Perhaps some program where they give you a some coupon or some such for the cab company for x number of non-car days?
Most of my non day off errands are done on the way home from work. A haircut wouldn't be one of them since I would be well drenched before I got to my barber so I do that on the weekend.
I guess it is good there is nothing near my work where I want to or need to go. If I need to do an appointment of some kind I take time off and work a half day or not at all. Things come up that need to be handled during the week that is what personal days were given to us by the company I work for. While many people are able to take off an hour early or take a long lunch and such and save their personal days to extend their vacation time that wasn't he intention, and for those who can't take off an hour early or take a long lunch it amount to workplace issues.
That probably isn't going to help you with the question though. I am at the point where I have a real problem using any special accomidations because I ride my bike but it may be because in my job I"m just a bitter hr person which deals with people abusing accomidatations or complaining about others that get preferential treatment and other ethical violations so I'm in the no one gets anything zone.
