Nope. Get it when you can, where you can. Get it from whom you can and the easy ones twice. LOL. Keep it with one person.

It would be easier if you told us what your job is, but in any places I have worked an employee is not expected to give the boss a Christmas present.  Possibly a card and some homemade cookies would be appropriate?

It's more important what the gift is as opposed to how much you spend.  For example, homemade cookies or a book on a topic you know is of particular interest to the person would be more personal (as opposed to $ value).

I'm here in Taji right now and I can honestly tell you it doesnt matter, send anything that come to mind, receiving anything in the mail is the perfect gift, just to know someone is thinking about you and cares. To go with your follow up, its always awesome for you to send extras of whatever or at least two, because typically you live two to a room over here, and you dont know if that person is gonna receieve anything or not. Much better to brighten two soldiers day instead of one........sidenote- if your friends a smoker, cigarettes are always the best gift one could ask for,....wait no, a smuggling of alcohol is even better, Listerine bottles filled with Crown Royal work wonderfully.

got my husband a Dallas Cowboys jacket and some cds and dvds he wanted. I don't re-gift per se - I keep them a while and pass them to someone who might use it, but not as a gift, just as a, 'here, you might like this' kind of thing.\n\nDid your sister do that on purpose? That's kind of mean, if so!

I don't think you NEED to get your boss a gift but if you'd like to, stick to something not too personal and not too expensive.  Don't want the boss to think you're kissing up.  A holiday plant, candy, a book, cookies, or desk stress relievers for that boss that's too uptight!

You must either thank this person, and accept the olive branch they've extended, or return the gift to them... You may not decently keep the gift and continue to reject the giver.

Well i think i would take it and keep it for a while without spending anything from it. If there would be an announcement of anyone losing it i would turn it in to the police of course. \nIf not i will give it all away as donations to childrens homes, for organisations for people fatal diseases, for poor people and so on. Use it all to charity. I think that would be the most fair and moral thing to do because faith brought it in my away and gave me have the chance to do something good , a difference in the world as opposed to spend it all for my pleasues because considering i wouldnt have found it i would have still survived so the best thing is to use it for doing something great and more important then myself.\n\nPS: In my city like an year ago or so something similar happened, a person founded in a bus a suitcase full with alot of money. It turned out that it was of an old man who just sold his house and the whole money were the value of his house and all that the person had. It had a happy ending cuz it was returned to him.

Depending on the occasion and your relationship with the executive, you might want to keep it less personal, to avoid causing any uncomfortable feelings on her part.  A fruit basket, or some sort of generic (but tasteful) gift basket would be good if you want to make a gift but you're not well acquainted.  If you are on a more friendly basis, you have more options.  Here are a few links to give you some ideas, ranging from "most appropriate" to "least appropriate."  Use your best judgement and err on the side of professionalism if you're in doubt :)

If thats what she wants. If she wants  and likes expensive gifts then yes......if she likes something else like just spending time then you should do something like that. Its not the gift that matters but the thought.

If I was you I would go for it.  Put it this way it might help your position in the company.  Things could not be better for you.  Do you realize how many people wish this would hapen to them.  I would not worry about it and have some fun. good luck

donate it somewhere and get a tax write-off for it, plus know you are doing something good.  use the tax write-off towards a new PDA

Honestly, I don't care what the gift is.  As long as it's a meaningful expression of how she feels about me (price and description are really immaterial), personally, I would love it no matter what it is and she wouldn't have to worry about "getting me the wrong thing" or "not getting something good enough".

It's no ones business but yours.  As far as a gift goes, why not take them out for a night at the movies at your expense?

I think that is a really nice idea - besides, that way you know that the person/people receiving it are needy. And you can witness their joy from afar when you know who recieved the gift. What a thoughtful gift.
