Wrap gift for myself?

ariwheeler · 12-19-2008 , 06:08 PM

As the Executive Assistant to the President/CEO, my boss has asked me to purchase gifts for all the staff members for the holidays. Everyone is getting the same thing and I am wrapping the gifts and stuffing the cards. My boss is having me address all the envelopes so he can personalize each card. Do I wrap a gift for myself and give him a card to sign for me or do I leave myself out?

I would wrap it. You deserve a signed card and wrapped gift just like everyone else. I know it probably feels awkward wrapping your own gift, but just look at that you are wrapping the company gifts. If you do leave yours out, your boss may ask where it is.

Definetly wrap it - it's the Holidays! Your boss may have something extra she or he wants to put in your card.
