How to thank my boss after I got my Xmas bonus/gift?

Question

I didnt go to my Xmas party at work because I told my manager I am going to San Diego for two days. I went back to work for my schedule my manager gave me a card from my boss and his wife with a 40 dollar check. I was pretty surprised since I know they dont celebrate Xmas because I asked before and I didnt get them anything and I am not sure if she personally handed them out since I wasnt there for the party. How can I give my thanks after Xmas should I write a card for New Year or thank my boss in person? Is it okay if I cash it out now and give my thanks later since I need to go to the bank right now lol. Btw I work at Subway.

Answer 1

I would write a thank you note and give it to him in person. It was very thoughtful of him and most fast food employees get nothing at all. I also don't think it matters when you cash the check, but a heartfelt thank you should be given asap. before New Years.

Answer 2

Well just because they don't celbrate Christmas, doesn't mean that they can't give out people that do celbrate Christmas, gifts. Like a # of people that have already metnioned, you can give them a thank you card. Or it might even be better to thank them in person. And maybe the fact is, that they didn't want to leave you out. But you had better put the check in a safe place, until you do go and cash it. And this might also be because they think you are a good worker. For me, I dohn't know I would even want to work at Subway, I would think that would be a boring job, well one because they don't have a kitchen, and maybe they make the food in front of the custmors, when they place an order. But that is good that you told your manger that you would be out of town for the holidays, and you had to be in San Deigo, and that you wouldn't be able to make the Christmas party.

Answer 3

I would thank your boss by doing a great job at work.
