Nothing at my p/t job. At DH's job, they don't get anything except occasional pizza or a BBQ.

Uhhhh we have a coffee, tea, hot chocolate machine. Water cooler and ice.

Of course you get to eat the leftover food from a meeting but again there are VULTURES that work here so forget about that!

I interned at Bloomberg and we had the following everyday: every type of beverage imaginable, fresh fruit, every cookie and cracker, packs of tuna w/crackers, oatmeal cups, and candy galore. On Fridays we had NY pretzels with several different kinds of mustard.

A Water cooler..........but they have a tube that uses their own water.....and the filter has been replaced last September! Chat Icon

Food.......lets see.....we are allowed to eat the leftover food from meetings w/ customers but I dont dare touch that crap b/c I have no idea who's skeevy hands touched what?

They do, however, order a huge lunch the day before X-mas Eve (our office grab bag day), and thats bout it...so Once a year we get a "special office food perk".

ummm, water? coffee and milk if your lucky and the milk hasn't passed its expiration date.

sometimes people will bring in bagels or donuts.

personally, i'm lucky, my boss lets me put my lunch and breakfast from the cafeteria on his tab. but everyone else is on their own.

We have a water cooler, which I used to take for granted untill I learned DH gets his water from a water foutnain! ( ew!)

We have Coffee & tea & once a year have a fancy Christmas lunch followed by free drinking & occasionaly we have a lucnh when someone is leaving or something like that.

I get to eat on the company tab when I travel, and sometimes those are kinda fancy too.

We used to order in lunch for birthdys, but we stopped that a few years ago.

Free water and we get to eat whatever is left over at meetings (if anything is left).

Our boss takes us out for our birthdays for lunch usually.

And we have a free Christmas Party that has a ton of food the last day before vacation.

However at my last job we got nothing! And you had to drive to get even a drink so this is much better. At least there are vending machines and a cafeteria if i want to eat.

We have beverages: water, coffee, tea, hot chocolate and some other something in the coffee machine.

3 or 4 times a year we have a pizza party plus a year end holiday party which is now catered (it used to be sandwiches & finger foods).
