Xmas Bonus
Hello all,

Just curious as to what kind of xmas bonus/gesture/gift, if any, your company has given you this year.

Merry Xmas!

Absolutely none! Just the usual "thanks for all your hard work, we've made record operating profits, and the shareholders are all contented"

Nope just the £10 at M&S, no sign of the frozen (usually very defrosted by the time we get to pick them up) turkeys this year at EXT.

Why should we expect anything special on 25th Dec?
We accept the role and as such accept that we work on festive days

Over here (SX) the 13th salary is mandatory by state law for everybody that works. Now its up to the companies to give you something extra which usually don´t.

Management have managed to make as many cutbacks as humanly possible and offered a paltry below RPI wage rise (already many months late). Company has made record profits this year compared to last 5 years. So, no bonus for line pilots as all the savings are diverted to the management bonus scheme - Bah Humbug!

Name and shame your companies...worth a laugh.

Although I dont actually expect anything from the company I work for, so if they do give us something, great!
