Employees Share The Lamest “Perks” They’ve Been Offered At Work, And We’re Secondhand Offended

It seems like most jobs these day will try to offer you anything and everything except for a decent wage. Like, “Every Thursday is pancake day in the break room but you need to clock out to eat them and only one pancake per employee.”

You think I’m joking but that is literally what a warehouse I worked at did for it’s minimum wage employees. And they were the gross frozen packaged pancakes. We had to heat them in the same microwave Kyle zaps his fish in.

The workers in this Reddit thread are sharing their stories of the lamest benefits or “perk” employers offered them instead of fair pay or paid time off. Or you know, something any employee would actually want.
