What happened to going to work doing your job and getting paid your salary nothing else, maybe some overtime but that’s it? Does anybody do their job to the best of their ability without the need of a bonus? Well most of us don’t get bonuses the culture of bonuses is only rife amongst the well-off and well-paid whilst in this current financial climate the rest of us lesser mortals are expected to work at best for frozen or lower wages – look we should be thankful we’ve still got jobs is what we’re told, which appears all too true as we’ve watched numerous family, friends and colleagues thrown out on the dole queue – all the while they’ve been busy paying themselves bonuses -. Is it me but shouldn’t a bonus be something unexpected? I guess the only thing unexpected about bonuses these days is how much they’ll get.

Isn’t it time we got angry?
