The Teas are on Me..... - kevin wooldridge - 1st July 2006 I notice that the current job ad on BAJR for West Yorkshire mentions that a lunch allowance is paid. Nice perk. But set me wondering what the general situation is these days regarding site tea and coffee. Do you get it free or do you have a kitty? Does it extend to bottled water in summer or cupasoup in winter? And how about the ice-cream perk in hot weather, cakes on Friday/birthdays etc. Where I am currently working we have to buy our own tea and coffee but we do get a generous daily subsistence rate. There is a tradition however that any visitor to a site brings some kind of comestible gift, be it chocolate, jelly babies or biscuits. I have only known one person in UK archaeology to do the biscuit thing on a regular basis however (and many Lincolnshire archies are very grateful!!) I'm thinking that this might be something that advertisers might like to mention on their BAJR ads. A small thing, but first impressions of a potential employer could be all important. Utterly gutted by the footy by the way.... The Teas are on Me..... - gumbo - 2nd July 2006 No amount of biscuits is going to make things better... Will analyse later but bascially Portugal were quite a s*** team and were there for the taking. Why oh why etc etc Hope all is well aside from the World Cup G The Teas are on Me..... - m300572 - 3rd July 2006 'I have only known one person in UK archaeology to do the biscuit thing on a regular basis however' I have been known to take choccie biscuits to Burnley in my county curating days - fair exchange for the tea supplied by the diggers. |
