Bonus ?? What for ? Companies who run at a loss don't generally hand out bonuses ?

The UK's largest cable company NTL saw its first-quarter losses narrow, as it added 32,800 new subscribers.
During the January-to-March period, its losses from continuing operations narrowed to £62.6m ($118m), down from a £75.5m deficit a year previously.

Well it will not be from me.

Charging for the customer service line was the final straw. I have ordered a BT line to be reactivated and then i will get it LLU'd to BE when they go live.

Year :Yikes: If we're really really good and we kiss ass and work hard and we haven't recently been given a bonus, we get £450 bonus. That's monthly. Sheeeesh. I thought my job was bad. Puts it all in perspective :D

what's wrong with a monthly bonus of £450?

It's the amount of debasement and unprofessionalism necessary to get it :D

I was simply making the point that, no matter how bad your job is, there's a worse one, somewhere. I could have been a hole expert :p:

Dropped off some money for the lottery I'm still in with ntl, I mentioned how much bonus I got with my new company and my ntl mate said they didn't get a penny this year.

I expect senior management will be getting the same:rolleyes:

For the bonus this year there was one target only and that was to 95% Cash positive or something.

We didn't make the target so no bonus.

But there was plenty of money to merge with TW and potentially buy Virgin Mobile :rolleyes:
