Office swag

What's the best office gift you've ever received, outside of banging interns on the copy machine during the Christmas party of course.

Got a super elite umbrella today at work. :users:

Years ago, we got the skybox for an evening session @ the NBC tournament.  House of Schwanns skybox.  All the free beer you want.

Was invited to Canada to fish in the middle of no where for a week.  Boss made me turn it down.  Stupid ethics guidelines.   :curse:

I'm fortunate.  I once got a $400 ipod in a Yankee Swap for Christmas.  The cool part - there was supposedly a $20 limit for gifts.

Laptop is most likely something they will take away when you leave.  Hold tight to that mug.

I got a very nice two-piece luggage set(the wheel on type of carry on).  Works great for the two to three day trips.

Other than that, I permanently borrowed a nice Canon scanner when I quit my first job.

Pretty much the same for me. But I also got one of those trendy metal water bottles that make the water taste like you are licking a battery.

insulated beverage cup (that I use for coffee everyday)
polo shirt w/ company logo
couple of t shirts w/ company logo
hat w/ company logo
sexual relations with one girl in my department
choice of small, free food gift pack every Christmas

So in other words....... :flush:

Current job gives nothing.

Prior job gave out a bunch of trinkets: gym bag, mug, brass compass, stocking cap, nice umbrellas, beach towel, etc.  But the real benefits were swanky holiday parties, first class international travel and frequent expensed meals.  (Also, they blatantly hired only attractive girls for support staff.)
