Make an option to pay for an upgrade to a window or an aisle or business or 1st if available....more money and done. Think you work too many hours? More money and throw them on the icrew swap board. Rarely see a “just pick up” that doesn’t get picked up. Unless or course coverage is tight and they don’t pick up the straight time hoping for the green.
All true - but you're paying for it with after-tax dollars. If it's provided by the company, you aren't paying the 35% or so in various taxes (federal, state, local, sales, etc) to pay for the item.
