on average we commoners were pulling in about $1,600 per month after taxes.

My Christmas bonus was $58

His Christmas Bonus was about $300,000

it was really infuriating and disheartening to receive such propaganda in the company in box.

Reminds me of Chevy Chase in Christmas Vacation when he opens his bonus check to find a certificate to the Jelly of the Month Club!
