Xmas bonus

What does everyone get from work for a xmas bonus? We get a £20.00 gift card, a double discount day where we get 20% off of selected items which is useful for xmas presents, a floating days holiday & a xmas meal, plus £5.00 off the xmas party. Not bad but I bet others can beat it!

I work for a small company and we get a company meal for us and our partners paid for and we also get some cash to spend on drinks. Also when I order things from suppliers i usually look for the ones with free gifts and ensure that come Christmas we all have a present to open and a bottle of booze to go with it.:beer:0

I'm getting a pay rise this year

I got 2 bottles of wine, a bottle of whisky and a really nice meal from my boss last year. This year we are going out for dinner with partners too.
I get a week off aswell.“I tell you, we are here on Earth to fart around, and don't let anybody tell you different.”
