Perks & Food.

am getting my game face and converting to right frame of mine to spend the next three nights at Mom's. I love Mom but sometimes she can be a tad difficult to be around. Of course I am never difficult to be around.

There are some perks to being there. Which made me thinks of the different kind of perks that employers offer:

And food is always on the agenda. Sometimes we eat out. Sometimes we cook and sometimes I got get stuff and bring it home. Once in a while it is Kentucky Fried Chicken but I don't think I will do that this time, four a couple of reasons. First, I have gift cards from Red Robin and Subway and mom has gift cards from Sheri's. Second, read on:

Though desert isn't high on the agenda for either Mom and I we might dabble in a snack once in a while:

Of all those perks, the free meals (assuming the food is good) are the most appealing to me. But there's plenty there to like.

The KFC story is scary. What on earth is a "twister chicken wrap" anyway?

The guy with the M&Ms is very thoughtful. I like the peanut ones best, myself.

Holding good thoughts for the time with Mom.

Perks? When I was working we were grateful to have health insurance and get an hour for lunch. I like the idea of free meals and the dog-friendly office.

Fortunately, we are not fans of KFC!

Oh - I'd really like an office with a pool and massage therapists, too (G).

Hi Pat

I also think free meals are a good perk. At the season job we get free meals every Monday and Friday. I am all for that.

The twister chicken wrap is like a chicken wrap sandwich with little pieces of chicken. I haven't tried and really don't plan to anytime soon.

I like both kind of M & M's but the green ones are my favorite.

Hi DR

Good thoughts worked as we had a really nice day yesterday.

I am with you, I would have been happy with health insurance. I like animal friendly employers because it shows compassion.

I'm no longer a fan of KFC.

A pool and a massage therapist sounds good to me too!
