When I was helping design and build instruments down in FL for a company, the second year I was there the owner game me a $10,000 bonus b/c the designs turned out so well. The next year he fired me. I became a liability being younger and having the knowledge of the shady shit he was doing in China to get our instruments cheap as fuck.
I was young and stupid about it, my name was no where near the designs and I did nothing to cover my ass.
Oh well the 10g's was nice while it lasted.

Hi thecornking,
My boss invited us all to test the dessert of the month club from here:

I must confess: I'm not the kind of guy who likes desserts, but this one was great!

After not getting my bonus, I wrote my boss a real nice letter explaining that I need to earn more money and be able to pick up more night shifts. Yesterday we talked, and today I'm getting my bonus. Woot!
