I just finished a huge project at work. I got it from a guy who had been doing my job for years longer than me, so it was often an uphill battle. I asked for help a lot from anyone who would talk to me about it.
Though my boss technically "did" the project and gets all the credit for the project, he rewarded me as well. I got a 5K bonus (well, more like 3K after taxes). He hand-delivered the check to me and said, "Dog, you know, I wasn't sure you could do [the project]. But you did a really good job. I'm going to make sure this goes in your reports."
I'm not sure what is worth more to me: the respect of my boss, the 5K, or the good review. Now, off to celebrate! I'm taking Friday off!
