Let's be totally honest for one second... If anyone deserves a christmas bonus, it's me.

I got $120 cash this year, and that's pretty much the same every year.

Mine was $900 last year after taxes.

yet, all you get your gf is soaps and lotions. :P

Sorry to hear that Helen. If it makes you feel any better, I'm a poor graduate student right now, so I'm not getting a christmas bonus either.

sorry to hear about your situation Helen! :shock: ...my last company was like that....they decided to build a new clinic and cancel the summer picnic one year. A bunch of us wanted to still get together and have lunch and chit-chat since we never get the chance to outside of work very often. I asked my manager if those employees that wanted to host a picnic, if we could pitch in, pay for the rental at the park (it was like $35), and host a potluck...all on our own free will. She freaked out and said 'NO!" and then said, 'anybody participating in any picnic/company get together will be fired!' ummm...ok, what a way to build team morale.... :?

:shock: WOW! What the hell? All the guys in our office play football every few weeks. A few times I've sent an email to all the girls suggesting stuff to do and only two people bothered to reply! The rest of them will continue to complain about how there is no team building for the girls! :roll: I work in an office full of hypocrites!

I don't get my bonus until March, or else shit would be totally different. Plus, most of that bonus will be going towards tuition. :roll:

There's only one way I can think of to get a $900 bonus. And it's not appropriate for this forum.

I offered tickets to see The Sex Zombies. She offered to leave and never come back.

Unfortunately, it's not alcohol that makes them a bunch of asswipes. If it was, we might have something in common.

You should run a contest on the porch and give it away. 'Free shipping included for a snuggie type thing.'

If you're asking if they're cocks, then yes. Corporate, fake cocks.

If there are half eaten sandwiches on eBay...this isn't too far-fetched at all.

when i get a bonus, it typically gets paid in march after the audit is done. it's not uncommon, but it's not called a christmas bonus.

A Christmas bonus in March has no influence on me thinking that they are definitely schlong lovers.

I recently left a vet job because the people were so friggin nasty, not so much to me but to my friend who I still keep in touch with. It was a rotten, anxious place to work and I hated it. The bosses used to have parties outside of work and they would invite EVERYONE except my friend and it was so awful because I didn't know whether to hurt her feelings and tell her or to keep it to myself. Now my only boss is my baby girl, hehehe

I think if you do it for one, you do it for all. They should have given you your bonus, that's crappy. :thumbdown:

Thanks :oops: Yep, there's a big clique at work too and they plan stuff amongst them. I could be in it but I don't like any of them either. None of my team like eachother... it's a very strange way to work. One of the girls prides herself on her brutal honesty... however another girl has smelly feet some days :oops: but, rather than telling her, she's taken to telling everyone else. They all comment on everything everyone does. It's all a bit incestual too! I can't stand the bitchy atmosphere... never had to work in one before! They all have eating disorders... even the guys! :shock: :roll:
