That end of the year extra we all look forward to, the Christmas Bonus.

“Christmas Bonus”

The Christmas Bonus

At year end is

All the focus

 

Reviews seem bogus

When all you

Get is fungus

What’s the

Entire ruckus?

 

It’s not

About the size

But we all

Deserve a bonus

 

Because showing up for

Work every day on time

And work performance

Has been our main focus

 

So give us our

f*****g bonus!

Author's Note

Marie Harrison
End of the year bonus from my clients was what I used to look forward. Even when I worked in corporate I looked forward to bonus time. No matter what the size of the bonus, getting a bonus was so exciting. I think everyone deserves some sort of bonus at the end of the year!

"So give us our

This piece should've ended in 'Amen' lol.

Amusing, direct and true for many paid workers in modern society! Whatever your point of view, hard work, initiative and loyalty to an employer should always be valued. Thankyou, for sharing this with other readers!

It all depends... Seems to me that too many people have been paid bonuses in the past which bore no relation to performance - and at the end of a day, if a company is not doing so well, how can it pay bonuses? We have developed a culture of expectation that people have a right to things regardless of whether it is affordable... So I would forget end-of-year bonuses altogether and let people have a share in the profits - if there are any - at the end of the financial year...

XDD that last line really made me laugh. Love this, it's brilliant, love the rhyming in this too, very well thought out - great job!~

Never had a bonus all my working life, never asked for one, never expected one, I was never dissapointed. Bah Humbug

yes, I do agree, everyone deserve some bonus at the end of the year, after working so hard for whatever we are doing! You've written a great poem here, and it flows well. I love the photo you got! That doll is so cute!
