At the end of every year I'll be bemused when my employer gives me a chunk of free money for essentially doing the job I'm paid to do. I'll say a slightly awkward "Thank you, you really didn't have to..." and wander away from the meeting.

I don't understand bonuses really, I've come to simply accept they're a thing that happens and I'll cross that bridge when I come to it each year.

They exist to reward when times are good, but to not require pay cuts when times are lean.
