I'm still seething mad at the person who threw me under the bus at work
a couple of months ago.  Somehow that incident ended up snowballing
into an omnibus gripe list that got added to my HR file.

...which I've just discovered cancels my merit increase this year.

Does anyone know where I can rent a cybertruck?

And it was taxed at over 40%.   So basically nothing, as i expected.

Nope. Not a rumor just saw the official announcement.  Nothing for us serfs but a one time small bonus check this month. A check that will mostly be eaten by taxes anyway ( and only this month ). No baseline increase, not even to offset cost of living.  However, the uppers, their salary nearly doubled. 

 

And they wonder why morale here is poor.

Taxed or withheld? I could be remembering wrong, but I thought bonuses were withheld at a flat rate (40% sounds higher than i remember), but ultimately when you fill out your 1040 it just goes toward your AGI.

I guess technically withheld until its 'official', with the rest of my salary.  But i never get a refund, i just break even, so same net result.

You don't want a refund. Tax refund means you were giving the government a 0% interest loan.

You're right, of course, but gosh it sure is nice to have some money dumped in your lap in the spring.

I usually use the money to do a fun project or something. This year it's going to go straight into paying bills. :(
