Punishingly Intricate
I was just asked to contribute to a gift for the Big Boss. Seriously, y'all??
T-acky!
I had cake for breakfast. It was delicious but now I am crashing hard.

It's her birthday! And not even a big round one.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
My big boss gets extremely uncomfy if I give him anything, even if it's something I got for free or cheap, like books for his kid at the Book Expo (free!).
For his birthday last year I gave him an issue of Popular Science from the month/year he was born. I got it for a dollar at the flea market, which i had to tell him because he was so uncomfy taking it even though he clearly loved it and wanted to put it in a shadow box frame.
I think it's odd. I mean, it was a bday gift! I've been working for him for 7 years! It was a DOLLAR!

I gave my boss gum for Christmas. He gave me nothing. I'm ok with that. I mean it's gum and it was my choice. being asked to contrinute is just no way in hell.

Being asked is totally different, agreed.
I stopped collecting for baby gifts at JPL because it really did seem to make a lot of people uncomfy.

That's awesome. And for a dollar, even better!

We usually chip in to buy our big bosses a Christmas present each year, but my feeling is that everyone who works here likes them. (I'm related, so of course I don't have a problem with it.) Also, they tend to take us out to really nice dinners when everyone's in town for meetings when they could just send all the local staff home at the end of the workday to fend for themselves, so it's not like the flow of giving is all one way.

I like her, but I still feel ooky about it.
