I keep seeing people on my dash getting all kinds of bonuses and raises. I am happy for you all (really I am!) but damn, WHERE IS MY BONUS?!

My company hasn’t given bonuses in over a year. 

I’m looking at you [redacted.]

  2. shesagoodegg said: Public sector here, so we do get annual raises, but they are capped at 4.1%. Bonuses do not exist. I’m getting beat down by all the shopping talk on Tumblr this week - trying so hard to save my $$!!
  3. babbleliciousness said: I haven’t had a raise since 2008. I was supposed to get a bonus tomorrow, but I found out on Tuesday that it’s not happening. We can sit on the “jealous of raises/bonuses” couch together and drink away our sorrows.
  4. keepinitweil said: No bonus, no raise - ever…here for 6 years in July. Not even joking…no one has had a raise here in apparently 10 years.
  5. iamtallandawesome said: PREACH, SISTER!!! I am so damn broke and jealous of everyone not living paycheck to paycheck :(
  6. graceinplace said: same here … and haven’t had a raise in almost 2 years … don’t get me started!!
  7. lifelibertysilliness said: ditto…state employee here. no bonuses EVER….and no raises in years. sssaaaaadddd :(
  8. meredithisaleo said: Between posts about raises, bonuses and tax refunds I’m losing my mind. Nothing like that is in the cards for a small little business owner like me. I realize there is a trade off but I miss $$$$
  9. sweetvirginiabreeze said: i’m with you. no bonus or raise in 3 years :( (my company sucks)
