員工所收到的最差以及最不可思議的禮物

人們在假日季也有著不小的壓力，尤其是為禮單上的所有人選擇合適的禮物會讓人感到頭疼不已。（我們可以為您支招。）

然而，為職場人士選擇禮物是一件更有挑戰性的事情，送禮的對象可能是關系不錯的同事（對比偶爾見到的同事），或者有時候連你自己也不知道是否應該給同事或客戶送禮。

因此，一些問題是在所難免的。畢竟，可堪稱經典的一集《The Office》所講述的神秘圣誕老人禮物交換便在一定程度上源于當今的現實。

如果你想了解不應該送哪些禮物，員工獎勵計劃Snappy匯集了雇員們稱同事贈送的最差和最不可思議（更不用說最奢侈的）的禮物。其中一些禮物之所以會被送給接收者，其原因我們基本上還是可以理解的。（加油站紅酒顯然是去……路上最后時刻的選擇，不是嗎？）還有一些禮物真的是讓人眼前一亮，或者實在是乏善可陳。

禮物往往都會給人留下持久的印象，而且這些禮物也必然如此。Snappy發現，近半數雇員（44%）覺得收到的禮物反映了他們在職場的價值。此外，遠超半數（68%）的雇員表示，他們寧愿自己選擇禮品，而不是由其雇主代勞。

還有，人們不一定非得（甚至是不合適）送禮物。有五分之四（81%）的雇員表示，主管的一張個性化表揚便條就會讓他們更加賣力。然而，60%的雇員承認，他們在收到企業禮物之后從來沒有給公司寫過感謝函。

Snappy的發現基于SurveyMonkey提供的數據。調查于2018年11月開展，涵蓋1019名受調者，他們代表了美國18歲及以上的男士和女士。（財富中文網）

The holidays are stressful, driven especially by that need to get the right gift for everyone on your list. (We can help with that.)

What can be even more challenging is getting a gift for someone in a professional setting, whether it be a co-worker with whom you’re close (versus someone you interact with once in awhile) or if it’s a situation where it’s questionable to even bestow a gift upon a colleague or client.

Thus, some problems are bound to arise. After all, the Secret Santa exchange depicted in this classic episode of The Office is somewhat rooted in reality.

In case you’re looking for what NOT to give, Snappy, an employee rewards program, has tallied the worst and most outrageous (not to mention, extravagant) gifts that employees say they have received from their co-workers. Some of these items almost seem understandable in how they ended up in the hands of the recipient. (Gas station wine was clearly a last minute option on the way over…right?) And then others, well, are truly inspired, or rather, uninspired presents.

25 Worst Corporate Gifts Employees Say They Have Actually Received

1. Puka shell necklace

2. Potato

3. Stale candy in a used mug

4. Mason jar lid

5. A plastic, landline wall phone

6. Gas station wine

7. Foot lotion

9. Lottery tickets

10. Squatty Potty

11. Shampoo

Gifts always have the chance to make lasting impressions—and these certainly have. Snappy found that nearly half of employees (44%) feel that their value at their workplaces is reflected in the gifts received. Furthermore, well more than half (68%) of employees said they would rather choose their own gift than have their employer choose for them.

Then again, maybe a gift isn’t necessary (or even appropriate). Four out of five workers (81%) said that a personalized note of recognition from a supervisor actually strengthened their commitment to a company. However, 60% of employees admitted they never sent a thank you note for a corporate gift.

Snappy’s findings are based on data provided by SurveyMonkey. Conducted in November 2018, 1,019 respondents participated in this survey, representative of men and women ages 18 and older in the United States.
