Yesterday I asked how the company kept you happy with perks, some answers

That was an interesting one,  plus a side chat on AOL about it.

  • One comment said they had no idea coffee was a perk.  Well yes!  We had a choice here since there are not as many coffee drinkers, that one is a small 'club' of people that pay.  In return we get unlimited free soda and some juices plus free water dispenser.  Water you ask!  Well our building does not offer water service anywhere but near the central elevator core.  So that means coffee must be made and water added and the drinking water from the tap was awful.  So we opted for the big bottles.
  • Pool and an indoor golfing range was another comment. that came in.  Indoor golf range?!?!?!  Now that is something unique and new to hear.  Of course if it is one little putting cup with electronic return that was not funny :-)

So are the days of in-house massages and crazy outings and food delivery gone also?  What about small perks like paid parking, Internet access or health clubs?
