Awards and Bonuses and Cash, Oh My!

OK, I'll stop by yapping about working so much, about how I'm not paid what I'm worth, how I'm overworked, yadda yadda yadda. Because last week I received a "Superior Performance Award" at work. They give only a couple of these out each year, and it was accompanied by a mighty big check...a check the size that is not commonly seen at nonprofits, and definitely not during a down economy.

Then I received the regular employee bonus, on top of another award about doing good for the environment.

So I'll shut up now...

But it's nice to see my organization taking a cue from the corporate world in handing out performance-based bonuses. Not a common thing, is it?
