Job Packages
-
Distance of commute: about 3 meters. Flexible working hours: all of them, unless Herself complains. Official permission to goof off from the boss of the company. Simple dress code: whatever I want except when I meet new customers when it has to be smart. Animals allowed in office. (Not the only place where that has been allowed: one place I worked had a bunch of dogs and there was always time to throw a ball in the orchard for them)

You cant outrun the world, but there is no harm in getting a head start Real stupidity beats artificial intelligence every time.

Car, parking place, food, drink (unfortunately no alcoholic ;))...
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)
Car - no chance Parking place - got food - not even a vending machine for that drink - ok we have free coffee and tea (and I was thinking more individual rather than company wide, we have a pay freeze and are thinking of ways to get round it)

I'm working from home today and the wife had This Morning on the telly where they were doing a piece on penis enlargement operations ("I was born with 10 inches but I wanted a monster") so thanks to Phil and Holly I now know exactly what constitutes your package, and it is not pleasant.

Food and drink are indeed company wide, but car is a very individual. I also offered phone but turned it down as the taxation is too high for one do not use phone more than twice a day... Bonuses (we didn't got nothing in last two years :(( )? Gift cards (we getting those twice a year on big holidays)?

You mean like stealing stationary? This week I learnt that the reason we have a turnstyle into the car park from the offices is because too many people were collecting things from stores and walking them to their car and then home.

Funny you should mention that...the same company had an annual paintball contest and barbeque in the bosses garden between the staff and the customers. It was great for getting a little pay-back for the previous year! :-D

One or two of the customers, I was tempted myself! One of my great pleasures was being able to shoot a certain female customer (who knew nothing about her job) directly in the stomach from about three feet. Bruised? Oh yes...

Working right next to a nature reserve where I go for my 30 minute lunchtime daily walk. Working with a great bunch of people. Travelling against the traffic into and out of work, which only takes 20 minutes. Get to pretty much decide what and how I do what I do.

So, I use Excel to make all things equal. If something stands out I add or subtract it in order to balance. For example, if the particular position has a terrible commute, negotiate a higher salary. Same for parking expenses. If the position has free, good lunches, subtract it, etc. Then just compare cash apples to cash apples. So often in the negotiation phase I am presented with the Statement, well you have to consider our great benefits ... I did, and they were lacking. Excel is King.

Talking about our packages is non-KSS.
