LOL,, very true. Sad part is his bonus is 1001% better than mine!!! :bottle:

[Wasch_24]

Yeah, I got nada this year.

Indyrob - Last years Bonus:
1 flat 2" Christmas Ornament, brass in color

Damn, your gift last year was still better than mine this year!

[caudio51]

Mine was monetary this year. This was reinstated in the company after a long time of not happening.

[The Searcher]

we all just get the bird and I don't mean a turkey!

[David]

I get no bonus either. Although they continue to give me a paycheck for 2 months of the summer when I'm not there.

[joshua]

Only been with the company 2 and a half months and I got a $500 check!

I wasn't supposed to get one either. Our companies must like us! :applause::applause:

[indyrob]

I'm not really complaining...because it is a bonus, not an "expected". I thought it was funny enough to post!

[David]

You guys suck...I just dipped into my poker quarters so I can buy a soda tomorrow.

[cvm4]

I guess you're a valued employee :bouncetau

I tore the lining out of the bottom of my loveseat last week for a pack of smokes. I would've checked the couch, but the ol' lady beat me to it.:bouncetau

Take heart. At the rate your bonus's are increasing, next year they might give you a sneaker.

No bonus for me either. I did get my quarterly profit sharing a month early though and that was nice.

[Halon]

As an intern, I don't even get paid for freaking holidays. Which is stupid, cause the whole damn place shuts down so I couldn't even work if I wanted to!

That magnet sounds pretty sweet, tho!:rofl:


TYLER

[tedski]

My company is not doing well this half (we get biannual bonuses) ... so basically I got 20% of my possible amount. After taxes this amounted to about a box of Esplendidos (glass top).

Hey IndyRob ... just think of all those thousands of Chinese workers that Reebok employs. That bonus basically doubled their yearly salary!

[Jwrussell]

No such thing as "Christmas Bonus" with this stingy-ass company.

[allanf]

Now that i can relate to.

I"ve never had a bonus of any type...

[Moglman]

I got to apply for my own job! Yay! Fortunately, I got it. Merry Christmas!

Funny you mentioned that...That was the bonus 4 years ago. It was a shoe that wasn't selling well at all. It was brown suede w/ a green vector (reebok's symbol)

I got the skinny on our backpacks, they were left-overs from a back to school promotion last year.

Congrats Mog! Got to be a good feeling. I know plenty that have been downsized and are still having a tough time finding another place somewhere.

[caudio51]

Man, I would rather get nothing than get leftovers from the company.

[Hal]

I got a bonus when I worked for the computer store but since going to work for the school 11 years ago I haven't gotten one since. And I HAVE TO WORK ALL SUMMER DAVID!!! :angerFU:


*sigh*

:grin:

[Jagstownville]

Ummm,,, from someone who has only gotten 1 bonus in 5 years,,,, I will take the leftovers versus nada! :sadpace:

[Matthew]

Hey bros - go home Friday night and give yourselves your own bonus and fire up one of your best smokes! Happy Holidays!

Update: I wasn't expecting it since I just got my PS check but they DID give me a bonus today! WooHoo!
I sense another box of habanos in my future.

Nice Brian...my addy is in my profile. :hysterica

[Jwrussell]

LMAO @ Todd. Mooch!!!

Ignore him Brian...and check my profile instead! :wink:

[scarecrow]

I dont have a job right now....


Me either. Missing the Christmas dinner and party at my old job today.

It'd be nice if they sent me a Christmas bonus. They only gave me one week severance after 13 years.

[Jwrussell]

Man that sucks! Loyalty counts for less and less these days in the job market, I just don't get it.

[caudio51]

Damn that's a bunch of crap!
