Tacky yes, but I was planning on giving him a tip. Knowing his address just makes it easier- I'm never up early enough to catch him delivering. Just because it was somewhat tacky doesn't change the fact that I am thankful for his good service.
How much he makes isn't a reason for a "bonus". It's just a way to say thank you for a job well done.

I just bought myself a 40 inch led for my garage. I also just spent about 600 on the wife and we have spent about 2 grand on the kids and others. I make a good living and a Christmas bonus isn't that important because the money I make is out of his world compared to most. God have been very good to my family and I.

I couldn't wait to get rid of the 25 inch RCA that was about twenty years old.

The last year we got a bonus was the signing bonus for the 1990 contract ($1000 friend/t, $500 p/t) It was used to prop up the general wage increases of $.50 for 90/91/and 92, slightly increase the HW&P contribution by $.35 and increase the P/T pension plan by maximum $100/mo. This was probably the worst offer most can remember but it was understandable at the time.
Bonuses aren't all they are cracked up to be as they tax them at a higher rate and your net ends up being about $740 friend/t, $340 p/t. It's better to roll that into the wage increase and you can decide your own bonus by the amount of overtime you work.

I'm surprised it took this long before someone made this sophomoric response.

We have no shot at any kind of bonus. All mgmt does is take away any kind of incentives years of service & safety
badda bing...
Actually..we used to get a bonus of 1 weeks pay. Check was issued 2 weeks before Christmas. That was for full time and part-time employees. My local negotiated it away to a one time pay increase and it never was addressed in further contract talks. As for the Turkey..they should restart that program..cost them nothing. Especially when they went to the voucher.

The bonus should not be union or contract driven; it should be of the company's own volition separate of our pay. It shouldn't be either/or. I didn't even realize the turkey was given to us by contract until it was taken away. After that, I didn't care because the turkey meant nothing. I actually think a building Christmas party would do more for morale!

Thanks 407. I did some reflecting the past few weeks. You were the one that was right all along! I still owe you a phone call and an apology.

Bonus? We get that here but they spell it different, especially at Xmas.
A real Christmas party with the wives, husbands, s/os?
