Today is the day to make a killing.
Every year for Christmas my boss sends me a box of delicious oranges (if you're reading this, Linda, please just make it all oranges--I don't like grapefruits) with a card that reads "Have a fruitful New Year." If you're stymied on what to get your employees this year, may I make the following recommendations along with accompanying cards
Best Employee Gifts
Cashmere wrap: "Warmest wishes"
Cheese basket: "I ain't being cheesy: it's great working with you!"
Knife set: "Your work is cutting edge!"
Starbucks mug: "You perk up the office!"
Massage certicate: "Hope this year has a happy ending!"
Gift certificate: "Please use this to purchase something you enjoy that is particular to your unique personality, whatever that may be."
Mail order Christmas tree: "Happy Hannukkah!"
Case of wine: "Have a boozy year, you drunk"
