Nope.

StatsManD got it taken away from us.
Then he quit and got his CA welfare check to pay for all his presents.

Companies have been turning to lump sum payments, bonuses, Christmas bonuses, signing bonuses, etc. rather than increasing base wages as a way to hold down holiday pay and retirement.

So yeah, I got $1000.

I hope not.

My boss gave $100 bonuses last year for public show to our company's clients. And then in January cut our paychecks by 1/3.

Lucky, I'm moving on to a better company next year.

Thanks, I got a chuckle out of that.

Still no bonus. Me sad. So sad.

not really brag-worthy, but better than nothing. it'll almost pay for the stupid ****ing parking pass I have to buy every month just to work at this place.
