Recommended Posts

So if you were just doing your job and assisting a customer, and the customer comes back and offers you a trip to Hawaii as a thank you - do you take it!?

You pass it along to one of your less fortunate pals so that he and his wife can get away for a while. That's what I would do...now if we can only think of a deserving candidate.....hmmmmmmm.......still thinking.............who could possibly fit the bill??

What does your corporate policy say about it? Where I work, we have very clearly defined rules about what we can and cannot accept.

Even in the absence of those rules, I'd err on the side of not accepting a gift of that value.

Nah, this group isn't like that... I've been working with them for about 5 years, and they are good people.

edit to add: they have an office in Hawaii - so it would be mixed with biz.

1) Check the books.
2) Check with HR.
3) Check with an accountant, you may have to pay taxes on this kind of gift.
4) Check to see if you own the right king of clothing for such an adventure.
I suggest...

5) Can you tan? I mean really? Can you?
and 6) Is she cute? :)

Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

The only thing that falls from the sky is birdshit and fools!

Make sure that there are 'No Strings' attached and then go for it.



lol I politely declined... in all honesty I think she wants to hire me to run her office in Honolulu. :ph34r: We have talked about it before. ;) She travels there every 3 weeks and she recently had a scare with ovarian cancer and wants to limit her travel time so she is seriously looking to hire someone.

DUDE do you know how freaking expensive it is to live in HI! ACK Not to mention I've lived on an island before, and if I'm going to live on an island again it's going to be New Zealand. :ph34r:
