Jake Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 No shit? Do you have your own ladder to? Anyone can be a company director. The title doesn't mean dick. How much profit did your company make last year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much profit did your company make last year? Enough to be VAT registered...I have ran a LTD company since 1994...dosn't mean I am minted though...just means that I am sometimes allowed to give myself a pay rise or a bonus with the permission of my co-director..and no I dont clean windows, though cleaning windows is a very worthwhile job and pays very well (but I hate heights so wouldn't be able to do that) A lot of us are Company Directors these days dosn't mean I have an office on the top floor of a tall building with my own personal lift.....but it is actually a company rather than a personal trade. I get the vibe this is annoying you for some odd reason:clap: Happy Christmas Jake;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prof. Monkey Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 Hmmm my bonus was a bollocking from the head, for not cleaning out my pigeon hole? WTF! Really pissed me off as well, if I have anytime off the classes I teach run riot, but not when I am there. Shows that I must be doing something right......... My "proper" bonus is that I do not have to teach the little ones for 2 weeks.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbourner Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 Haven't heard anything this year, last year it was £250 and a bottle of wine, this year so far we've all been given a hamper with bottle of red, white and champagne, and box of chocs and slab of fruit cake - so I'm guessing that's replaced the £250!!

Guest The Flash Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 £650 and an MP3 player ..... don't ask on the MP3 - think they must have landed here from the oil blast! Have also recently won best part of £900 in a week on some selected footy results Of course these are the only bets I have ever placed so I have a massive Net Profit China - pleased to see the list of Mods is growing. Good luck with the wedding mate - assume the wedding car is going to be Storm Blue!!! Flash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeordieSteve Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 My mother has been working for the same company for the past 30 year (delivery company, owners have LOTS of other businesses... family even own a bloody Island!). The last two years their xmas party was a £4 McDonnalds voucher! This year they didn't even get that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbourner Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 That's how to make money though TBH, if you gave it all away to your employees you'd never make billions. You have to choose to be a manager that everyone loves, or a rich manager that everyone hates (but respects?). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyb10supra Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 I got my December pay and the bonus. Last year I bought the exhaust and HID where this year I can't spend a penny of it all going toward my wedding in April. Next bonus in June will be bigger and I promise myself that I would not let anything stand in my way of modding anyone else christmas come early? China Christmas bonus.....whats that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Peace Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 Very good. Yep isn't Jake so clever....maybe if he applied his brain to 'REAL LIFE' rather than spending his whole life on here...then I'd be inclined to take him more seriously:p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 Anyone can be a company director. The title doesn't mean dick. How much profit did your company make last year? LOL - I have the option of calling myself a Director, but it's a bit silly in a company our size....and yes I do know how much profit we made. Our share allocations are dependent on these targets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faye Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 Bonus? I should have got my payrise in June 05 with a performance bonus, still no sign of it. We were told that we'd get the bonus plus back pay in February 06 (only 8 months late) but now our payroll building has burnt down and we have no idea when we'll get our extra money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edd_t Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 Bonus! Bonus and pay rise have been pushed back to mid January "if we are lucky to get them at all" cos some ar53h0le in the company took over £2million from our clients (that we now need to pay back). hes now being done for fraud, but hes hiding in Cyprus! the complete C U Nxt Tuesday!

Smudger Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 Got mine the other day - quite nice just before xmas, £3100 before tax. But that was a lot of hard work during the season. The only person who gets a decent bonus is THE BLOODY TAX MAN :complain: :complain: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONKEYmark Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 What does Company Director mean? My mate is the 'company director' of his own window cleaning company. He's got his own ladder, bucket and everything!lol company directors means he and his partner can both direct the window cleaner to which hose to go to first. makes you wonder why staff morale can be down.its like a slap in face.give the little people some vouchers for all there hard work.when the office staff go out on christmas do`s and morale boosting nights out. the office staff got treated to a meal and drinks and had hotel rooms payed for.its the office staff who fook up most jobs with paperwork errors.
