My wife got several 5 digit bonuses from the place she used to work. She got enough in bonuses to pay for our property and 1/3 of our house. Me I got a frozen turkey.

I make a lot of money for my company so YES, every year that I make them millions they break me off a good chunk or I won’t make them millions anymore. My salary keeps me showing up thru the year, the bonus keeps me coming back. To hell with company keeping it all for the few fat cats at the top, share or I go elsewhere. Pretty easy formula for all.

Merry Christmas.

Its been a long time since I worked for anyone. In my corporate time we went from 1 percent of your annual salary, to a Ham, mine got lost in mail so it was a 8 day old room temp ham...., we did a carving knife set once, logo glasses, logo bourbon glasses, a couple of different jackets with the logo, a laptop case with the logo, a backpack with the logo. Lol. When I had reached the point of sitting at the table with the big boys and had no fear of being fired as that would have been extremely expensive I brought up the issue and was told the reason for not giving money was the the idea that the managers made plenty of money the company felt like the managers would prefer to have something to remember the experience of being part of something.....

I gave out $500 gift cards this year and didn't get a single thank you, better to give than receive I suppose.

Very generous on your part. Don't worry about the thank you's, hopefully they will come in the form of increased productivity, attendance and positive attitudes.
