    Agreed. I haven't even thought about receiving a Christmas bonus in years ... basically not since I was paid something other than dirt cheap by a dirt cheap company.

    I work for the government so I get good hours and a good wage. No bonus is expected at all so it doesn't bother me at all. Other professions might expect it.

    Same here. Government employees don't get bonuses.

    I'm glad that I don't have to rely on someone else for those types of things anymore. I remember that disappointment and I feel for you guys that aren't valued by your employers.

    It depends on how well you understand what the tax implications are and how you work within the government's structure. Trust me, I'm not trying to pay taxes on the same dollar twice. That won't happen.
