In the past I've been the recipient of “employee appreciation” like a pizza or a pack of Skittles, but the university I work for just announced something a little more like appreciation. For five weeks this summer, every benefits-eligible employee can make Friday a half-day. They're also encouraging meeting-free Fridays, and telling managers not to send emails, texts, etc. after hours unless it's an emergency.
