Did anyone do the annual “What are you buying your employees for Christmas” thread yet?

Trying to find something for my direct reports - 6 people, both male and female all different ages.
They work their tails off for me, but I’m alsoplanning on taking them out to dinner (we’re a fun team, they like getting together and busting balls since they all work in different locations - I’m not forcing them in to it). Dinner will run me about $300-$350 already, so not looking to spend a ton on gifts because this is out of pocket for me - but I’d like to get them each something.
What are you folks getting your employees for Christmas this year?
(INB4: “just give them money or a gift card”)

One of my personal assistants is sending them all gift cards, fruitcakes, and the most delectable holiday popcorn on Earth!

Post pics of the females and I’ll let you know about them.
The males? Give them money or a Gift Card to whatever....

Six pack of beer, and a day off. Or, one extra day pay if they don’t want the time off.

Jelly of the month club. The gift that keeps on giving.

Who approved your OT posting privileges with only 6 direct reports?
RA’d for chicken to look into

:eyeroll:
Who doesn’t know the difference between direct and indirect reports?
Who wants more than 6 directs? Gotta add layers to separate yourself from the proletariat.

What restaurant are you taking them where 7 adults can have a celebratory dinner for $300?

It’s NJ - pretty much everywhere is BYOB up here. Liquor licenses are limited by the population of each town and therefore very difficult for non-chains to afford.

For the females (20+) my wife got them coffee tumblers with their initials on them, with some lip balm and bath products.
For the males (3) we just got $20 amazon gift cards.
I will be giving them their gifts at a office Christmas party I am paying for.

Can’t pump your own gas and have to bring your own booze to the reataurant. New Jersey sounds worse and worse the more I learn.

I’m so confused. Those are two of the BEST things about NJ.
I just told you I can take 7 people to dinner for $300 bucks + bring my own liquor instead of paying restaurant markup AND I don’t have to get out of my car when it’s freezing out or in the middle of summer.
These are *good* things.

Sorry my light hearted joke downplayed the importance of your job in your “look at me, I’m important” thread

I thought the proletariat comment would have tipped off my sarcasm too

Hand up: I stopped reading after “who wants more than 6 direct reports” carry on
