Pens, Post-It Pads, the occasional portfolio-pad-book thing, mouse or logo watch (I don't wear wristwatches). Nice trinkets, most of which my wife takes.
Doctors and lawyers get truckloads of vendor gifts. My mother is a cancer researcher. Every coffee mug she owns has a pharmaceutical name on it. Walk around our law office; you'll see calendars, calculators, coffee mugs, pens, pads, clocks...all gifts from court reporting agencies, document management companies, banks, insurance agencies.... If it makes you feel any better, by the way, it's been raining here most of the last two weeks. Of course it's still 77 degrees. :) Oh, Haiku. Hawaiilawyer Images of beach, surf, sand. And lawyers. Oh well. -Ben- Ben M.

So it's on the level of the free pens the drugs companies give to doctors rather than being so much greater than the salary your employer pays that your loyalty lies utterly with Microsoft then? *Phew* Also, can I say again that hawaiilawyer.com sounds impossibly glamorous as I prepare to trudge out of our crumbly dive of an office and across a very cold and soggy London in the dark. I love my job but I still need vitamin D. > -----Original Message----- > From: Ben Schorr [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > The sudden absence of "We Love Our MVPs" Post-It pads and MSDN CD > cases notwithstanding.
