Originally posted by Tordan my xmas bonus is only 1% of gross. meh.. better than nothing. what ticked me off this year is that my sister who works for a small architectural firm as a receptionist got a bonus double the amount i did and she only makes half or even lesser than my annual income. the kicker is she started working there in september. i'm hoping for a big xmas present from her.

I think the management idea is that they need the Christmas bonus more and also a Christmas bonus is a better retention tool for certain pay-scale groups of employees (whereas more lucrative general compensation packages work better for retaining higher income employees).

mine are in the form of beer vouchers

my bonus was about 6% of my Salary. Plus the letter stated that there will be hefty raises in 2007.

My Sales Dept increased sales by 38% this year. So its well deserved.

D'oh!! Well how bout loads of crack. Thats my second choice.

No bonus here. My staff get bonuses, the two levels of management above me get bonuses, but me - not so much. I get very cranky around bonus time. Everyone at work talks about what they will do with their bonuses, and I sit there and place a hex on them

PS middle management is C R A P

We receive very nice gift certificate to our choice among many restaurants, jewellery stores and other stops (there are like 10 to chose from). Plus we all get like a 20-30 pound turkey!

Im jealous of you though Laura I wish we could chose a store like Chapters or Coles!

That would be my first and MOST WANTED EVER choice! I read a SHITLOAD too... read 3-4 novels in the last 2 weeks!


Last year I used my last two xmas bonuses to buy a very nice Swiss Army watch!

I'd rather work instead getting a week of paid vacation, then be given a lump sum.

Originally posted by EvilTree I think I spent like 400 bucks on books one week.

I've done that a few times, as well.....when I was in school.
