I work Monday thru Thursday, with a Friday thrown in once a month. I get comp days for working a lot of hours [when we have meetings we have to attend], 30+ days of vacation a year, I can leave after 6 hours and it counts as a full day and if the weather is bad we work from home. Oh yeah, if you have a service scheduled at your house, you can work from home also.

SEMA tickets with all expenses paid every year

Company paid vacations for contest winners. I just have to set them up.

Completely flexible hours and locations.

I’m in automotive parts sales.

I can get tickets to most any event I want, within reason. I only pull that card occasionally so I don't dry up the well. I get the occasional expenses-paid boondoggle like the trip I'm taking to Telluride soon with my son. There's snacks and booze at work. I can work from out of office if need be. And frankly, every time I need to do something mundane but necessary during work hours, such as doctor appointments or license renewal, I tip my hat in respect to the people who labor under hourly rules who don't have the flexibility I do.

I want a job. I could get back into the auto performance industry. I would even move over the big river.

I have a gubmint job that I really enjoy. I'm am legally not allowed any perks. I do, however, have a partially publicly funded pension that will pay me more after I retire than I currently make working.

Annual profit sharing cash/401k. Last year it happened twice.

Discounts at auto parts stores, paint stores. I had a list of them at one point.

I believe we get some discount on new GM vehicles.

Masseuse comes three times a week.
Doctor on site weekly.

Concert/football/event tickets pretty regularly

Newest perk is a company owned medical clinic. Just stop in for whatever is ailing you and your taken care of. No copayments.

I'd possibly kill for that schedule

It is quite nice. I just started it a few months ago. A few other people in my same position within the company had it so I lobbied my boss for it.

I forgot we got that last year too, an on-site clinic. My co-pays are small already but there are none on-site. They can prescribe everything but narcotics. We also have a brand new gym that was opened last year with personal trainers etc, all free.

Biggest perk. My job allowed me to retire at 50. My retirement pay is more money than when I worked.

OK Bozos, stop clowning around.

I get to use this 5-6 times a year. Turns 2 days of driving and a day of meetings into a one day trip. Honestly, I could use it 12 times if I really wanted to. It goes to our plant once a month. 7 hour drive or a 54 minute flight....

Like others, I get to reap the hotel and car rental award benefits. We stayed on Miami Beach last year on my IHG points.

Lunch meetings quite often. I'm actually kind of sick of the same free food. Hard to complain though!

I probably saved $10,000-12,000 when building the house due to employee discounts on various materials.
