I was forced to give an employee an occasionally misses, [and] was very uncomfortable with it. Now I have to have a discussion about it when I have my QPR meetings. I feel so uncomfortable because in order to meet the bell curve, I have to tell the employee that they missed when I truly don't believe it to be the case. I understand we want to weed out mis-hires/people not meeting their goals, but this practice is concerning. I don't want to lose the person mentally. How do we justify?

"Bobbie had a nickel all his very own. Should he buy some candy or an ice cream cone?“
"Should he buy a bubble pipe? Or a boat of wood?“
"Bobbie sat and wondered, Bobbie sat and thought. What would be the NICEST thing a nickel ever bought?“"He might buy a bean bag or a top to spin. He might buy a pin-wheel to give to little Brother. Or should he buy, thought Bobbie, a little pencil box?"
