I did one time get a bonus and I had to go back to my employee agreement to make sure it was correct. It wasn’t mentioned in my interview and it was an easy one to attain.

Have you ever hit a bonus you didn’t even know existed until payroll surprised you?

I can’t say I’ve ever had that happen, pleasant surprise! I’d be double and triple-checking to make sure the pay wasn’t messed up. They will come back for overpaid money at some point!

I know I did double check everything myself and then owner came back and said I missed something and it was a pleasant bonus surprise.

That must have been a great surprise! I am usually very aware of the bonuses offered, and actively chase them. No point in leaving money on the table.

I agree there, I think in my situation it was just a performance thank you bonus from the owner.

I feel like it’s reasonable to not kill myself further to fit in more/turn things around faster at this point, but am I being unreasonable? I expect my workload to remain at this level through the end of the year at least.
