I don't post here much anymore but was hoping to get some advice or help with anyone who is familiar with HR or pay etc at jobs. I won't name the previous employer but I worked for them the past 3 1/2 years. It's a major electronics retailer that isn't doing very well so I left the company for a more stable job. I quit sept. 17th.

I was able to receive two types of bonus while working, a monthly bonus based off revenue, and a quarterly bonus based off my stores P&L and revenue. The Quarter 3 for thus company is from August-October. So left exactly half way in the quarter. I have many friends that still work and have told me they received a bonus for this quarter. So I called HR to ask why I didn't receive a pro rated bonus for my time at the store and my departments performance etc. they stated that I had to be in position till November 3rd(first day of quarter 4) to receive any kind of bonus. From what they always engraved in your head is that time work = time paid and I should receive a bonus based off my time and performance at the store. I did sign job offer forms when I got promoted to a manager, but I never signed a document going over m bonus structure and that if I don't finish the quarter I won't receive any. I asked HR to send the document that stats that and they just said "it's available on our website for employees to access and read, it's not a signed document".

Am I fighting a lost cause or should I contact my store etc? 25% bonus would be nice right about now.

Yeah it's best buy, just feel like I want to get back as much as they owe me. For people who said I didn't earn it, I was a sale manager for computers, tablets, and mp3. August is tax free weekend which is 80% my departments, my department is the only reason why they would bonus hah

Its a BONUS you quit honestly you dont deserve it. What if you quit two weeks prior to the end of the quarter. Then they did 50 million in sales, do you still deserve the bonus? Since it could go either way when someone quits mid-quarter they are right and you are wrong. I personally think it was petty to even ask.

    • I know every jersey thread goes in this direction, but I feel the need to say it.  The Chinese knockoffs are not your friend. Not only does the money not go to the panthers, but you don't control where it does go. The athletic did an excellent podcast on the business of counterfeit shirts not too long ago. I could care less about the legality of it, but the morality of it is no bueno. Now I need to wash off the "defends billionaire class" off myself, but like don't give your money to those people. If you can't afford a jersey, just go to ebay, or a thrift store, or wear a t shirt. 
    • A friend of mine, Chip, was taking an exam in a business course that he had failed twice before.  He would have to drop out of his major if he failed it for a third time--he claimed the professor, Dr. Brown, despised him, and several others who had Dr. Brown's class with Chip confirmed that Dr. Brown's hatred for Chip was obvious.  Before the exam, Chip was up all night cramming, confiding to his roommate Jeff how nervous he was.  Jeff was understanding and listened carefully.  During the exam (an evening course) Jeff was at work delivering flowers for a local florist.  As Chip describes it, a woman (another student who worked with Jeff) entered the classroom with flowers and a card with the words "Dr. Brown" written on the card.  The professor immediately sent the girl out; Jeff was watching from the hallway.  She left the flowers on his desk and scampered out.  Chip laughed because he thought the professor, a man he hated, was being pranked.  A few minutes later, the professor opened the envelope, and read the card.  Chip was still laughing.  He walked toward the students, still taking a timed test, and stopped at Chip's desk, staring at him.  Chip stopped laughing.  He dropped the card on Chip's desk while snarling at him silently.  Chip read the card, "Dr. Brown.  I can't tell you how much I have grown under the three semesters of your tutelage and guidance.  You are my role model.  I will miss you." --Chip Fxxxxx.  Chip made a C.
