What are the top 10 holiday gifts for the office?
Here is a list:
- Calendars
- Fruitcakes
- Pen sets
- Paper weights
- Desk fans
- Mini-radios
- Coffee mugs
- Desk lamps
- Mini-clocks
- Scented candles
Obviously, this is not a complete list of all the gifts you could give during the holidays. Some of these gift items can remain at work while others are more appropriate to take home. Either way, these are all safe gifts that could prove to be very much appreciated by those in the office.
If you are not taking part in a formal Pollyanna system, you still need to do some coordinating with the members of the office staff. You do not want to see duplicate gifts being given out among other similar problems. Again, a little workplace communications can go a long way in this regard.
The Do's and Don't's of Workplace Giving
The concept of workplace giving has been around for some time, though many tend to forget what it means. Also consider the etiquette of workplace givingYes, we've all seen News Radio, and we cannot all give cars as office gifts, but what we can do is make sure everyone gets something that they like to a point. That said, let's discuss a few notes regarding workplace giving and what you can do to keep the peace while you are in the spirit of giving.
Do
- Give your coworker something that they can use, and something functional.
- Make sure it is generic looking and reusable.
- Set a price point for yourself and make sure you're following the same pricing limits as everyone else.
- If you are given a gift you do not like follow these tips.
- What to do when you are given a gift you really don't like
Five most
Don't
- Give gifts that are too expensive, or gifts that make it look as if you are playing favorites.
- Give gifts that might be considered offensive, for example it would be a generally bad idea to give religious texts or politically aligned literature unless you know for sure the person would appreciate it.
- Give gifts that are suited specifically for adults, this is unacceptable.
- Give embarrassing gifts to give a colleague
There are other guidelines to be aware of, of course, but these are the most common mistakes made in the workplace. Remember that many rules are common sense, for instance not purchasing lingerie for your co-workers. Bear these things in mind, and your gift giving experience should be quite decent! That being said, it's time to get into the spirit of giving.
