My immediate boss usually gives me a gift certificate to LL Bean. I usually get her something...this year it is earrings.

The big boss gives us a gift certifcate to Borders.

We got 120% of our check this year. We give money for our 'main' boss and then we get together for our supervisor.

I work for an huge corporation so the two are separate for me. My boss is in Philadelphia so no, probably no gift from her but I do give my staff gifts. As far as a bonus, we better!!! My small company (120 people) was bought out at the beginning of this year. I got $1000 the past 2 years but I don't even know if this new company gives out bonuses, I haven't heard a word

Last year I got $1000 bonus but my last day here is Friday so I'm not getting anything from here this year. I don't think my new job gives bonuses.

I got a gift. I have three bosses and each one was very generous last year with either a gift or a gift card.

The firm I used to work at didn't do anything, but my individual bosses got me gifts.


This will be my first X-mas here, so I have no idea what's in store. They gave all the staff transit checks for Thanksgiving.... that was a nice touch.

my company really takes care of me. holiday party in the city 6-10 pm, two days later a lunch party at downtown italian resturant. then another party midtown, all with cars home!!
I get a bonus at the end of the year, I got my boss a cute 3 tiered snowman with gourmet goodies

this is my first holiday here, and I am in shock, my last company was a bunch of dead beats.

The last few years we got 4 weeks' bonus, but in July the co. moved to FL, hired new (dorky) people and the boss is in Egypt --- but he better take care of me this year!!!

Ugh. This is sort of a sore subject for me right now. I'll be getting a small gift as well as a bonus, but the bonus will probably be in the $200 range...peanuts compared to my $5,000 bonus from last year at my old job in the city!!! Man, I miss that job!

My boss does not give us bonuses! we got a christmas tree plant& we also get a christmas party in the over the bridge building in the union building at stonybrook college. what stinks is we are NOT allowed to bring our spouses.

We don't get bonus, our company has a big holiday party for us and last year they gave a jacket with the company logo on it, but i doubt we are getting anything this year!

I can't get a bonus because it would be a bribe,soI get a nice pat on my butt, and they tell me keep up the good work.
