Well, forgetting about the two weeks I'll be missing from my secondment in the UK, things are looking pretty darn good right now. As it turns out, international secondees get a couple of monetary bonuses for their "dedication" to the company.
First off, I'll get a 10% bonus on my pay when I return to the U.S. Granted, this only applies to the 10 weeks I will be there, but 10% is nothing to scoff at. I'm envisioning that money quickly being turned into a new road-bicycle perhaps...
As if this wasn't enough, I'm also getting a daily bonus of 22.50 pounds (about $40.00) per day for living expenses. Over the course of 10 weeks that almost $3000! Basically that only goes toward food & gas because all of my rent & utilities will be paid for already. I can't imagine that I'll be spending $3000 on food, so it will be going toward travel expenses.
What can I say? Things are looking good.
