Christmas Bonuses?
An anonymous reader asks: "I run a small startup company who was able to turn a buck during this past year. To say 'Thank you' to the employees who put in so much time and effort to get us financially stable I would like to give them a Christmas bonus. However, I've never received one before, so what is appropriate? I have 5 employees and I want to give them all the same bonus, but while I can afford about $1500 a person, is that too much? Would gifts be more appropriate then money? What are some bonuses the Slashdot crowd has received in the past?"
How about giving the whole thing to the employees and letting them INDIVIDUALLY decide what charities to give to ? Why should all five have to give to the same one ? Hell, some might even give away more than half.
Count on story mentioning money to bring out the Commies. A Commie loves nothing more that telling other people what to do with their money, and if it's wrapped up in some kind of collective decision that ignores the possibility of individual action, so much the better. Decisions involving OPM (Other People's Money) attract Commies like paedophiles to a playground, always slinking around the edges and watching their chance.
You probably think you shit roses too.
