Hi Guys, this is my first holiday season as a boss and I am trying to figure out how to handle it, hoping a quick poll might help. For the gift choices, assume they're all worth about the same amount (and none of them huge).

Thanks!

Thanks! That makes a lot of sense. We don't really have a break, so I can pick a day or do it around our holiday party.

Glad it helps.

Forgot to mention, I did give my assistant a present when I had one. But it was very informal. And I told him he didn't need to get me one. It was something small. I tried to find things that worked but I confess that at least once it was the ubiquitous candle. *groan*

Heh. Boy do I know from ubiquitous candles. :)

I was considering these:

with our pub's call number on them, but considering the consensus here I think I will go less cutesy and more useful with a gift card.

Those are really fun. And I can see that being great at your company. I am a bit torn now. *smile* It is an awesome idea. And I love Etsy stuff.

I found a possible compromise, some Etsy Christmas cards with a similar theme that I could put the more functional gift card inside.
