As the year end approaches, the Marketplace is pleased to announce its annual bonus distribution. Eligible staff will receive a bonus of between two and nine treats, based on performance, seniority and how recently the Chairman noticed them.
This year’s top performer, trader Biff, will receive a full tin of mackerel and a star on his desk. The bottom performer, analyst Cecil, will receive a smaller tin and a stern note. Cecil has argued that his result was due to a hidden mouse. The Chairman has told him that the hidden mouse is a metaphor, and that metaphors are not bonuses.
