everyone equal or did some get more than others?
i just gave 200 cash to each employee in a card thanking them
for their hard work and dedication to the growth of the company
they loved it and thanked me back..i wish i could have done more
but something is better than nothing..

nothing for the part timers, but yes I give a Christmas bonus to two Little Genies .
i also "share the wealth" on occasion through out the year.
from little things like buying lunch often to $100 cash bonus for a jobs we made a bundle of profit on

I'm a FIRM believer in taking good care of the peeps that take good care of me.
My Little Genies are my most valuable asset...literally worth their weight in gold

All employees got a bonus. Ranged from $100 - $250 per.
Since we already do merit based bonuses monthly, I don't go overboard for the holiday.

I always to stuff for Christmas. The year dictates how much.

Last year was a really good year and they all got the biggest bonuses they ever have, plus a full restaurant dinner for all staff and their spouses.

This year was a bit leaner, so we did things differently to save a few quid. They understand that, and appreciate that I still do something. A smaller bonus and a simpler dinner.

This year we set up the BBQ at work, cleaned up all the vans/equipment/warehouse during the morning and then had a BBQ lunch, all staff, spouses and kids were invited and it worked well.

Appreciation is an attitude and not just a dollar value.
John

Yes, one broken down black box truck, one silver work van, and a personal car that you sometimes drive in to give estimates when you are baby sitting.

Shop, the attached 2 car garage, bays.. Hmmm you might be drunk and you meant a shop with a few gays...
