>friends want to go out to eat on the christmas fair >muh gifts for them all >now resident cheerful coworker has decided to give gifts to every single one at the office and put me as the intern with lowest income in an akward position
I am not cheap but do I really need to spend my entire months paycheck on fucking gifts? For fucks sake, just be happy with a simple "Merry Christmas" you get from me and be on your merry way home after work. Thankfully there is no such a thing like a company banquet where you would certainly be obliged to "pitch in".
Reminds me of my internship at a big company too. I just didn't do it, nobody said anything. I guess some talked behind my back though.
Brody Miller
Just don't do it? I seriously doubt any of them have the fucking balls to confront you.
John Rodriguez
Just get inventive, user. Here's what you do. They will think you are so sweet.
Go to the nearest economy/dollar/discount store type place. Buy the necessary amount of cute little gift bags, big enough to hold maybe 4 tasty average sized cookies. Also buy a roll of foil or wax paper and a bit of decorative tissue and ribbon, and maybe some tiny gift cards if you want to personalize each bag. (Some gift bags come with tiny tags attached.)
Then look up the recipe for classic toll house cookies (chocolate chip cookies) or your favorite equally easy holiday cookie that you know how to make or can learn easily, maybe with the help of your mom/grandma/etc. Buy the ingredients, enough to make the right number of cookies (about four times each employee you plan to gift, plus extras to nom on, over bake by accident and/or give to your mom/grandma/etc.) You can innovate a little and add a couple of pinches of cinnamon and nutmeg to the classic recipe, or maybe put half dark chocolate chips and half milk chocolate chips. Little touches like that go a long way. Tell your coworkers you make them just like your granny used to do.
By now you might have spent $25. Tops.
Bake the cookies. Try to make them all about the same size. After they cool, put four wrapped neatly in wax paper or foil and tied with a ribbon in each bag. Crumple a bit of decorative tissue on top and tuck it in. Write the employees' names on the gift tags and attach if they're not already attached. Get all the little baggies together in a box and take to work.
They'll adore you. This might even help get you a promotion.

DONT DO THAT ITS A TRAP YOUR LIFE WILL BE RUINED
Ayden Thomas
This is a good idea, but you are grossly underestimating the cost. The bags, especially now, will easily cost 4-6x the cookies in them.
Still, It is probably the best route if he intends to participate.

Do NOT do this! it creates mustard gas
John Adams
Since when did cookies make mustard gas ?
Alexander Adams
I’ll probably do that in the future. I’m a woodworker by hobby and I made a wonderful bowl intended to hold a flower pot with my own bare hands for a secret Santa thing last year. Just bought a nice block of wood within the budget range and spent time doing what I would have been doing anyways.
Really got an awkward reaction from the crowd. Seemed like the energy got sucked out of the room and a couple wierd looks. The recipient was grateful at least. I don’t know if they thought I broke budget or just tried too hard or what, but it didn’t go how I thought it would.
Parker Long
Tell them you think Santa Is a social construct and perpetuating the white male status Quo for the world so you choose not to participate
These sound like fucking shit cookies. Get a real cookie recipe, user.
Lucas Johnson
Hand make cards they'll see youre bothered and not cheap its personal but at the same time its cheaper then grabbing presents.

I’d rather eat my own dick than bake cookies without butter. Peanut butter isn’t butter. Also most peanut butter cookies almost always use both brown and white sugar.
These will also likely be hard and brittle without a leavening agent.
Kill yourself and never bake again.
Ethan Long
Oh yeah, and a pinch of salt depending on how much is already in your peanut butter.
Matthew Ortiz
Srsly tho just give everyone a few boiled eggs it will be just fine

Weakest Jow Forums prank ever. Pretty sure it was just written and saved by a retard. I mean, who would save that unless they thought it was a real recipe?
Lucas Ross
Just send them your mixtape
Aiden Murphy
i gave everyone pineapples with bows on them once. havn`t had to by gifts for years.

I would not even go make up some BS reason/ Your Aunts goldfish is having hot flashes or something. Let the Cuck blow his money. You earn respect and most people are not worth looking at much less spending money on. If you do go just Lie I spent my xtra money on blankets for children on the border.
>this was a thread on /CS/ >people fell for it The absolute state of that board. I’ve literally never baked cookies and I knew better.
BUTTER BELONGS IN/ON EVERYTHING

Its simple annon just go to a grocery store and buy some holiday candy boxes. I got 10 boxes of chocolates buy one get one free for 50 bucks then when to powerpoint and designed a gift tag with different backgrounds.
The true trick to gift giving is to strike first and strike with the stomach. Dont wait until last minute to give a gift as if you give a gift after something expensive your gift will look like shit.
Adam Walker
no flour, no butter, no baking powder, no honey
not specifying that only niggers use crunchy peanut butter and you want to use all natural creamy peanutbutter
... i dont think this would work that well it seems lacking
Owen Evans
While this is a helpful idea in intention and I know this user means well, if you don't want to have to do this every year as long as you keep the same job, don't do this, OP.
Jeah, normies are addicted to every little bit of attention they get, even if they go broke for it. If you really feel the urge to do something, just drop off a bowl of sweets somewhere and tell some people they are from you. Make sure they are "high quality"/brand sweets.Did the same as an intern back then. Be prepared for normie roastie backlash though, they hate competition.
Connor Anderson
Just say you are Muslim and watch them feel uncomfortable.
You should do what one of my cheap ass coworkers did. She gave each of us a little card saying that she anonymously donated money on our behalf to the homeless nigger who begs outside of our shop every day "in the spirit of giving." I have to admire her passive-aggressive brilliance- basically telling her coworkers that she'd rather give money to a bum than spend a penny on any of us, but done in a way that we can't really call her out on it
Liam Scott
That's lovely. Now post a picture of your gash for Christmas' sake.
