You know what's a great invention? Christmas bonuses. On the way to work today, Luis called to say he had a check for me, but since he had already left for the day, I'd have to wait until Monday to get it from him. I had totally forgotten about the christmas bonus as a concept, so this comes entirely as a surprise, and a particularly well-timed one at that, because money is somewhat tight these days. But now, I have no idea how much the bonus is. I don't know in what range these usually fall, so for all I know I could be getting $100, or $5000. Oh, the suspense. :) He did say that Puerto Rico has a legal minimum requirement for the christmas bonus, and that we were not just meeting it but exceeding it. Which is good I guess. It doesn't make a big difference one way or the other — anything is more than I was expecting. I just hate not knowing things :)
