Closest I ever got to having one is having Christmas as a paid day off
Edit: And I've been told that Christmas Eve is a working day this year, and Christmas is now only paid as a reward for those who work 30 hours in a week, and this comes on the heels of "Btw, we're cutting your hours and if you work over this amount, you are fired.", meaning it's an unobtainable prize.
… a white middle class family …
What was then middle class
Honestly, he had more of a corporate management position. I wouldn't say they were ultra wealthy by any means, but I would put them on the upper end of middle class for sure
Have literally never gotten a holiday bonus
Bonuses are typically tied in as a salary expectation. If you have a job good enough that you expect a bonus then its dictated in the terms of your employment. Its usually some amount like 10-15% of your salary based on performance review along with a multiplier for the company's overall performance. Companies use this as incentive while giving dirt annual raises. Not getting a bonus when its expected as part of your salary is definitely getting the shaft. Clark has every reason to be pissed.
This is why I never count the bonus as salary. More and more companies are shafting their employees like that.
My GF's bonus is tied to something she has no control over, and the company uses the bonus to justify a lower salary. Fuck that noise.
Exactly. I was hired into one job with a decent salary plus a 10% bonus, paid quarterly. Pretty exciting, right? What I wasn't told until after I started was that bonuses were on a freeze for the foreseeable future, at least for a year. Next job!
