Ok, I received my Christmas bonus and I must say that the amount that I received is brutally horrific to say the least. I am too embarassed to even mention the frugalness of the gift. What a bunch of cheap testicle jugglers.

The organisation I work for gives no Christmas bonus... some people don't even get more than time and a half for working Christmas day.

I had a friend that once got a plastic pen with the company's name on the side of it for his Christmas bonus. I remember him walking down the street in the snow yelling "Merry Fuckin' Pen!!!" Funny shit.

I feel pretty good about my Christmas bonus - 2 ounces of fine outdoor grown kind buds! Gotta love the boss.

He did ask me not to tell anyone else in the company.

Over the holiday I got a beautiful glass bong to enjoy my bonus with. Aahhhh.

I want a 7.5k bonus check! I've been getting plenty of base-salary increases, but still... A 7.5k bonus check would be pretty cool.

It was a year end lunch... with another year end dinner snack at 5:30 for those in fasting.

yeah no christmas bonus didn't hurt me.. I spent about 1K on gifts, and only probably put $300 on the credit cards.

ill just say that mine was pathetic too. $137.00. can you believe that? i wasnt expecting one but we get this long letter about how we will be getting quarterly bonuses based on production etc. EAT ME! the company is skimming the surface trying to stay afloat and they want to give bonuses that just serve to piss everyone off.

merry christmas cheap bastards, and to top it off, we had processed turkey and mashed potatoes....while corporate had a catered party with an open bar and dancing. hmm.....and bring a date too? i couldnt even bring a doggy bag!!!

I got 140 from my boss down at the flower store after being there about 2 months. Also got my job secured for a little while longer than the others who are gettin laid off, which is worth more to me than the $$. Paid off to go in at 6am for 4 weekends straight.
