Christmas bonus anybody

I am getting my P45 for xmass this year

a calendar ,so id guess its worth 2/3 pounds

We get a party every year with free food and drink all night and a hotel room for the night for us and partners, a nice bonus from the bosses twice a year (an extra months wage for me this christmas) and also the customer’s also give us a couple of hundred in a card each to say thanks, I consider myself very lucky after reading what everyone else gets.

Any dust cart drivers on here, they have been remarkably polite this last couple of weeks, the rest of the year they are awkward stroppy pillocks who will not pick any rubbish up or empty the bin if the lid is slightly open or heavy.

I wonder, why the sudden change■■?

I get a calendar at Xmas and the office did organise a meal a few Saturday’s ago at a Chinese restaurant but unfotunately the date clashed with my annual “sticking forks in my eye” night!!!

If they ask for a tip,tell them “Viridor at Ardley”…I’d noticed my bin completely empty for the first time in weeks, time to do Xmas shopping when that happens! :laughing: :laughing:

Usually get a couple of bottles of wine, scotch or a case of beer but I normally give it to the security gateman who works for a cheapskate firm and has crap wages working all over christmas.

Well done trev.

Our drivers get a bottle of choice or crate of beer and some cash…to be decided tomorrow

I’ve heard that we are getting…a cheesecake…better be a strawberry one or i’m gonna have to say summat!!!

Getting nowt from current employer, best I’ve had was a 6 monthly bonus of £300. You got it in June & December, so £600 for the year. The only stipulation was no damage to truck or powder tank.

Yeah right.My christmas bonus will be to be done by 5pm christmas eve.

Big Jon’s brother, Dean, has only worked for his company in Canada for 6 weeks. At their Xmas party all the employees got their Xmas bonus. Dean was well pleased to get $250 cash and $250 in gift cards, plus he won another $100 in a draw. Pretty good for a new guy! He earns a salary of ~ $24 per hour, Monday to Friday, 8 til 5. No overtime. They also get a quarterly bonus depending on how well their firm is doing. One guy with 35 years service was given $35,000.00 in travel vouchers as his long service award at the Xmas do. They were giving out long service awards to people with as little as 5 years service too.

£300 and free meal/ bar for the christmas ‘do’

robroy:
‘… Do you work for a firm who show their appreciation at Christmas for all your hard work …’

Too right I do!

A voucher to spend in the canteen to the princely sum of £2.50 for a fancy-dan dinner.

Only one vegetable comes with that mind, having any more than the (tinned) mixed veg will be extra whilst substituting to the Chicken Curry or the (rat’s coffin) Pasty option means that you can’t have a pudding - which is a slivver of brown ‘fruit’ stuff with an accompanying, anaemic sauce or an ersatz ‘trifle’ presented in a plastic funnel.

It simply oozes ‘Happy Christmas’ - as one might contemplate Caroline Quentin’s M&S variant of the same being less than an advert and more of a full-on ■■■■■■■ event :neutral_face:

I received a text message that christmas present and turkeys are given away today in my place, but as I was home at 7:00am I overslept it :frowning:

But nothing is lost, there is a company party at early january.

Update…just had a text from my TM saying thanks for the help over the last year etc etc and to see w/hse manager as we have something extra…2 bottles of wine, which is nice, but i seem to remember it being a ‘fruit based drink for the lay-deees’! Thats ok though as i had a little Brucie Bonus from our local Asda the other day when getting the xmas food…3 crates of beer for £18…do for me,ta. Gets to till, wifey loading up the belt and says to ya man, shall i put these 3 cases on or are u gonna scan 'em in the trolley? 'I’ll scan ‘em there love’…anyway, trolley loaded to the roof and off we walk. She checks the receipt (as women do :unamused: ) and finds that mushy never scanned it…i knew that but didn’t say as she is the sort that would say ‘u haven’t scanned those’. Tried a couple the other day and i gotta admit, they taste better than normal :smiley:
