A $10 certificate off a ham or turkey. And 1 case of flu that I can't get rid of. (Thanks for my vaccine, too. Otherwise I can't fathom how bad I'd feel.)

They are taking it away to save 1.2mil. Oh and no cost of living raise either.... Working at a county hospital sucks sometimes!

A $10 gift card to Target- which on closer inspection was deducted from our paycheck. Well heck, if that's how they're going to do it, lets be realistic then, I hardly ever spend less that $40.00 of my own hard earned money at Target Boutique!

Uhh what!? I wouldn't be happy.

A $10 gift card to target, a free meal tomorrow, and a Cheryl's cookie. The surgeons on my floor also bought all of the staff truffles.
