hello fellow chrome domes.... hope everyone is doing fine. just wondering....what's your employer giving u 4 Christmas? i'll start: as most of u know..... i work as a RN at a hospital in the beautiful gulf coast. anyways.... we received R Christmas "gift" yesterday. it was a $15 dollar gift certificate for a turkey.

my co-workers and i were sooooo humiliated by the gift. i know that its the thought that counts but come on. no wonder there is a nursing shortage. we work so hard and are very understaffed and unappreciated and they give us a 15 dollar gift card to purchase a turkey!!!!!!! atleast give me a target/walmart giftcard so that i have a choice. i'm tired of turkey!!!
okay...okay...sorry 4 my rant but u can't blame me.

so.... how 'bout u? what did u get from your employer 4 CHRISTMAS? i hope u got a better deal than me. what's your story?

We usually get a small bonus depending on tenure, with a cap of course. We also sometimes get "tangelos" a tasty mix of oranges and tangerines. Not bad, but it could be better.

We're getting the week off between Christmas and New Year's.
Paid time off with the family is the best gift my employer can give me.

well my boss is taking us all out for a nice steak dinner at an upscale restaurant...plus I get a cah bonus....which is equal to about a weeks pay plus....we get off work from December 21 thru december 27. Cant beat that......unlike a place I use to work at....a grocery store. I was their department manager and we were always use to getting about $150 cash bonus...well the last year I worked there we got a notice that we were no longer having the company party...in which they furnished all the food booze and dj nor were we getting our cash bonuses. They instead gave us a time....say..on sunday between 1pm and 5 pm to come in ..do our grocery shopping and save 20% off our total......

?? 20 %? That freakin sucked... i dont think anyone took advantage of it....wasnt worth our time. My mother in law still works there as the deli manager and last year they got a lawn chair...that reads Valu Foods on the back....whoooopieeeeeeeeeee

We get the week off between Christmas and New Years (sometimes more than a week). I'll take time off over almost anything else.

We're having a Christmas party at a local country club and usually get $100 in a card. Can't complain, it's more than I've gotten with other employers.

Getting a bonus, I think. Last year it was an extra paycheck.

25$ gift card and half off anything in the store for 1 day

, except smokes, gas, or lottery. The only things I would actually buy. I miss the contruction company I worked with: $400 cash, a Mag lite, and a steak dinner prepared by the owner with all the beer you could drink.
