After what seems like the longest time since my last payday in Dec tomorrow is payday and ....annual bonus time.

Better yet the sales are still on ;-)

    I am also paid Friday, but annual bonus not until April. Mind you, after two major clients went bust in 2011 I'll probably be writing my company a cheque rather than getting one!

  • Get ours (peformance related) in April too (for the very few of us left who are still on those contracts)... but I reckon I deserve it, as we managed >30% growth in EBITDA this FY as well as in the previous year.
