Last year some of those people who got G1s were getting 20k bonuses. I can't know for sure, but I'm betting quite a few people were not overly impressed this year...
 
Got a $50 check for Christmas, and will be getting $500 if I pulled off a 4.0 this semester (if not, it'll be $300). My employer's pretty awesome, they have some nice little perks. It's definitely not a bad gig for part time college work.
 
While I didn't get a Xmas bonus directly from my employer, except a box of chocolates, I did get a $1500 kickback from one of the vendors who's product I sell. Nice preloaded Visa debit card. 🙂
 
Found out that I'm getting an internship offer for this summer w/ the same company from last summer, and that another company will let me know in January sometime if they want to offer me an internship.
 
I didn't get a bonus. They took that away.
They also aren't giving me a raise for my annual review citing "economic concerns". Hurray =\
 
lets see, so far...

1/4 of a months pay
pint of bourbon
bottle of chardonnay
$25 gift card
$15 itunes card
tomorrow off even though it isn't a scheduled holiday off
various desk toys

Sounds like it's time to get cousin Billy Bob to fire up the RV and go kidnap the company president and make him do some explaining to your family! 🙁

 
Got to keep my job so far. I got an unofficial promotion since there is a hiring freeze it's not offical... lovely christmas gift.
 
word has it that management started calling people in ,one by one
to let them know if they were retained. I was off today so I'll get my pink slip
tomorrow on christmas eve,along with a lot of other people.
 
i got a foot in the ass for an xmas bonus.
JOTM club no for me.
no pat on the back
a stern look and a whack
dee da dee da dee.
 
$100 bill!

Beats the hell out of the $25 Darden restaurants gift card I got last year! I *still* haven't used that thing!
