The first bonus I ever received was at one of the worst jobs I ever had.
Summer going into grade 12, I worked as an apprentice welder. Hated the job, didn't know what I was thinking when I thought I wanted to be a welder... anyway, I stayed on part-time after the summer during grade 12, and when Christmas rolled around, I got a completely unexpected $500 bonus. I was thrilled. Five big ones 13 years ago for a 17 year old was a big deal.
