£1300 bonus

[fishtank]

That's it 50/50 share saving. Thank you

Yes I remember that.
We got less than a quid I kid you not.
The entire area was for walking.

Is this post about you have never had it so good or about reminiscing on the good old days the only bonus on the table is £300 for being a scab not called anyone that though!

We got £800 in may 2008 and £400 in may 2009 from the colleagueshare dividends.
Anything else might be a local thing like the 50/50 savings thing etc.

That's it 50/50 share saving. Thank you

nothing to do with not going sick for a year then ??

I remember that one of the relief drivers to our DO won a car.

He was a twat.

I am sure it had something to do with it but still not 100% sure. I just remember getting it. Just remember it as the biggest bonus I have had on the post. I don't keep records and don't research things !

Definitely not,you or anyone else is free to do what they believe in. I was just trying to find out what the bonus was for as I thought it was for not going sick for a year. It looks like I was wrong but am not 100% clear. Looking at examples fishtank said he got a £1 I got £1300 so maybe it was an office thing as suggested. Possibly 50/50 savings as suggested looks quite possible.

This is probably going to sound amazingly sad but I have got all my RM pay slips dating back to the 80's when I first started the job. Are you referring to the £1,074.00 we got as a 'share in success' payment on 20th May 2005, I think it probably worked out as about £800 or so after tax.

I remember "share in success".
It cost nearly 35,000 jobs from 2002-2005.
Happy days.

Yes me too, yet another deal that produced a nil return. Nobody on the shop floor understood the calculation but it was something like the office reached a certain target and anything beyond that was a 50/50 share between the staff and RM; as you say we lost staff and earned precisely nothing.

Spot on that's the figure and I remember we got a couple of hundred over making it just over £1300. Nice surprise when we got that one

I'm glad we've cleared that one up.
But hang on.....was it pro rata?

But a lot of us may have been part time back then and therefore we would not have had such a large sum in our wage packet.
P/T were shafted again.

Not all of us are driven almost entirely by money.
I do remember it was quite a nice summer that year though.
