Employee of the year? I'd expect at least a 60-65" 4K for that...
I would much more appreciate a raise.
We get raises and holiday bonuses here. There has never been an "employee of the year" here, but we can buy nice TVs w/ those bonuses...
That sounds fair. Here they give mostly no raises but if they do it's across the board to everyone. So the guy that does nothing gets the same raise as the guy who kills himself working. It's counter intuitive.
That's lame. We all get annual reviews, raises are based on performance. Everybody gets about the same bonus.

Also counter productive. It directly rewards laziness and punishes working hard.

Scott was telling me this about employees who spend time on the phones too (granted there was a bit more to it than that
) -
The trouble with the raises across the board (besides what's already been said) is the lazy person who's super exited to get that raise doesn't care.
Not honestly, if they did they'd work harder to try and get a better raise.

I'm a part of the Big Sushi group if you've ever listened to their podcast. We've been friends for almost two decades. We met at this LAN event called cyber freak meet. There were so many people there that our groups end up being absolutely ridiculous

Yeah mine too actually. This group I haven't seen in so long. My best friends usually go with me but they decided to go to Magfest instead. It was one or the other unfortunately.

Went to a fancy dinner tonight. Daughter didn't want what they had. Then she tried my seafood risotto. Then she stole it and ate my entire dinner.

and no yummy pictures?

It was pretty dark. I'll try to get them posted. I've got lots of pics uploading right now.

My beer...

Crazy question @scottalanmiller, do people stare when you take a picture of the food/beer in these places?
-
Winds off of the sea were so strong that it made us really cold so they gave us blankets.

Nope. No one bats an eye.

Especially since my pictures are often features on their Facebook pages and draw a lot of attention to them. They tend to adorn Booking.com and TripAdvisor, as well.

This seems like an odd question - I take you don't see a lot of food posts in your FB feed then?
I see tons, so this is a pretty normal thing from my POV.
