Originally Posted By FerretAfros I guess it seems cold, but they have been laid off and aren't working for the company any more. Realistically, the best they should hope for is screen credit acknowledging their work. No, it doesn't really seem fair, but I can't think of a single situation where it makes sense to send out big bonuses to people who no longer work for your company Heck, given how rough things were just a few years ago, they should be thrilled that anybody's getting a bonus in the first place. That's the whole "bonus" thing about it: it's not required or expected for simply doing your work

Originally Posted By FerretAfros Aw man! If only I could have gotten a bonus from somebody I didn't work for. Shucks! Seems fitting that this is coincidentally my 20,000th post! : )
