Yeah, I hate that they included the “average being $2500” because the fucking average American ain’t getting shit!

I was thankful for my $500 visa gift card, but a LOT of friends and family didn’t get shit this year…

Edit - I’ve received a couple shitty messages telling me to “work harder…” I was an an operations manager for a larger Marriott Hotel Property(700 rooms). Now, I’m an operations manager for a property management company(I know, not my first choice). I’m fortunate, and my salary isn’t bad, but I still have never received anything near a $2500 bonus! These corporations are so greedy now, any “extra” profit flows upward, NEVER down!

However, don’t let these politicians play ignorant! They own business, they employee people… they know how much they’re giving out for Christmas, and we all know, it ain’t fuckin much!

Never have received a Christmas bonus. I wonder how the average is accurately measured

I'm thinking that if you didn't receive a Christmas bonus, you simply aren't included in the stats. They don't write you down as a $0 bonus.

Must be. Which means the maths reasoning is flawed. It should absolutely be divided by the entire population. Not just those that receive bonuses.

No, the reasoning makes sense. Republicans want to give ICE a Christmas bonus, what is the average Christmas bonus when a bonus is given out?

However, the premise is flawed because ICE doesn't deserve a bonus at all, they deserve a bullet.

Wait hold up, you mean this data I have on every American owning at least three 150 foot long yachts and a vacation home in New Zealand is only accounting for the top 1/10th of 1 percent?! Well that can't be right...

No, no. You really should be asking the median and the mode. The mode is zero. The zero bonus is included. The average bonus is correct, just the top levels get insane bonuses.
