    My favorite is when work does a holiday party but they make it potluck. Everyone is expected to spend their own money to feed the coworkers.

    I would rather have a pizza party thanks.

    Serious question, is it normal to get a Christmas bonus? I work in tech and none of the last 4 companies I’ve worked for offers a bonus

      I get a gift card for 30 dollars to whatever retailer bought the most product from us this year.

      When we asked at a town hall that they stop spending money in our name, they said talk to your union rep.

      When we brought it up at the hall, they said if they bring it up the response will be to simply take the bonus away.

      I received a Christmas bonus a single time at my last company after I was promoted to a higher salaried position. The next year they changed it so that only senior directors and above were getting bonuses.

    Mine is that I get a week off starting with Christmas but I also don’t get paid for any of it.
    And there was a blind raffle for a few TEMU items that mostly went to upper management which I don’t get why they want that crap enough to make sure they were the winners.
