My work bonus was bout 9.5% this year of which i get 52% after taxes. My raise was a wimpy 3.5%, but i'm not complaining, I haven't been laid off yet.

With my home business I redid some loans and gave myself a XXXX.$ a month back. The big bonus came when I got to push off the loans off for 45 days. Woot! I'm only using about thousand or two though. The rest is going to pay the loans off faster....

[Sarcastic] Imagine that paying off loans faster..... [/Sarcastic]

What's a Christmas Bonus? Never saw that in the Automotive business working as a technician. At the most I got told I had to work Christmas eve, lol
Actually that's not all the way true. One dealer I worked for rented a Costco for the night, had a little dinner for employees and family and then gave us a $200 gift card to Costco and we got to shop there without the public inside after the dinner. It was great.

You must be working for the wrong people Rue. I will be getting a 1000 christmas bonus and our company christmas party is this saturday. Open bar and free dinner.

I was thinking about another one, but cannot decide what I want. Ah well, definitely I need to put some more thought into.

I'm the only employee for my boss' plumbing co. I do all of the work and last year just before Christmas he says "and don't think you're gonna be getting a Christmas bonus this year, things are a little tight." A week later he dropped off his motorcycle to get a $1500 paint job and went to Hawaii for a month. Still pisses me off a year later, a-hole.

"I'm" is a contraction for "I am" meaning you still work there? If you're an employee working hard enough to get him a nice paint job and big bucks vacation you could probably score an employer who doesn't treat his guy(s) like crap. Just an observation, don't mean to get off the gun track or out of line.

We get our bonus in April.

Profits this year are on track to break last year's record and next year's forecast looks better than this year.

I find out tomorrow. New job, but according to my co-workers, my employer has been generous in year's past, so who knows.
