KPI, or Key Performance Indicator, is basically sukatan. Ginagamit siya para malaman kung “okay ka ba” based sa output, visibility, at results at tuwing Feb 14, parang ganun din ang love at ganda.

Sa episode na ’to ng May Thoughts Ako, pinag-usapan natin kung paano nagiging metrics-driven ang pagiging attractive at pagiging in a relationship tuwing Valentine’s Day. Yung subtle pressure na i-present ang love life mo, i-package ang saya mo, at i-justify na “okay naman kami” kahit wala ka namang dapat patunayan.

As an accounts person, sanay ako sa KPIs, dashboards, at evaluation pero napansin ko lang na… hindi naman lahat ng relasyon kailangan ng reporting. Hindi lahat ng tahimik, red flag, at hindi lahat ng hindi visible, kulang.

Medyo bitter. Medyo self-aware. At very much pang-Feb 14 kahit may jowa ka naman talaga.
