Won't say how much, but it was quite nice(As in able to buy a nice projection HDTV nice ;)). Cool thing was that my employers asked me how much I thought I should get and I named my price and they told me that it was pretty much right on the money what they were planning on offering.

Yay! Now I'm gonna go celebrate by playing 9 holes of golf :)

My work had BETTER give me a FAT bonus next paycheck. I've been working my ass off and have been doing enough to have earned a decent chunk of commission that my dad is getting.

Put it this way, I'm quite satisfied with what I'm being offered. I by no means undercut myself.

Ha! It was originally going to go twords my fishing kayak...but that got 'nixed by the other half as being "frivolous". We settled on killing part of my student loans and buying a treadmill we've been wanting for over a year. Not as fun or as cool as a big ass TV, but hey, this was just a first quarter bonus. I've still got three more to go! Too bad it only took me damn near three years to get switched over to the "bonus system".
