They took us out to lunch at Macaroni Grill, and made us take vacation time to go.

My wife used to get a Visa Gift Card. She'd usually take it and buy me something that I wanted. We have a joint checking account and it was her way of me not knowing how much she spent on me.

Re: Employer Christmas Gifts
Nothing.
They already took away our Holiday party a couple years ago to save money, we don't get any bonuses or gifts and if we're lucky the boss might take us out after work and buy apetizers at the bar or something. One year I guess we got this "gift" which was the paper box thing you had to put together and inside the lid it said "our most valuable asset - YOU!" Talk about one of the dumbest things ever, it wasn't even worth what they probably paid to make and send those things out. Save that money and send me the check for it, even if it's $2. At least I can get a pop with that...

I called yours and told them to give you all "punches in the face".

Mine doesnt give out anything. They gave us a turkey for thanksgiving, but it was probably free from some client.

The company my dad works for does this. Every employee gets a turkey. Actually, they get a certificate to take to Fareway to get a turkey. There have been a few years where the turkeys have been gone. Ooops.
