[quote=Anonymous]I'm not one of the complainers. I've only posted here once, about a grandmother situation. But I'd like to respond to this.
I've been at my job almost two years. My bosses are from a different culture and I'm not sure they are aware of the year end bonus. I received a gift from them last year that seemed nice for only 6 months on the job. This year, there was no thoughtful present- a gift card for half the amount of last year. 
Thing is, I know my attitude is top notch. I work hard, ten hours a day, doing lots of extra work. The job creep at this position has been crazy, but I've taken it in stride. I'm friendly and accommodating to the extended family that is around six months out of the year. I worked most of the summer with few breaks and they say nice things about me to others. They consult me on issues with the baby and seem to like me. 
So I suppose I was hurt at bonus time. It was a difficult year and they know I'm a struggling single mom. Money to catch up on bills would have been wonderful, but honestly a card with a note would have also been amazing. I've never worked so hard at a nanny job and feel really unappreciated. 
But as I stated, I suppose it's a cultural thing. [/quote]
