Yay. I feel valued today. I went to check my pay slips for the last 2 weeks, and attached to one of them was a slip of paper saying "Congratulations Serena, we value your hard work and effort every day" and attached to that was a voucher for a free lunch in the centre. I got a thai beef salad at Sumo salad. It was very nice.

So that put me in a good mood for the rest of the day

what's the nicest thing your employers have done for you?

My boss is awesome.

He always gives me more tips than other people because i work hard most of the time as opposed to standing around talking and doing a half-arsed job.
And sometimes he'll buy us M&Ms or Skittles to eat if we come early to work.
He doesn't make us pay if we break glasses or plates.
But best of all, he doesn't mind us going to the liberty to making ourselves desserts or consuming copious amounts of (his) alcohol after our shifts.
And this is on a daily basis.

I used to get a stack of free donuts after my shifts because they were 1-2 hour shifts at the end of the day...

my old boss was heaps nice, he used to pay for my lunch almost every second or third week, where i worked (i used to work saturdays only during school and 6 days a week holidays)

i used to sell really well he tells me so i guess thats why he did, he let me drive forklift around when i was 15 :D (that was fun)


i worked inside there, there was also an outside which was x100 bigger, theres a whole other side of the building which contains flooring and another even bigger side with building materials (such as fibro)

when it wasnt busy, what you see there didnt exist, id clear it all out and put it in the rack in less than 6 hours the whole place (including masses of sawdust i sweeped because on the right are milling machines)

edit; clarification

and now to my new job;
my very first manager in my section was a C H A M P, but ive gone through like 4 managers, one named phil was a champ as well gave me plenty of breaks for school, but they always get fired or leave, my section is cursed :(
(this is at bunnings warehouse)

My boss made me a birthday cake ^^ and also when i got my acceptance into the Conservatorium they gave me another cake and chocolate crackles- the office always celebrates peoples birthdays and are really friendly, often giving everyone chocolates..
and for major celebrations like Easter, Christmas, valentines day, Chinese New year etc.. they have a christmas tree in the middle of the office (which they haven't ever taken down) and decorate it for each special event , usually with chocolate or good luck charms, and come the festive day.. or leading up to it, everyone gets to pick something off the tree ^_^ (actually it always contains chocolate- but sometimes somethign else)
and every single birthday of someone or major celebratory event that happened to someone they always have a cake, or chocolate crackles! its so cute ^^

My boss gives lets have anything we want for lunch from the store, for free and when we close, whatever is left from the specials, we get to take home.

But as a person, he's not really that nice.
