The gifts were specially picked for each of them, based on what i think may be useful for them. Out of the four, i was not sure of what the new guy likes and hence i could only get a safe (but may not be useful) gift - two coffee/tea mugs (for him and his wife).
Someone told me that gifts such as mugs and photo frame are corny, but then when you really do not know what to get, that's probably the safest (yet lacks creativity). At least there is still a possibility that the person who receives the gift may use it one day.
Anyway, it is the thought that counts. Hope they will appreciate the thoughts even if they do not like the gifts. I will also distribute the chocolates to the other colleagues in the department tomorrow.
Can't wait to play Santa Clause tomorrow.
