    And now the good news!

    Anyone here getting a Xmas or performance bonus ?
    Permies mostly, but some consultants do get it too.

    Nope, actually earning less this month due to the client closing the site for electrical maintenance work between Xmas and New Year. NOv. was a 5 week month though so it all balances out.

      There's nothing we hate more here at CUK than people boasting about money.

      If you get a bonus, give it all to charity, or elect to pay more tax. We are all Socialists here. Greed is bad. Very bad.

        I got a goodie bag, a krap bottle of wine, some naff chocolates and some cinamon stars. Still will make a 'nice' Christmas pressie for someone
        The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

        But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

          No, but today I've been paid for the first time at my new rate. 15% more than I've ever earned before, so it feels like a bouns.
          Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

            Bagpuss, that doesn't count I am afraid. Most get loads of hampers or stuff.

                I told my client I was taking 2 weeks away from work over the Xmas break.

                They extended the contract by another 2 weeks!!
