Yeah, About That Tax-Free Bonus

 The one thing I've noticed over the past week...lot of Germans went to their bosses, and asked about this 1,000 Euro tax-free 'bonus' deal that the Chancellor  worked up between the CDU-CSU and SPD. The vast majority of bosses came back, and said the bonus from them is not going to happen....mostly because of the  economic woes going on.

Needless to say....whoever dreamed up this tax-free bonus concept....arranged for probably 75-percent-or-more of Germans to be fairly negative of the work-climate. 

I don't think they really understood things well enough....on how you can screw up morale within a company.

Various comments on social  media are laying there....openly harsh and critical....of the companies themselves, and the Merz coalition.

The other odd thing?  Well....public workers (city/state)....they kinda  want  the deal, and there's virtually no villeage/city with ample cash to hand out 1,000 Euro per employee.   

Just kinda funny how they met and created a four-star mess out of nothing.
