Yes, especially if you’re self employed!



Must I buy my boss a pricey holiday gift?

Giving gifts at the office can be stressful. Here's what works well - and what not to do.

While we're talking Holiday Gifts, here are some interesting ideas (hint hint) here or here.

Wouldn't you like a gift that keeps on giving? Or like putting the batteries in the Energizer Bunny backwards. *wicked grin*

How about something from the Wilder West? or if you're feeling somewhat more Devilish then you can try that. But the ultimate prize gift is waiting for those who can go the distance.

See, this is why we don’t let you guys go shopping.

I suppose you'd rather have diamonds or that BMW Z4 Roadster that Doc compared you to since your Corvette days are behind you instead?

That's why you don't take us shopping because we'd rather choose something more reasonable?

Ack!

Well I suppose the stripper pole for the bedroom is out of the question.

Pleeeease don’t force me to make pole jokes! And why do you guys get us stuff that YOU want? Like lingerie? You guys are such tards sometimes, but you’re still the best game in town!

Hmmmm, let’s see…diamonds, sports cars, or t-shirts with snarky sayings on them….hmmm, I just don’t know….hard decision…..ummm…..

But which could you afford and reasonably expect to get eh? Diamonds don't grow on trees and unless you're superman harder to come by, just like sports cars are. Kinda narrows a guys choices doesn't it?

Is that any different than what gals give us stuff that you want? Like these Slipper Socks or this Clock

There were other stuff on those pages I showed besides lingerie, and as for "snarky" sayings given your predilection I would've been all in favor of that *wink*

Have achieved old fartdom, Cookie and I now buy our own gifts. The only caveat is that the "giver" has to wrap the gifts. He treated me to quite a lot of jewelry for Christmas this year.

Pole jokes??? You??? Aha!!! I knew it!!! You'll have to fill us in on the backstory. Is it true that some guys actually wrap $100 around a wad of $1s?

Hehehe


As far that goes, we men aren't completely clueless. Last year, my girlfiend at the time, got to pick her weekend vacation and this is where we went complete with a full day of spa treatments of her choice.
