What did your company get you this Christmas?

Did your employer give you a Christmas bonus this year? A gift voucher? £20 on your pay packet? Money to get a takeaway for your Christmas zoom?

Mine have done f-all the stingy bastards, they’re doing all right out of covid too.

** Apologies to anyone not on jobbook

  • Got cash in my pay packet
  • Got a voucher
  • Got a free takeaway
  • Got nothing
  • Not on jobbook
  • I am my own boss

Fuck all. (Though I did get a bonus and pay rise earlier this year so I can’t complain)

£50 voucher to be used at a very limited number of places. First time ever that this has happened.

£50 morrisons voucher.
I’m chuffed to be honest, in 20 years in the workforce it’s the first christmas bonus I’ve ever received since I was 17 working in Iceland and I think I got a £10 Iceland voucher or something.
I guess it’s a voucher cos of a) tax reasons and b) they get some kind of deal from morrisons. And I’ve already spent it on 50% of the weekly shop, but i don’t mind, very chuffed to receive it.

We usually just get some chocolates or something of our manager. Got a £5 Sainsburys voucher this year.

Thought it was the usual £50 voucher, but when I used the “donate to charity” option (which is very important to me) it was £100. Dunno if it was a matched donation or if it was a £100 voucher this year.

Boss put a Lotto scratchie in all of our christmas cards so there was the potential for a £10,000 christmas gift there

Obviously mine was negative but I had two £3 squares… so close

Free box of mince pies and biscuits and chocolate and shit. Couple of bottles of wine.

We were supposed to get a free tin of shortbreads, but the cunts in the warehouse apparently nicked them all before they got to our department.

Box of chocolates and a bottle of prosecco.
It’s the first time we’ve received it. It was actually direct from the wife of one of our owners who passed away earlier in the year.
