Someone close to me works for a major mining company which just happens to be 23 BILLION DOLLARS in debt.The new CEO has just declared that the free fruit bowl which is placed in all of the offices for the use of the executive staff will be discontinued to save costs.They are complaining about this inconvenience bitterly even tho the lowest paid employee is paid a minimum $100,000.00 PA. I'm shaking my head in amazment.

Hugs. I get a lot of hugs from the cutest little man on the planet ... I get a lot of hugs from the cutest adult sized man on the planet and free pottery whenever I like. I also am presented with the opportunity to trade my work for other pieces of art quite often.
I have it made in the shade!

I get the joy of hugs and kisses from my grandchildren. And "special tv time" with the older one, (3 1/2). We snuggle under a blanket on my easy chair, as he watches his one allowed educational show. He usually wakes me to say, "Papa, wake up, it's all over".. I value the time, and the short nap with him on my lap.

Retirement perks only......I am free to do WHAT I choose, WHEN I choose, HOW I choose, IF I choose. No boss to tell me WHAT, WHEN, HOW, or IF and no demanding, nasty people to deal with, simply because that's part of dealing with the public. Being in a position to enjoy my life as I see fit, is the biggest and best perk ever!

Let's see, my last trucking job, the perk was, a turkey for Thanksgiving and a ham for Christmas. I should mention, the company I drove for supplied groceries for chain stores so we got our perks from the warehouse on the lot ;)
