I was told my bonus and raise today. In my previous job, I was given a sheet of paper with the details of all this. It said the percentage of salary increase, and the breakdown of the bonus (how much was for individual performance and how much was for company performance). Here, I was told orally the dollar amounts. And that's it. It was so odd. I was very thankful, but just felt weird about the whole thing. I really don't deserve to be making this much money. It's a bit ridiculous to get paid for the little amount of work I do. I'm actually embarrassed to write this because I feel like I don't work hard enough like others do, and they don't get paid very much. And here I am complaining about how boring my job is. At least I have a job, and at least I make decent money.
I can only imagine what the others got in the office, the ones who actually did some significant things.
