Chistmas Bonus--Still waiting...UPDATE: Am getting one!

[DuallyX]

Today was payday and now extra check in the envelope.

Been waiting on that money for some of my Christmas shopping.

I can't rememeber in years past if we didn't get our bonus til right before Christmas, but I'm getting nervous.

Have you gotten your bonuses yet?

Update: I finally just asked about it...apparently we should get them by end of day tomorrow or first thing tomorrow morning. New HR person is just a little slow calculating everyone's bonuses. Bonusi? Boni? Bonususes?

yah right.

State workers...if we ever get a bonus, the tax payers would crap themselves...
but the stupid senators and reps...they get to vote on their own pay raise.

government is BS.

We just started a new firm in November, so I can't imagine bonuses are in the cards for us.

I understand that, but our company has done very well and certainly is able. They threw a managers x-mas party last week (which I thought was a little bit "us and them"), so certainly I can expect a bonus, as I have the last 4 x-mas' I've been here...

LoL! My wife already proposed pulling a National Lampoon and kidnapping the boss(es) if the bonus sucks.

 

[oddyager]

There is no such thing as a bonus with this agency... unless you are in executive management or enjoy kissing their collective a$$es.

 

[monk3y]

No bonus and don't think I'm getting one

 

[Phoenix15]

We got ours last week. What little there was to speak of. Maybe they are waiting on the last day of work before Christmas?

well, that certaintly isn't a good sign if they are segregating you....

 

[slag]

Sure did. A 1 yr subscription to the Jelly of the Month club.

I?d like Frank Shirley, my boss, right here tonight. I want him brought from his happy, holiday slumber over there on Melody Lane, with all the other rich people, and I want him brought right here with a big ribbon on his head. And, I want to look him straight in the eye, and I want to tell him what a cheap, lying, no-good, rotten, floor-flushing, lowlife, snake-licking, dirt-eating, inbred, overstuffed, ignorant, blood-sucking, dog-kissing, brainless, (bad word deleted), hopeless, heartless, (another bad word deleted), bug-eyed, stiff-legged, spotty-lipped, worm-headed sack of (really bad word deleted) he is! Hallelujah! (One final bad word deleted.) Where?s the Tylenol

For our Christmas "bonus", management bought a cd player and 3 cds, which play on the intercom over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over...

Were I to ever get an actual monetary bonus, I would definitely know it was a frosty morn in Hell.

 

[imported_griffis]

My bonus was 3% of the salary, muuahhhaha, gotta love the holidays

 

[yllus]

I've only been employed here for 6 months, but nevertheless:

- Apple iPod Nano 4GB
- $100 gift certificate to Best Buy
- Christmas gift basket
- My impending 6% raise I required on accepting the job offer kicks in at the end of the month

I :heart: my workplace.

No, no it's not. But that's how things have been headed around here.

In other news, I've selected 5 places that I'm sending my resume and portfolio to next week...

 

[Modeps]

we dont get bonuses until the end of the fiscal year.
