    Just read this on the BBC News website.

    What, if anything, did anyone receive as a Christmas bonus from their boss?

    Personally myself and my colleagues got a text informing us of no bonus and not even a few beers.

    The term "set of miserable ****s" never entered my mind at any time.

    My boss gave me an LP of Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me by The Cure as my 'bonus'.

    I'll happily take that, belting album.

    No Christmas bonus, no Christmas meal, just an invitation to join the 'Leadership Team' for mince pies. As a special treat we did get to leave work at 12:30 on the last day though.

    Whoopee.

    Sounds like a punishment rather than a bonus.

    In good condition, you'd probably be able to get at least £25 for it.

    Sack all.

    But that’s schools for you.

    I know, before somebody says it, let me do it for you: “you get enough time off.”
