Do you give colleagues at work holiday card?

[Anonymous]

Do you give your personal holiday card to work colleagues? The holiday card in this case has pictures of my family that a printed holiday message and that is signed Love, Dale, Darleen, Darla & Darlo) to your friends at work? What about former supervisors whom you are friendly with?

I am Darleen in this case and I work in a federal office.

Yes, but I just include them in my mailing along with other friends and family.

I do not. Sometimes people with a new baby will do so, especially if they received gifts from the office.

Some of my co-workers do non-picture Christmas cards with just their name signed ... I think that's kind of odd and wasteful, since I see them every day.

If you are in correspondence with a former colleague or supervisor, like if you would see them for coffee or send a personal email, that's more in the column of friend and would get a card.

Sometimes I handwrite a non photo card (usually to my bosses).

I know some people well enough that I give the picture card with Love, The XYZ Family

Thanks. That's a good rule of thumb. And I agree re generic cards that are just signed.
