When your boyfriend works in IT and you don’t have to pay for virus protection for your computer. Nope. Not at all.
Oh babe, I also need Microsoft office because I refuse to pay for it. Can you please put it on my laptop too?
Yep, I like that.
What are some fringe benefits you get with your partner?

Getting Academy screeners? It’s the silver lining on the “pay $6k for a guild membership while not being able to work because of nonsensical restrictions” cake!

Academy Awards screeners they send out so Academy folks can vote.
He has a complicated arrangement that limits what jobs he can accept for the time being. It’s taking some time to find the last contract commitment he needs to remove those restrictions.

Dang. For 6k there should be no restrictions. That’s cool being able to screen AA movies. A great perk.

my husband is a carpenter- so we never pay for labor, he gets tons of freebies from the jobsites and we have lots of helpers at hand when we DO need them.

We kinda share the role, he “takes care of and watches over me”….I do everything else particularly when it comes to Holidays, Births, Deaths, and Traditions in the family….or and yes Tax Returns and dealing with correspondence and FORMS! Gawd, I HATE Forms. ~~dru~~
