I got mine 5 yrs ago when I joined a so-called dream company and found that along with all the FBP, PF etc, there was a bonus component to be deducted from monthly pay that I may/may not get by the end of year :(<br /><br />It is also true the disappointment stayed with me for the next 3.5 years...till I did a job change :) Now my salary credit SMS does make me happy esp when I think of how proud my parents would be :)EJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13868155622896114392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1050700084750309897.post-86760102501423754802011-09-21T09:08:18.922+05:302011-09-21T09:08:18.922+05:30Shilpa.

However I was proud to have my first salary. I gave all to my Father and he just took Rs. 1 from it and returned to me.
