I don't get a comp at work but...
I get paid for 20 hours a week, I'm usually at work only 6-10 hours a week, I'm hardly supervised, I can go in at ANY time of the day I want, and if I'm in a particular rush on a given day, I can be in and out in 10 minutes. I've even completely missed days some times, but still get paid for them. Worried about losing the job? well, I've been doing it for the past 16 months, so nope!
In fact, I even asked my boss about quitting and she INISISTED on giving me a month off work w/ no pay, instead of getting someone else for the job. and the pay is $7 an hour in a state where minimum is $5.50. And I'm just an undergrad college student.
And did I mention the job is AQUATICS LAB TECHNICIAN?
I am so spoiled rotten

I work 10-15 hours weekly out of my house doing customer support for a series of simulation websites: http://www.thirdrow.net . I'm the only support person other than the site owner who also does all of the design, upkeep, etc., so he pays me well to be there when I'm needed. Still, I don't have set hours so I can work pretty much whenever I want unless we have something major happening. It's the best job I've ever had--I make 1 1/2x as much as I was making working 35 hours weekly in an office, and I don't have to pay for work clothes, lunches out, etc. My house stays clean, I'm not tired all the time, and although I don't get paid to bum around on fish sites, I have plenty of time to do it if I'm so inclined. My boss is gonna have to fire me to get rid of me, cause no way will I ever willingly leave this job.
