Apparently this years bonus is only going to a lucky ten blokes, every male member is put into a draw and the first ten picked out means Moya will be giving you your christmas treat personally ;liar

You girls will just be getting your usual £100 quid and the 100k losers well it IS the norm these days.

Funny you should mention that April, apparently if the blokes pulled out of the hat is only part time you don't get the full treat and if your only a 20 hour part timer she doesn't come personally she sends her ugly assistant. :chuckle :chuckle

cos if your office is like mine there will be plenty of takers who will work all day (and night)long
this week we have people who are supposed to be on a/l coming in to do work for the tossers in charge :arrrghhh
and yes we have been on cdr foe three weeks and yes the packets and parcels are mounting up,and yes I WORK TO MY TIME .but thanks to these people it will work :arrrghhh
Thought you weren't allowed to work if you're on A/L because of Insurance.. Thats what we've been told on numerous occasions.. mind you the DOMs favourite got paid cash in hand for covering a few days whilst on A/L which beggars believe in itself..

TBH I've done a couple of sickies over the Christmas period last couple of years....

Handy having a couple of days off, and also loved to hear my then DOM whining down the phone that I wouldn't get my "bonus"....lol...pro rata'd, taxed, and NI'd my "bonus" always ended up about £37, so gave me great pleasure telling the DOM that I'd rather have the days off before Christmas than struggle in sick for my £37...

Twats.

Hard for them to coerce people into work when the bonus is so tiny.

Our Part Timers normally get made up to full time hours for 3 weeks in december. Never noticed if the bonus gets made up or not tho, or if the bonus still gets paid prorata. Need to look out for that one this year
