I have a friend who used to work in a sleep apnea clinic abroad and every morning his first job was to wake guys up and remove the special pads attached to patient’s scalps.

He loved seeing the constant boners daily.

Are there any benefits you enjoy that you can share here?

I’ve had full coverage insurance.
And decent vacation, annually.
Working at a venue meant I knew a lot of performing artists. And I never paid for shows, even if I was not scheduled that night. Had a good collection of CDs given by the artists, too. (It helped that my day job was reporting, and I often had review copies ahead of the show. I greatly preferred digital versions.) Many of those artists are still friends.
when I was half of a dye studio, we travelled a LOT. Slept in a van most of the time, got to park and wake in some gorgeous places.

Now I own my own business.
Perks? I can limit the jerks I work with, contractees or the individual clients seen.

My job is the pits. My salary is ridiculously low, It offers no health benefits or retirement, but my coworkers have all that. The boss is a complete bitch. One day I could be working in the office pushing paper, and the next I can be breaking bricks with a sledge hammer.

If I didn't own the place I would quit.

Cakes.

I used to volunteer at a local museum - the 'boss' was an elderly gentleman, whose friend would often bake cakes and scones etc. for him. He'd bring them in for the staff to have at morning/afternoon tea. But his friend would bake them faster than we could eat them, LOL. So when the museum freezer was getting too full, we'd be allowed to take some home.

My job is basically nothing but perks.

Sure, sometimes I might have to deal with someone having a shitty day and they take it out on me. But after I give them what they need to chill the fuck out I usually get an apology when that happens.

I get to work with a plant I love as much as I love my family, I get to help people in pain, and I get to feel good while doing it all because I don't have to worry whatsoever about anyone firing me for using cannabis before work, and on my breaks.

Perks? All the free coffee I wanted... 'cept I wasn't a coffee drinker. ;)
That was one of my newspapers.
I created the other perk....I lived next door, no commute to office. Still had to drive to six piddly towns to cover stuff.
