QotD: Job Perks
What do you love most about your job?
In my line of work; (click here to know more about my job); there is little to love but these little perks are not so bad:
- Circulating your business card around and knowing that you're networking with top companies (It kinda feels cool to name-drop some huge Clients whose management teams know me by my nickname)
- Unlimited Internet access (officially, we call it desk research; but really, it's more like hopping from one social networking site to another, *sssshhhh)
- Long Client Servicing hours. Meetings, presentations, workshops, etc usually take more than half a day so its actually "petiks" the whole day and when it's done, it's usually too late to go back to the office so; derecho uwi agad. =p
- Client-given perks such as free workshops, corporate gifts, corporate event invites and such. I swear, I must've taken home tons of grocery food items (and even items not yet released in the market) back home for my family to try.
- Sorry kung mababaw, but free food during FGDs are always a perk! My choice of restaurant pa! =)
- Travel opportunities! With matching hotel accommodation and a per diem allowance! I'm crossing my fingers for a Morocco trip.
