Hello, my people! I was recently asked to provide input on an NCOER we're writing for an E-6 who recently transferred to our shop. His losing unit did not write him an outgoing NCOER, so of course it falls on us to pick up the pieces.
The losing unit sang his praises, offering gushing adoration for this guy. But when we pressed them for bullets, they were unable to come up with anything concrete. Their failure to point to specific accomplishments more or less matches our observation of him.
He's a guy that would probably do well if we still had SP6 as a rank. So when my counterpart (his new rater) asked for bullets, this was my tongue-in-cheek reply:
* Can successfully inhale and exhale in sequence without supervision
* Routinely laces boots without causing loss of circulation to feet
* Surfs social media on his cellphone better than any other E-6 I've observed
* Maintains steady temperature in whatever chair he is occupying
So I thought I'd throw this topic out to all of you. Any humorous evaluation comments you've seen, or wish you could've included in writing one? Please share!

I usually refrained from writing them on evals and wrote them on counseling to back the eval. I once wrote of an LT ; "I would rather not have this officer follow me into combat".

*tongue-in-cheek comments follow* NOT one's I would write THESE ARE NOT TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY....(trust me I am sure there are people that WOULD take these seriously)
*Can circulate blood to brain
*Can stand AND sit without supervision
*Can blink both eyes effectively
*Is able to dress himself (occasionally)
*Is able to run in place
*Is able to run his/her mouth without being told to do so
*Consistantly arrives late to formation without being told to do so
*Consistantly passes the buck and accepts NO responsibility for own actions
how are those?

These are all hilarious examples of "negative" bullet comments. One of the better ones I saw (for an NCO who was unquestionably stellar) was a Senior Rater Bullet that read, "In addition to his [already] unmatchable leadership skills, he rides a totally bad ass Harley Davidson."

Had a senior rather write on a Cpt's OER that if he could put a lower block he would.

Along these lines, I once had a comment on a very bad OER for "living with a woman not his wife, exhibiting moral terpitude".
(*we were engaged at the time)
Without my knowing, the commander and his deputy called in my supervisor and told her to rate me based upon my job performance and the character of my service - best OER I ever got.
To see the humor in the above, I need only say that Bill Clinton was President at the time.
