March 9th Friday Five – Profit Sharing Bonus Edition

This is the week that the amount of our annual profit sharing bonus is released and while I’m glad to see our company did well it is quite unfortunate that the bonus will come just in time to pay the taxes we owe on April 15th. That reminds me, I really need to get my taxes finished. So while I get started on those you can enjoy these great posts from the past week:
