A bank, owned by the public, reports a loss of £1.13bn last year but they're going to pay out £950 million in bonuses?

:evil:

I wish that was how my company worked. We've stayed in profit throughout the financial crisis but have had a pay and pensions cut.

Re: Barstewards

Thanks to them I spent 11 months on half pay instead of full pay (oil companies stopped drilling etc and worked dropped off). Then I finally got laid off for just over 5 months. Now my new job pays about £3k a year less.
