    Perks of your job

    Pinched this idea from another board:

    If you are employed then what perks does your employer offer you over & above your wage/bonuses??

    For me its free cable TV, Broadband Internet & Landline telephone :D

    Reduced price legal work for private client work eg. wills and conveyancing

    Interest free loan when I start training

    Neither of which apply at the minute, though as we're going through an extremely busy time, I do get double time and a day in lieu for overtime (usually time and a half).

    I work for a family business at the mo..

    So.. I get paid bout 15K a year for doing very little.

    I only work 8 - 4

    Weekends are time and a half (sat) and Double time (sun)

    However..

    As its a family business a lot of shit gets brought to work with me.

    My dad is a grumpy little shit so, as there are no boundaries where family are concerned, I get wrong a lot.

    I have to listen to the lads slagging him off constantly 2 (Sometimes justifiably)

    I also get really really filthy and occasionally fall off cranes :(

    nothing with mine really apart from the fact that i get to teach children new things all the time and have a huge impact upon their lives...which isnt materialistic but i'd prefer perks like that than anything else...
    get loooooads of holidays though...13 weeks of a year i think....:king: xxxx
