12-27% of salary No idea yet as I haven’t gotten it. Honestly, a $50 gift card or something small for all workers really makes a difference. It was odd but I worked at a place in Latham that handed out bonuses to various people. It was a few hundred dollars but only some got it and the owner or her lackey did it. It was weird because you felt like shit when you saw another get the envelope but you didn’t get shit. ---
