Leaving gift

[SimonMac]

Are ye feckin' Oirish or summat?

Erm, Yes I am

[SimonMac]

I like that, nice touch.

Although on big job which I worked with Eek on they gave me a bottle as a leaving gift!

Krispie Kreme doughnuts for the plebs, bottle of Whiskey for the Programme Manager

Which he puts in his drawer and just as you leave you put a call in to site security about a member of staff having alcohol on site. Walk to your car whistling as the security scream past responding to a call they just had..

Like your style.

With something in it?

[EternalOptimist]

I always put all the stuff I have nicked back in the stationary cupboard. The look on the secretaries face when she realises she doesn't have to reorder for at least three months is the best gift I could give anyone.

excepts Sam in accounts. I'd give her one

18 year old single malt scotch, better than nothing I guess

[SlipTheJab]

I buy chocolates. Then inject laxative into them.

And then eat them your self

So do you guys give a thank you gift on the last day of your contract?

Rather than buy a whole load of treats on the last day, I have found it much more effective to bring stuff in on a regular basis (weekly, biweekly, monthly, whatever...) for the project team. More people will notice when you're gone.

Cool stuff, thanks for the advice - I shall buy two kit-kats, as there are 8 people on the team. That should be sufficient.

Half a finger each, since they'll be 2 finger ones, appropriate as that's also what the company will get as I walk out of the door backwards, stopping only to wee into the ornamental fountain.

I'll just get them a box of krispy kreme

Not the big box, I hope....
