My old company had free tamons as well. I thought it was awesome too.

Further, there was a ktichen area that had free sodas, bottled water and really good designer coffee. The catch was, it was for the “Executives” only. Some of the “Executive’s” secretaries said the critria t be considered an executive was “Senior VP and above”, others said it meant “VP and above”. I said, “Hey, I came in today with this can of ice cold diet pepsi in my pantyhose”.

They also have ridiculously delicious gyros for lunch on some Mondays and hangover curing breakfast sandwiches every morning. Oooh yeah.

A friend of mine used to work for Johnson and Johnson. She got a discount on all the stuff they sold. Reach toothbrushes were 25Â¢, Neutrogena body oil was like a $1, I stocked up while she worked there, it was fantastic!

FREE STUFF IS THE BEST THING EVER.

I once temped in an office where on my first day I got a grand tour of the pantry area filled with different coffee blends, snack bars, chips, juice, soda, milk, cereal–all free. I thought I had hit the mother lode, something that would at least detract from the general crappyness of the assignment. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a one-day assignment. I may have offloaded a few granola bars and bags of chips on my way out.

Beet, what’s the vibe for you around the office, being the new girl, especially since you don’t actually work with anyone that you work around?

Oh my God, I’m so jealous. Do you get free Kit Kats and potato chips too!? Shit. I would gain 15 pounds within a month of working there. Free stuff rules. Even when it’s not that great, it’s still great because it’s free. Oh and happy birthday, Anna.
