Had a fab sleep. As written in an email this morning, isn't it great how happiness spreads throughout?

Work today, 0940->2000. Hopefully it shall be as much fun as yesterday.
Do you people out there realise, I've now been working in my team at T-Mobile for a year now? This stopgap job that I took on because I was desperate, and poor, and miserable has lasted a year. I never once thought I'd be there more than 6 months. Eek. And no real plans to stop being there anytime soon.

I was reading through the corporate bonus terms and conditions the other day. They are very very sneaky. The bonus measurement period runs from Jan-Dec, but they pay it out in April or May. The T&C state very clearly, that if you leave the company before it's paid, you don't get shit. Hence you could work there for a full year, help meet those targets, leave in March and not get a penny. In effect you're always going to lose out if you leave, either 4 months from the new year, or an entire year. Sneaky.

I'm leaving 10 days before mine is due to be paid, and I won't be seeing a penny :( It's really shitty!

That really is shitty. Makes you wonder why you even bothered working for the previous year when you could have sat back and done half the work for the same reward.
