Will there be an anual gift for Level 4 Local Guides in 2016 too?

[MichaelRichter]

I'm asking this question, because I saw that in the description of the Level 4, the anual gift got removed. Now I'm curious if we will get one this year again? It got asked in our unofficial Google+ community a lot. So I'm now here to get a answer to that question. Thanks in advance for a solution.

Hi @MichaelRichter,

An annual gift 2015 that was a t-shirt, but this year local guide team won't give us an annual gift anymore, because they changed description of the Level 4.  Do you know how many level 4 and level 5's local guides in the world this year? The number of local guides continues to grow day by day.  In my opinion that's gift will involve lots of costs for google.

Hey @MichaelRichter, yes @YumiSapporo is correct. The annual gift perk has been removed from the benefit for level 4 and above. So far there are no signs that there will be one this year, but Google is constantly revamping the program, so you never know what might happen in the future.

Thanks for the reply. It's a bit of a bummer, that we don't get anything anymore. It would have been cool, to have a gift from Google. 😞

The reality is, given the temporary bait to recruit free workers for Google, the bait has been removed.

Work harder slaves, work.

Just as a question, what's with us not receiving a present this year? We all worked hard and truthfully all year along just to be ditched over.
