Perks that You Should Never Ask for at Work!

Careerbuilder recently surveyed almost 3,000 U.S. Managers and asked them what was the most memorable "perk" that they had been asked for on the job by employees. These answers are a sampling of the findings:


• Install a tanning bed in the break room.

• Put beer in the vending machine.

• Allow jail time to be covered under family medical leave policy.

• Put in a special smoking area for medical marijuana.

• Permit employee to work only during daylight hours because of fear of the dark.

• Give employee more time off to pursue side business as a clown.

• Let employee replace his desk with a futon so he can work lying down.

• Hold the next team meeting in Hawaii.

• Require the HR manager to wear nicer shoes.
