an office with a door (and perhaps a lock) for every
employee
overtime pay for SALARIED employees (even if it's just
the standard pay rate pro-rates to the nearest 15
minutes)
choice of office furniture and workdesk
choice of computer and peripherals
corporate charge card (only got one of these once, and
it was definitely handy) None of this 'pay it yourself
and we'll reimburse you" crap - that adds up when you
go to conferences and such.
4 day work week (I'd much rather work 10 hours a day
for 4 days a week)
and as long as we're daydreaming...
free car
free house
free vacation home in a region of your choice
free boat or other recreational vehicle (for the
vacation home, of course)
ok... time to stop... I could go on forever at this
rate *g*
