Good question. Generous mileage reimbursement, careful tallying of tips and putting the tip function in front of clients point of sale, employee birthdays celebrated, drinks and snacks in office which evolved into breakfast foods. Gift cards for car washes. Coffee gift cards. Candy dish or other goodies in office. Turkeys or grocery gift cards for Thanksgiving, small bonus at Christmas with card and gift. Take manager to lunch/brunch. Flexible days off, no evening/weekends/holidays or if we do work them is is voluntary, and paid at over time pay. Health care coverage is still out of our reach but would be the biggest thing.
We also **bleep** off steam by sharing a cocktail often on Fridays!
Ooo, what a nice idea! I love a good cocktail 🍹
(also, it looks like the word 'blow' was one of our moderated words! I took off the filter so it shouldn't be filtered in the future 👍)After a week of hard work, I'm sure that's much appreciated!!!
We have Beer Wednesdays! We're across the street from a woman-owned restaurant / micro brewery and she's freaking fabulous. They have $7 growler fills on Weds so we try and have a cold growler of craft beer available when they get back to the shop. Quarterly, we try and treat everyone out and get together. It's great seeing everyone all gussied up and gabbin'. We try to cover their first couple cocktails / apps when we go out. We have barbequed for them, hosted a craft night, bonfire party, etc.
