I work for a non profit and we had a big dinner Thursday night for our top donors.  We were there until 10pm.  When I got to work Friday morning, there was an email from our boss saying thanks for our work to make the dinner successful.  He left a few tasks and then told us to go home and he'd pay us for the day!  WOOOOOT

I can't remember working for such a generous employer!

I have had employers of all types when I worked.  Some were generous and understanding, others not so much.  It is always nice to have a surprise like that.  It makes you feel special and valued. Things like this can make employees feel more loyal and work a bit harder at times.  Too bad all employers don't understand that giving a little bit sometimes gets you something back!

That's really nice.  It's good to be appreciated.

I don't agree.  Seems to me most times it makes the employee feel entitled and come to expect you to give them more and more.

Employers do not owe you anything more than the agreed upon compensation per hour and any benefits you were offered when you were hired.

I can see it both ways.  But I am noticing more and more people think their employer should give them more and more.  You are an employee.  You agreed to take the job for the pay offered.  I get tired of hearing people cry and complain and say they deserve more and should make as much as the owner of the company.  No, you shouldn't.

I love employers like that! Care more about people then anything else and show appreciation...

I've had generous employers in the past, but they're usually self-employed and can make the decision to be that way.

Now I think it's pretty much a thing of the past. Too bad. Just like pensions.

It's a boss like that that keeps his employees happy and in good spirits so they don't quit. Lucky you for having a boss like that!

I too work for a non-profit Ministry,  It is all volunteers. So we do not  make any money, it all  goes back into the  Ministry.  Of  course it is only   5  hours because I go in early and we are only open  2 days a week. But it is hairy. This Tuesday I handled  only 49 people getting groceries and  the first 11/2 hours I did  30 people.  then the rest was  pretty  evely space.  But  we have  been known to push  up to  80 people through n  4 hours.  So  this  July the fourth  we are closed and I have 6 days off and I am going to take advantage of  resting.

A very nice employer.  Lucky for you to be working there.

Wow, you're blessed to work for such a generous employer!

Work for a large corporation and have some generous bosses in the past and some not so generous but appreciate them when show a little kindness to their employees.  Think that this motivates an employee and is good for moral.
