    ebeon are just t00 damn l33+

    They've just given every employee a bag, fleece, t-shirt, pen, pin, mug, umbrella and cap. Now, I probably won't use most of it, but the fleece is really nice and I need an umbrela wink.gif

    Anyone else get this kind of free stuff?



    All the best,

    rountinely get free stuff and promo junk. It's fun after the first few times but when you realise they are giving you stuff they get for free for a good job and they get free advertising, you have to wonder.

    I normally give most of the freebie junk away. Other people appreciate it more.

    Free food & beer on a regular basis on company nights out - days we launch sites, days we do particularly well... whatever wink.gif

    Free trips to karting, paintball, comedy club, etc. etc. - they give us free "experiences" rather than "stuff" generally, although I've gotten the odd bonus too for working longer hours or weekends (usually a voucher for a shop of my choice).

    No company fleece tho'- that'd be nice!

    We get all that stuff you mentions too Niall. It's just that this is re-usable stuff (I mean I'll actually wear the fleece and drink outta the mug wink.gif).

    Heh... what happened to it? Did it involve that leather clad gimp you spin people keep there? biggrin.gif

    Did DeV take it home with him or something? (the keg that is, not the gimp) biggrin.gif

    OMFG - who was bored at work then Jerry?!?!?!

    I remember getting all that free stuff - I still have most of it too!

    The day after we went wallop I was at home and wearing my ebeon t-shirt and we decided (me with a LOT of Gin in the system) to get a marker and write the words "UNEMPLOYED: will work for gin" on it which was indeed very funny at the time and I suppose still is when I look at the state of the t-shirt and then remember I spent £60 on gin and bitter alone that night frown.gif

    No wonder I'm broke...



    All the best,
