You got something for your 20 year???

25. Mountain bike.

I make enough to where I can afford to buy my own turkey.

They still recognize the milestone years of service.

That's not the point.... It's that a mega corporation would cut out something that barely affects their bottom line....something that is a tradition for the hard work of all employees... They will send upper mgt gift during the holidays, so why wasn't THAT cut out?????

It was an outdated tradition carried over from the Depression years.

Yuppers.

How close do you live to work....

They use to give employees gold coin ....then they went to turkeys... So it was going in for years....they still give mgt " gift"...so why not all employees....

Ride that bike to work...put a basket on it for your lunch and do it.

I would actually prefer that they choose a local nonprofit and donate what they would have spent on us. The nonprofit gets some $$$ and the company gets yet another write off.

The turkey money was a trivial amount.

It's just another way to stab us.

They are too cheap for that... They don't care about employees, let alone a local food bank....fact

Compared to our wages, it was a small amount of money
The goodwill is gone

I've been through it before. Yes, it really is like Nazi Germany as far as how anal they are. Do the smart thing and fail on purpose. Get into a good trade or stay part time and get an extra job. This job will eat your soul.

It is a good job, if you can hack it.
