    I like the guillotine option:D. Also bonuses for completion of specific tasks and I would say something about job security of some sort would also go a long way

    Motivational posters only work for people completely lacking any sense of irony (Read: Yanks).

    Practical things like a good coffee machine, smoking shelter or a meal out every so often are much more likely to encourage the typical Irish worker.
