Gloey Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 our office hands out $100 to all secretaries and staff on the day before tgiving! They have bfast brought in and hand out $$$.My Christmas bonus sucks...it was like 250 last year, or maybe even 200. I remember at another firm when I used to get a week and a half's paycheck. The worst thing is here, its called a year-end bonus and they aren't given out till after the first of the year and included in your paycheck so the taxes are higher and you can't even hide it from hubby!

elena_398 Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 My husband gets quarterly bonuses. His last bonus check runs a few thousand as they add the christmas bonus in besides the regular work bonus. It usually comes the end of December Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copados1993 Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 When my husband worked for a pharmicutical company, he would get a very large Christmas bonus. That was wonderful. Now that my husband has joined back up with the military, our Christmas bonus is whatever our normal pay is. There is no such thing as a Christmas bonus. We make 25% of what we did and no bonus! Gotta love that!!!We wouldn't trade it for the world though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fairydustcrissy Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 My husband gets a P&L bonus. If his store profits, he gets a bonus depending on what his profit margin was. If he loses money, no bonus. The crappy thing is, it comes in Amrch/April, and is on his paycheck. So we loose a good chunk to taxes. Last year is was ~800 I believe!

nellyhill Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 DH gets a bonus but I have no idea what it is. This will be his second year and last year bonuses were cut do to a lack of funds (he works at a church and they were building a large sancuary).

outnumbered Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 The credit union on post lets you postpone one auto loan payment in either Dec or Jan. That's as much as we get, being Army. Would be nice if they made the payment for us, instead of tacking it onto the end of the loan...but one fewer bill in Dec does help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drmy91 Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 My husband gets a turkey for Thanksgiving and fancy party for Christmas. He doesnt like turkey and the party is for the executives. So, we are out of luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geomacey Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 At one place I worked, I got 1/2 my paycheck as a bonus and the attorney would give it the day before Thanksgiving. At the next place they didn't even acknowledge Christmas because the partners CLAIMED they were Jewish and Jewish people don't believe in Christmas (OH BROOOOTHER, what an excuse... They were only Jewish when it was convenient!). I don't know what my new place will do.... I don't start until next week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest all2tired Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 My hubby used to get 1 1/2 times his normal pay for a bonus. It helped so much because Oct and Nov always has us struggling for some reason. that bonus would get us back on track. Now they no longer give out the bonuses they have a Christmas party instead that is mandatory on a week day and is for employees only. The party is over an hour away from my house so i told him skip it, if they fire you for not going, you'll get a better job elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
