Christmas Gifts for Multiple People

Post by Anonymous User » Wed Dec 23, 2015 12:51 pm

Conventional wisdom seems to be to spend $50 per stub year, but would this figure be combined or separate if you didn't have a set secretary, and instead rely on 2 different secretaries who share a work space? Also what is an appropriate gift? I prefer giving gifts to cash because (1) you don't have to spend as much and (2) the recipient is likelier to remember the gift if it's something they use than if its cash which is indistinguishable from other cash.

My brother and sis are attorneys and they each buy a few cases of wine/liquor for gifts. What is leftover…… will let you figure that out!

yeah when it comes to gifts that you pick out for people that you don't actually know well, in the $50 range, you're sorta stuck with booze.

Not really professional but what would you tip a doormen if your building has 3 shifts? You tip all 3 right? I'm the OP anon, and wound up going with cash because I got busy.
