Ztirffritz, how can they afford that $50? Did they have to fire an executive? Relax, you did well on the disdain...
JoeBob, missing by a couple hundreths of a percent sucks, sorry to hear. But by not being sporting, your company has taken what could have been an extreme moral booster (give you the bonus) and turned it into a negative experience. Their loss.
Sorry to hear about cheap bosses but mine aren't really generous in their own way either. The cash and TV's are just a smoke screen. My team of 4 people produced over $2mm worth of tape strips and I figured that the prizes worked out to about .08 cents per to get tripple the usual output. There were 8 other teams that produced at double time also that got squat.
All in all, good for me because of TV and good for company because of all the extra product, not as much fun for the losers (I mean loser in the best possible way ;-) ) because they got nothing for their efforts while the company still benefits from the work they produced. Such is life! I'm glad to have gotten what prizes I did ....because I had to be at work anyway.
