There are only 7 people at my office

Buying something personal for your bosses is really good. Getting your bosses something generic is better than not getting them anything at all, but is still :gotme:

I intend on getting my one boss a vo2 test at UB, as he is a marathon runner and I know he is dying to have his vo2 levels tested.

Thinkgeek is also very fun.

Red swingline staplers for everyone!

I’m not sure if we’re even allowed to say happy holidays here. Last year we had a non-denominational holiday party. Fair enough. Lotsa people from lotsa backgrounds around here. This year we are having a “Celebrate the New Year” part in the middle of January. Yay.

lmao… its not that, it is just a total waste for everyone since no one gets thoughtful gifts. People don’t really know the people they work with so they never get anything good.

The only people that have worthwhile gift exchanges are people with their secretaries because they know their entire life for the most part.
