work Best. Benefit. Ever.

I just applied for a production job at Fannie Mae (as always, a job I could actually do well; I don’t tend to apply for the others).

Check out this, from one of their employee benefits lists:

Employer-Assisted Housing: To help make home ownership affordable, eligible employees can obtain a loan to use toward down payment and closing costs, or to reduce the interest rate on a first mortgage. As employment continues, a progressively larger share of the loan principal is forgiven.

For. Giv. En. That is to say, free money. And you’re eligible for it after only six months.

They also have that Compressed Work Schedule thing that makes the Metro parking lots empty on Fridays. I covet that.
