I just found out that I got a bonus this year. Just wondering with the recession in force if there are others that got one, or just got the shaft.

EDIT: This was supposed to be a poll!! Oh well, how do you make a poll in your thread?

Whatever the opposite of a bonus is, that's what I got.

Based on your description, I think bonus may be fitting.

"Hey. If any of you are looking for any last-minute gift ideas for me, I have one. I'd like Frank Shirley, my boss, right here tonight. I want him brought from his happy holiday slumber over there on Melody Lane with all the other rich people and I want him brought right here, with a big ribbon on his head, and I want to look him straight in the eye and I want to tell him what a cheap, lying, no-good, rotten, four-flushing, low-life, snake-licking, dirt-eating, inbred, overstuffed, ignorant, blood-sucking, dog-kissing, brainless, dickless, hopeless, heartless, fat-ass, bug-eyed, stiff-legged, spotty-lipped, worm-headed sack of monkey shit he is. Hallelujah. Holy shit. Where's the Tylenol?"

Our company model is mostly commission based and has performance based monthly and quarterly bonuses. So technically I only got a $50 Best Buy card as my "Christmas bonus". But really I got $6500 in bonuses throughout the year.

Funny because you do work for GM or Ford ... or funny because it's funny.
Sal Paradise

I just got a bartenders set gift and a $500 bonus that I was not expecting. So that was nice.

Especially since our companies assets under management have depleted by almost 30 million in the 6 months I have been here.

I just got $500 and a $50 supermarket gift card. Not bad considering I get my sales bonus in a few weeks for the 4th quarter.

We get our bonuses in March. They call them STI's (short term incentives.) I was slated to get $1000 last year but we got paid 153% of our bonus which was awesome. This year, it is based on my salary. If we meet our targets I get 8% of my salary but a third of it will be in company stock that I have to hold for a year. With the economy, I would normally say we will not meet our targets but since we will merge with another company next year I have a feeling that the big brass will find a way to put on paper that we met it. $4800 (well $3200 if you don't count the stock) will be nice in the spring.
