Stats on receiving carry

How many of you have actually received carry checks? Please share some details. I'll go first - I've worked at 3 PE firms. Was not eligible for carry at first 2. At my current firm, I am largely vested but no payments yet. Fund is 0.8x DPI and ~2x TVPI. In summary, working in the industry for 12+ years and no carry yet.
