Just got a bonus from my side gig of helping a very small company that specializes in Shlaer-Mellor development. It was bigger than the bonus I got from my main gig, which is a multinational, billion-dollar corporation.
The small gig pays out bonuses like a cooperative in that it is profit and participation based. The main gig pays based on some mystical formula, rooted in EBITDA, which somehow always seems to be more pliable than firmly based on numbers.
