well crap...i think this new bonus system we're implementing at work is gonna suck major ass...it appears that the irs will withhold 27% of the amount of the bonus...major suckage...i mean, is it really all that much of a bonus if we know we're getting 150 bucks a quarter, minimum? why not just give each of us a quarter raise and then make year-end bonuses out of the money that's left over?

maybe neal's conspiracy theory is right - they're doing it this way so that they can hang onto the cash longer throughout the year....
