The Nightmare Before Christmas

 

This Christmas classic directed by Tim Burton is a dark fairy tale that will impress young and old audience alike. The story of Jack Skellington and Sally unravels in Christmas Town, and after many adventures and some pretty amazing songs, the happy ending comes to please everyone. Keep in mind that very young children might find some of the characters scary. After all, Jack is at some point singing “There’s children throwing snowballs / instead of throwing heads / they’re busy building toys / and absolutely no one’s dead!”. Still an amazing movie, filled with love and friendship. [Read more…]

If you are tired of looking for the politically correct thing to offer each and every time, the time has come for you to start a revolution! Read through our list of top gifts for coworkers that are inappropriate and let’s see how long before you get fired! Note: We are just kidding.

Alright, now that we made it clear, let’s see what will make people smile.

Unmotivational Posters

You know those motivational posters that can be found in any place of torture, like your work space, hospitals, the dentist or exam centers? Most of the times they just cause more frustration, instead of bringing comfort or motivation into our poor souls. Unmotivational posters, on the other hand, are brutally honest. [Read more…]

Easy Holiday Treats: Sweet Gifts for Coworkers

Christmas season is around the corner and it’s time to start thinking about easy holiday treats for coworkers. Forget fruitcake! Easy holiday treats for coworkers come in such a great variety, that it is a shame to stick to the old habits. If you are looking for gift ideas for coworkers that are still edible and sweet, but want to go for something different this year, then our list of choices is going to be a lifesaver. We just hope you are not on a diet!

Dried Fruits and Nuts

Usually fruit cakes are loaded with dried fruits and nuts plus tons of sugar, flour and eggs to make the cake. Easy holiday treats do not have to have unhealthy ingredient.  Why not offer healthy fruits and nuts as a gift in a nice basket? Plus, it is much easier to combine pistachio with scotch, than a piece of cake. Right? Right. What’s more, you can just choose the fruits that the coworker likes and have no waste (you know what we are talking about: everyone eats the almonds and the cranberries and the raisins are left alone in the bowl at the end of the night).

Cheap Watches As Gifts for Coworkers

You know what they say: time is money. And since offering money as gifts for coworkers can be quite inappropriate, you can offer them time! A watch is a great gift for a special occasion, like a promotion, a coworker changing department within the company or even as a birthday gift. You don’t have to go bankrupt to get a cute watch for your colleague either. If you are looking for cheap watches as gifts for coworkers, take a look at our picks. You will surely find something to fit your coworker’s taste and personality.

For the coworker who loves pencil skirts, pearl earrings and silk shirts, you should choose an equally elegant watch. This Anne Klein model has a genuine leather soft pink strap and a rosegold-tone case. The dial is made of mother of pearl and the numbers are roman and with a matching rosegold-tone finishing. Such a watch is easy to wear every day with all sorts of neutral tones, like gray, taupe, aubergine or pistachio greens. Your coworker will love it and appreciate your taste as well.

For the young colleague

People in their twenties prefer casual watches, that they can wear with all types of clothing, in all sorts of activities. So, if you are looking for a gift for coworkers who are in their twenties -like that exceptional intern, who finally got hired- choosing a modern, casual watch is a great idea. We like this one from Timex. It’s simple design makes it both office-appropriate and suited for a party night out as well. The case is round and the numbers simple, both in 12 and 24-hour mode. The second hand is red; a happy touch. The nylon band comes in many colors, from neutral ones, like olive green, to bolder combinations, like the orange-gray combination. [Read more…]
