This is the last holiday gift I bought this year, and one of the first I gave. It's a lightly-scented spray moisturizer for my boss. I explained in the card that it was make sure he had a comfortable new year, no matter how itchy his sweaters are. I chose this for him because he is forever rubbing his back in my doorway to scratch that unreachable itchy spot on his back.
When he stopped by to give me farewell instructions before heading out for the year, he didn't mention the card or the gift. I asked him if he opened it and said, yes, and that now all he has to do is worry about is his jock itch.
So, did my gift offend him? Was he embarrassed that he didn't have anything for me and now, between his vacation and mine, he won't see me until the New Year? Or is he just a putz?
He is just a putz lol.
ReplyDeleteI'd say 'yes' on both counts... he's offended and he's a putz. Good thing is he now has until next year to get over it.
ReplyDeleteDon't waste another minute worrying about it. Your gift was thoughtful, and I'm sure his wife will appreciate it when he gives it to her.
I'm voting with Carol.
