And some very good medical/dental compared to what I hear in private industry.
Oh and he gets to retire when he is the ripe old age of 41!!
Same here!  It's a good thing too because i speed A LOT!

Re: What are the PERKS of your or DH/SO's job?
For me:
a month and half off in summer and holiday breaks
Certain discounts at places through my union
For Dh:
Playing golf at some of the best courses in America for free
Expensive dinners out gratis
Lots of frequent flyer miles
Free car and gas
Free internet since his office in our house
Family medical benefits for $5 with Cigna- Definately my favorite since it would have cost us $500 through my job
Getting to entertain for work

Re: What are the PERKS of your or DH/SO's job?
Me:
Previous job - not giving the name of the company away but let's just say a major house bill is much less than normal because I have employee pricing even though I don't work there anymore.
My current job:
Free medical/dental for myself and DH
Although I wouldn't call it a 'perk' per se, I work 15 minutes from home and get out at 4:30 which I love.
DH's job:
$$$$$$$$$$$
But I don't see him much and he works weekends a lot too now. I want to give back a few thousand for some more quality time with him.

Re: What are the PERKS of your or DH/SO's job?
nothing extravagant.
DH is a cop so the only thing that matters to me is health insurance! i went 4 years without it. he also gets discounts at different types of places like the gym, travel agents, etc
i get a discount at an uber cool restaurant in manhattan
and for my other job, i get into disney world 365 days a week, gets my family members in 12 times a year, 60% off hotels, 20-50% off food and restaurants, etc.

Re: What are the PERKS of your or DH/SO's job?
my DH has no materialistic "perks' although he has often said he'd be worth to me more dead than alive - i think thats a crock. i knew i wasn't marrying money or perks and my biggest perk is having a wonderful, honest, fantastic man as a husband and father to my DC and i'm crazy about him. NOTHING can ever replace that. he's not perfect but neither am i
