Thus far, our superintendent has received a hunk of cheese from one of our vendors. Beyond that, my AR girl brought in a tray of awesome homemade candies.
That's it, though. The boss claims he is going to take us all out for Mexican on Wednesday. Corporate used to give cash bonuses. Two years ago I got $75 and a ham. Last year I got $37.50. This year I get a hoodie with the corporate logo on it. Oh, any my pay cut is effective with the check I get the day after Xmas.
This year, I have spent the least amount on Xmas that I have spent in probably 30 years...less than $350 total. Suffice to say that no one is getting much, and that which they are receiving is pretty cheap.
Here's to an improving economy.
