worked on marketing budget," into, "Negotiated professional service fees," doesn't impress any but the most vacuous manager. It might be worthwhile if you truly have a low opinion of your audience, but this A-list is for yourself as much as anyone else.
