Yeah, but I wasn't impressed. A holiday party at the supervisor's house where we each had to bring something to eat and share (so that cost me money). And, a card with NO money and "thank you for all your hard work..." Worst of all I got stuck working Xmas Eve and Xmas day being the new employee.
oh shuks!
happy belated hanukkah ;-)
merry christmas and happy jolly new year !!

We use to have Christmas parties at nice restaurants and a 50$ bonus. But since they hired a new plant manager we now have an hour break, dry catered dinner in the dirty cafeteria at work and a 25$ gift certificate to some cheap restaurant. Then we all have to go back to work. Mind you we work 12 hr shifts and only get a 20min lunch so they figured an hour would be nice for us, God bless their cheap hearts.
P.S....Merry Christmas to everyone!!!!!!!!!!

Well my husband got a turkey, a laundry basket filled with christmas food goodies, a $50 note and a cheque with 3% bonus...not bad really for a welding shop! Oh and a meal at the chinese restuarant.

No, but I work for a smaller company. I heard on the news that many small companies won't be giving out bonuses or anything so I guess I don't feel alone...
At least I still have a job! (Been laid off before, gotta be thankful for what I have).

Yeah, a nice lunch at a pub and $100. I felt bad because the last few weeks, i was feeling negative about my job. Funny how a little cash changes things, though.

Here in the UK austerity and meaness is the current fashion.
In line with that, my employer has set my colleagues and I tough new targets to achieve and has promised contimous employment to any of us that succeed.
Merry Christmas indeed!!

We got a turkey from the company and my manager gave us gift cards. Mine was $20 for Bath & Bodyworks.
