Damn Ryan, I would relocate to work for you. How does one go about moving to England anyway?

Great idea, I’ll leave it on screen next time $boss is around :)

Does this count as some kind of benefit, and does that go on to effect what tax either you or the employee pays?

I reckon it’s another cunning plan by Ryan to break the morale of the rest of us.
That 4-day week trick did hit me hard first time round I have to admit and now he’s gone and done it again! ;)

It’s a nice thing to do for your employees, for sure.

But do you really need to announce it to the world?

[...] Carsonified employees get an iPhone as their corporate IT geekery, along with a MacBook 23″. Wish I could work there! Nice approach to staff morale Ryan, keep them in with the latest kit and hopefully keep them happy (along with a great working environment, etc, etc). Now I wonder if I can convince my boss to get me one… [...]

[...] So when I read their latest post on giving all their employee’s iPhones as a surprise present I just had to blog about my admiration for how they run things. Not only do they furnish you with a Macbook and 23inch display, but you get a fully-paid-for iPhone aswell! Perks aren’t everything you know, so why not have a 4 day working week thrown in as well. A 4 day working week is absolutely genius and if I ever start a company one day, this is something I will work towards right from the beginning. [...]

Remember The Milk is the ish (in a good way). I’ve been using RTM as my work task manager for the past 6 months.

On the work/life balance part…

For 2008, I made a new years resolution to focus on the whole work life balance thing and making sure to include personal tasks/goals in RTM which I then review with my wife weekly. Its only been a few weeks but now that my wife has visibility into my work and personal tasks/goals, she feels so much more involved and helps contribute to my success.

Pretty insane Ryan – wouldn’t mind working for Carsonified! :) Been following you guys since you rebranded and I’m extremely impressed with the rep that you’ve built up. Keep up the good work.
