[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think you really need to give anything - maybe a box of chocolates or a mug set or something.  [/quote]

Nobody wants a box of chocolates or a mug set - the chocolates would be regifted to the copy room guys within half a day. We're all "set' with how many mugs we need. Nobody in the US needs any more mugs. [/quote]

Eh.  I think the mug set would be appropriate if it’s holiday themed.  It’s thoughtful and nice for the holidays.  The secretary would use it. [/quote]

Absolutely not.

$500 is the minimum in my mind. Support staff do a ton of extra work, including nights and weekends, without the large salaries. If you find a good one, treat them right and do everything possible to keep them on your team.[/quote]

Playing devils advocate, yes they deserve a nice big cash bonus, but that should come from the firm. I already pay my firm over 50% of collections to cover bloated overhead etc. support staff should be more than covered. The money should generously flow from the top of the pyramid.  The partners who are making over $2m should pool together a lot of money for the support staff on behalf of the firm. [/quote]
