Our secretary got $1.50 more per week. Costco membership, anyone?

Why would we get a bonus? It’s the executives that did the difficult work of lobbying our lawmakers to lower their taxes.

There was just a post about exactly this. Look in Top topics.

Nope. Other than the big jump from the new policy. It was a lot

@starcom 1, sorry I can’t seem to find it. Wish posts were more searchable

I’ve been told to expect one in my next check (tomorrow) - will report back.

@DigitasLBi1 yeah everyone should have a bump from that but I was wondering if any agency has done what a bunch of other corporations have done which is give out a one time bonus or increase overall wages. I’m guessing no. Nonetheless I’m holding out hope that there’s an agency out there that isn’t a greedy bastard. I mean it’s sad when Wal-Mart and JPMorgan are more generous than our companies

Anyone a manager? I’m recently diagnosed (26F) and I can’t help but beat myself up everytime I fall short of my to do list. Makes me feel like a huge disservice to my team. I’ve been trying vitamin D and working out, but it makes my “highs” and “low” SO extreme. The simplest things are so complex in my mind.

If anyone feels similar, how do you manage these feelings? I’m personally considering switching to an individual contributor role, but can’t help but feel like a disappointment if I do.
