I tried something this week. Everyone who came into my office (staff, I mean) got a present. They were things that didn’t cost me a lot, but they were lumped together in a box. When the person came in I made an off-hand comment like, “I bought some of these on the weekend for a party and these are the ones left over, so take a few if you like.”
No, it’s not a bribe. I think it’s a way of giving a gift to someone without the awkwardness of giving a gift away from a formal occasion i.e. a birthday.
In any case, the reaction was supremely satisfying – it brightened the day of many.
