Since being shared, her post has amassed a variety of reactions on social media.
In a shocking incident, a woman recently stated that her company was giving her a potato as her Christmas bonus. She took to X (formerly Twitter) and said that the company is also taxing her on the same since it costs $15. "My work is doing a potato bar as our Christmas bonus. I'm literally getting a hospital potato as a bonus," Amanda B said in a post that has since gone viral. My work is doing a potato bar as our Christmas bonus. I'm literally getting a hospital potato as a bonus. They also said it has a $15 value so it will be taxed on our next check. Does anyone need an assistant so I can just quit right now? YOU ATTENTION PLEASE! The moment you've all been waiting for, my $15 taxed potato. pic.twitter.com/rVAmaDFD6N
She added, "They also said it has a $15 value so it will be taxed on our next check. Does anyone need an assistant so I can just quit right now?" She said in a thread, "This is my Charlie Brown villain origin story. People telling me to start a fight or a riot, girl, I need my job. Idk, you guys, do I show up with Tupperware and just get my $$$$ worth in sour cream?"
Nonetheless, she acknowledged that the potato bar was an improvement over the gift of a 30-minute video conference call with the company's executives the year before. "This is an improvement from the 30 minute Wexbex with leadership as our gift last year. It was a Webex because the year before they had to be in the same room with us and they're too good and not doing that again," she said.
