of course Essential workers deserve bonusses
i'd also say give some a medal especially those who had been in frontline, at NHS for example in UK, other hospital workers in other countries too
no here in Netherlands they decided to give one comedian (she is on our radio every saturday, i mean she does not deserve a medal, since i find her quite hypocrite, for example she tells people ''stay home'' and she herself just goes to every store she can find, even has her own theatre shows again, above 140 people (which exceeds 100 people limit) but she is allowed bc miss is seen as a hero)
my point is if she gets a medal, praise, then the real essential workers also do deserve something, some bonus, praise, respect by the people
