20 People Share Their Disappointing Holiday Bonuses
It’s that time of the year again, when we receive our Christmas bonus and boy do we look forward to that extra much-needed influx of cash. Sometimes, we even spend it way ahead of receiving it because that’s just how life is, you tend to roll your income based on predictions.
Then, imagine the shock and disappointment of not receiving according to your expectations, especially during an economic crisis such as what we are experiencing right now. After already cutting corners and penny pinching as much as possible, to putting in extra effort and time at the workplace to ensure it doesn’t just crumble due to the pressures of Covid-19 lockdowns etcetera to be dealt a low blow by your place of work similar to the ones below is sure to grate. Let us know in the comments, if you have had a similar experience.
