I had a lot of work this week because I needed to finish everything earlier than usual and leave for the weekend! Today I delivered one of the jobs and the boss was really happy that I had everything ready before the deadline. The company had a good deal on this project so I got a small bonus from them! I was really stressed and tired because I thought I wouldn't make it today. But I did and it feels great to get a small reward for my effort. Also, I needed the extra money to cover my expanses, this way I won't have to spend from my month's savings for my trip.
How do you feel when you get a small bonus for your effort and your hard work gets recognised?

My employer is very demanding but when we work hard it is recognised. I was a bit hesitant in the beginning, when I started working there but I am thankful I decided to stay at the end! It doesn't matter how small it is, I like the fact that I was rewarded and I am looking forwardto work more!

You have a great employer. Not all companies provide bonuses for a job well done. Some don't even acknowledge it. Not even a pat on the back. I always feel good when my hard work is recognized by my boss. Add in a little bonus and it really feels all those hard work I've put in was worth it

It's a difficult time and bonuses are rare right now at most companies. It was only a small bonus but it was something that surprised me and I felt good. I am sure that my boss got an even bigger bonus from the clients for that project so he decided to give that reward!

Hi besweet!
Congratulations for a job well done! You deserve that bonus and hopefully you could have more bonuses to come.
I am on the same situation right now. I am rushing some documents that we will be needing on the 23rd of the month during the training. I hope that we will have a successful training.
Have a nice day!

someone work word just for money,someone work hard for recognition,and someone for happy.but i think the payment is the base.of course,if the payment is ok, and i feel happy,i don't care how hard work it is, and i will try my best to do the things the company offer to me .happy first,payment necessary and base .

I started woking there to learn and get experience so I didn't give a lot of thought about the money. Additionally, I didn't get any other offers so I thought this was my opportunity! I get involved in different things and like what I do but the money is not so good. They are ok but I could have started with a better deal if the employers didn't say about the crisis all the time. Right now, I am in for the knoqledge and the recogition, I want to set a good base for my future. Money is an issue and I will discuss it later, I am new there and I would like to get some experience, that' my priority now..
You are right, there are many different reasons why people work, having everything is the ideal but being happy in the job is basic and a good start!

Hello besweet,
I am happy for you that you got bonus for your work. Every one feels happy when he/she is appreciated at his/her work. Even my boss too have done it for me many times but I never got an extra money for my good work I wish I could also have got some extra money for it.

Some companies still give bonuses, it used to be very often but now with the crisis the budget is lower. Of course it feeld great to be recognised, and even better when you get a money bonus! However it was only a small amount, but very helpful for me in order to cover my expenses!

Good for you! And considering the contribution your work brought to the company, I think you deserve it.
Whenever I receive some bonuses like that for some good work that I have rendered, of course I feel good about myself and the company I am working for. I feel appreciated and it inspires me even more to work harder to the best of my abilities.

I think that when companies treat well to their employees, they get more benefits from them. I guess that if someone is insensitive might not feel inspired as you said, but if you are interested about what you do, this is a great motivation to work even harder!

At least your still having a bonus even small amount, you are actually getting paid for your job and the bonus is just a little compensation for your hard work. You still need to say thanks for that. :)

I am very thankful, not jusr because of the money bonus but also for the recognition. I think it's more important to have the recognition for the work done than the bonus ( for me). Especially because it's the job that I like an d not a random position where I don't care about the results.
