riddle me this Batman...

I promise I will stop being so damned crabby soon. The derby seems to be working it out of me, like when you're hungover and you think working out will drive it out of you, but the alcohol just seeps out of your pores and you smell like a brewery and have to leave the gym for fear the smell is worse than you think?

*ahem*

So the complainy part.....and the question.......say it's February 14th. You recently lost your job, yet still STILL had not received your Christmas "bonus" (fifty bucks worth of Amazon gift certificates) so you email your now ex-boss and inquire when you'll be receiving said "bonus".

Say you receive the below email.....

"Unfortunately, you are no longer eligible for this bonus. You have to be an employee at the time of payout."

Would you...

A) fly off the handle and fire back a nasty reply before thinking it through

B) lie down and take it....after all, they *did* eliminate your position

C) quietly fume about it and ask the internets what they think

D) none of the above

Talk amongst yourselves :)

Honestly? I'm a "lie down and take it" kinda' girl (that sounds nasty LOL) but that doesn't mean I recommend that route...

You oughta' ask Rach what SHE would do! LMAO

I freqently open mouth before brain kicks in, so I'm not going to vote for that one. I would ask when payout is exactly, since it was portrayed as a "Christmas" bonus, and Chirstmas has done come and gone for over a month now. I also suggest loudly ranting and raving at home. Doesn't solve anything, but gets rid of pent-up energy.

I would pick #1, except be assertive instead of nasty. If they hadn't been so damn slow you would have received it.

Ah man, that bites. I would ask to read the fine print, personally.

And play a lot of, um, derby. (what do you say?)
