Just like workplace fashion, holiday gifts for coworkers vary widely across industries, companies, and individuals. In some offices, it's super weird to get your colleagues holiday gifts. In others, it's super weird if you don't. While I can't say where your workplace might fall on the spectrum, I can help offer up the above ideas for those of you who fall in the latter of the two categories.
It's always tough to decide what to get a boss versus a peer, so be sure to take stock of your relationship with each individual and think about what's appropriate to give them. You probably want to steer clear of accidentally spurring any kind of Love Actually-style situation by giving a gift that could be misinterpreted by either the recipient or other on-lookers. So whether it's a "please don't screw me during year-end reviews" gift for a boss, an "I wish you would stop smacking your gum and start wearing deodorant" gift for a less than likable coworker, or a "thanks for saving me from the handsy guy in accounting at last year's holiday party" gift for a great friend at work, there's something for just about everyone. If you have any good gift ideas for coworkers that I've missed, please share in the comments below!
