  1. How about John Gage posting his salary and perks. Union always trying to stir up s**t.

  2. I'm sorry, but the rank and file deserve some bonuses for the every-increasing workload and productivity expectations, and they continue to deliver. Management rides of THEIR backs. Where are the bonuses for the support staffs?

  3. People do get awards. I get one every year for doing I think a good job. It's not 20 or 30k, but I'm not a Regional Commissioner either. In all the places I have worked at SSA the people who cry the most about not getting an award are normally the people that don't deserve one.

    Glad they did away with those panels and have gone back to basing the award on your rating. Now I'll never get a 5.0 rating, because I don't come to work and be Sally Sunshine like some people, but to me putting in 8 hours work and doing it right is more important that everyone liking you.
