I've been told a few times to write my own NCOER. To this I replied, "I will provide you with input of what I have done during my rating period, but I will not do your job for you." Because one time I had to push the issue up the Chain of Command, I received a NCOER which virtually said I could breath and was alive. I was lucky, it had no effect on my career, but I know it can happen. Again I call this poor leadership.

The first time I heard this was NCOES of all places. I was surprised but the cadre made a good point: senior leaders often overlook accomplishments and writing your own NCOER is the best way to ensure you're carrer is documented

I was once asked to do a self evaluation by my supervisor, as the agency I was working for. I told him that if I hadn't done anything that stood out during the course of the year, all I deserved was a meets expectations for coming to work everyday and doing my job, and I declined to submit the self evaluation. For some reason, he gave me exceeds on it.
