[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the birthday person in my office. Would you be okay with some kind of private recognition, such as an e-giftcard? [/quote] No. Don't want it. I [b]know some ppl are naturally generous and don't expect anything in return,[/b] but for the vast majority, we feel the moral obligation to reciprocate, and you giving gifts where none was expected just creates more work.[/quote] No - true generosity, is doing what someone else requests, not what you want to do. They expect something - whether it is to be thought of as considerate or generous by others or by themselves. There is some sort of issue there and they would do well to figuring it out rather than hounding others for PII.[/quote] PP here - and I DO share my birthday with the office. I don’t mind at all but it really bothers me when others are harassed after they have made their feelings known.[/quote]
