Its income.

Our place offers to put some of it into RRSPs, so the tax is less. But we also get 3k+(can).

because they pay you, you get paid. just like your salary.

Our bonuses are taxed at 47% if they come as a seperate check. Some weird tax thing.

I got a pat on the back and a "Merry Christmas", does that qualify as a Christmas bonus? 😕

Do they normally give you a pat on the back and a "Merry Christmas?" No? Then it's a bonus! 🙂

My boss gave all of us at the shop $50 cash before we left work today. Just 5 of us that work there, not including the 2 owners/bosses. First Christmas "bonus" I've ever got. :beer:😀
