You get an envelope from your boss...

[DVad3r]

on Christmas eve, he owns a big trucking company and you are one of his drivers, you've heard from friends that work in the company that he gives pretty good gifts, do you...

 

[Engineer]

[DVad3r]

^ Ahahaha good one, but no, no Mexicans are involved in this! And this company probably won't be going away any time soon, it's Fed Ex

I'd thank my boss, throw the envelope in my bag, and open it when I got open.

 

[Newbian]

Cut a slot in the envelope and shake it to see if anything falls out the card then toss it away.

 

[IronWing]

Get together with other employees and take turns reading the contents allowed. Someone is sure to get super pissed.

My boss did the same thing. I thought it was just a Christmas card, so didn't open it until the next day. Surprise!!

It's not a pay cheque guys it's most likely a bonus

 

[zinfamous]

[destrekor]

If I'm expecting cheerful surprises, I want to know immediately.

Exactly buddy, exactly, it's logical right? The people who voted for 2, what's the reasoning behind it? Or are you guys doing it just for kicks?

I don't trust this company

 

[Ronstang]

I got an envelope on Friday when he came in to tell me to let the guys go early and for all of us to go home and beat the traffic. I opened it the next morning at the bank because it also had a paycheck in the envelope...with a second check which was quite the bit larger than the first.

Pffft, I wrote the instructions for picking up your bonus in there. How will you know which BMW dealership to go to now? You're going to show up on January 2nd and everyone else in the parking lot will have new cars, and you'll feel like a jerk. :awe:

Either way open the letter. If you are laid off, it's never a good time for that news, but the sooner you find out is always better. If you got a bonus, it's usually best to spend it sooner than later if it's in the form of GC's which many service companies do now.
