No I've never bought for any of my colleagues, I get on with them mostly but they're not the kind of people I'd associate myself with outside of work or spend my money on. :laugh:

I think its ridiculous and just a reaction to marketing and advertising. It in fact cheapens Christmas and dilutes it. Christmas is for family not for work colleagues

I think that's rubbish tbh some people would class thier friends as part of thier family and sometimes gifts from work are to show the people that give them appreciate what you do for them throughout the year.

For the last couple of years my boss bought us all a tub of sweets and a bottle of wine, but I don't really ever eat/drink either so I don't care that she didn't this year as I just had to find someone to give them to. :idc:

We don't tend to get presents for each other. We usually get something for one of the managers since she always gets presents for everyone.

But what you do for them throughout the year is surely what you receive your wages for? :smug:
