Do you get a Christmas money bonus?

[squire]

We were gathered together for a break "on the clock" in the lunch room and told that a few of us would be getting a certificate of service which we can put on our resume. I got one. It said "Certificate of Service" in old English font and was signed by my shaft leader. They said such an award normally would come with a $10 gift certificate but corporate cutbacks nixed that.

So if by bonus you mean 8 minutes on the clock and a piece of paper then yes, yes I get a bonus.

A slap in the face would save the paper and have the same effect

Dude it was kind of outrageous. Stores after hours usually don't have that much electricity but the entire time this was happening I was kinda waiting for something wild to happen. Like they start laughing and say jk. My friends at work said the same thing. I mean I got an autograph from a guy that makes 85 cents more per hour and then everybody clapped and I went back to work for two more hours.

Anyways yeah pretty much a slap in the face.

Full Tilt is giving me a 600 dollar end of year bonus. Yeah baby.

[MannyIsGod]

My friends boss is cheap but last year he gave out iphones worth 400 bucks. My friend was happy until she relized the iphone cost 3 times more a month for service than her old one.

If you don't get a x-mas bonus or really a end of the year bonus you should look for another job. Im sure there are some legit reason in some cases but most cases its disrespectful and shows the employees you don't give a . A few hours off durning the Holidays is not a bonus. Companys who do that generally have no use for the employee durning the x-mas season any reason.

lol what?

There are a lot of people who are going to be happy just to have jobs in a couple of months and you're telling them to quit over a bonus? Leave the life coaching to B2B cause you're doing it all wrong.

[MannyIsGod]

Damn squire you didn't even get the reach around. Thats harsh.

Christmas is not about getting a damn bonus.

Get the off it...it was a question. If you don't wanna answer it, don't.

If the thread le was "Is Christmas About Bonuses?" then we wanted to hear you.

It wasn't.

[JudynTX]

would that be with PAY ????

Yes, with pay.

I just take my hubby's checkbook and write myself a hefty bonus check every year.

Nice! So you "work" for your husband?

[mrsmaalox]

Nice! So you "work" for your husband?

Heck no! I don't even live with my husband I suppose it's more like "severance pay"!

That was my answer so And this isn't your thread.

[MoSpur]

We use to, but not anymore.

[bus driver]

we usually get a bonus but added to our regular pay, but this year they just cuts us a check. Same amount though.

[MrChug]

That was my answer so And this isn't your thread.

Your answer didn't even answer the question and YUP, and your answer was in stupid.

I'll take that as a no.

[JudynTX]

I'll take that as a no.

Why are people arguing over an xmas bonus?

[MannyIsGod]

Because thats how Spurstalk rolls.

Meanies

- i'm amazed at how people don't get one - law firms always give a "year-end" bonus (at least the ones i've worked for)

mine will be 7.5% ($6k)

[JoeChalupa]

I've actually only received a Christmas bonus a few times in all my years of employment so I'm surprised by how many are surprised that many employers don't give Christmas bonuses.

Somebody got upset because they didn't answer the question correctly?

[ATRAIN]

no bonus, but "winter shutdown week" is from christmas eve to new year's day, and is paid double time + one half. very nice.

thats pretty nice

My last job we used to get a bonus. My current job lol yeah right. I have to work xmas day and the day after (which is observed as a holiday here) so I get double time and a half along with being on call the weekend after (getting 24 hours of OT for that). Last year I did that for Xmas and new years with no time off and made around 3 grand in OT. That was a bonus for me.

Good grief!

I have never received a cash bonus…When the company has made huge profits they gave us a family day off with pay…
