Hello everyone, I was just curious to see if some of you have special perks that go along with what you do for work. For example I work at a furniture consignment store building, delivering and picking up furniture all day. Well every once and a while someone wants a particular piece of furniture gone from their home that our store cannot sell so we are basically given dibs on what we want. Not all the time does this happen but when it does it is awesome :D

Now, id love to hear if you guys have anything like that or get anything special out of where you work sometimes :D

  • use of internet for private stuff (email, youtube etc) as long as you get your work done
  • ice cream
  • you can work whenever you like (as long as you have enough hours at the end of the week and some other minor constraints)

Nothing but long hours, lots of stress, and very little appreciation. ;)

My boss randomly gave me a Dell Venue 11 Pro last week. I was actually planning on buying a tablet later this year, but never told him. He said this to me and I about lost it! :D Other than that, the usual off-the-page bonuses involve getting lunches a couple times a month.

Generally always had free housing near my schools, no utility bills, freedom to plan classes, smoothies and pizzas every couple weeks at some places. Stress was on tap too, though.

It's not a "special" perk, but you could consider it a perk.
I can surf the internet all day without worry.

Not really perks, but I have pretty good defined benefits which includes 75% off university tuition, 30 days paid vacation and 12 days paid sick leave every year.
