meltdown 0 #15 December 12, 2003 I LOVE my boss. I got a $400 bonus (a lot less with taxes taken out). That definitely helps soften the blow of the $5000 I spent on gear last week. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skydivingchad 0 #22 December 12, 2003 I get a bonus check every year at x-mas, after 4 years with the company it should be about $50. The boss also sends out a small gift to everyone for every holiday through out the year. Personally I would rather have the cash. The gifts are so cheesy the only thing I can use them for is target practice when I goto the gun range. Sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug.
