Choosing a gift is a rather troublesome task, but giving gifts is even more difficult. There are certain rules of etiquette, according to which the present you have chosen may not be very appropriate for a particular occasion or celebration. How to choose and give gifts correctly?
If you are going to a wedding or wedding anniversary, then the gift should please both the man and the woman, and should be appropriate for their age.
If you are going to a birthday or some kind of holiday for a no longer young woman, never give jewelry and any items that hint at age.
If, for example, you are fond of tennis, and your friend (or girlfriend) loves to go to classical music concerts and takes piano lessons, you do not need to give a tennis racket as an indication of what to do. This can cause confusion and sometimes irritation.
Any gift should not be interpreted ambiguously. If you give a floor scale to a person who wants to lose weight, then he is unlikely to be very happy to once again remember his excess weight.
Those who do not drink alcohol should not be presented with exquisite spirits, even if it is a unique bottle that has been stored for 1000 years in the cellars of France.
Always give gifts sincerely. A present is, first of all, the personification of your desire to please the person to whom the gift is intended. And don't be offended if you don't get something in return.
Never mention the value of the gift or how difficult it was for you to buy it. The person may feel guilty. Then the gift will give him only discomfort and negative experiences.
You should not make expensive gifts to your bosses on your own behalf. This can be viewed as a bribe or bribery. From such a relationship, yours will not only not improve, but can become very tense.
Pack even a small souvenir in a beautiful box, wrap it in colored paper and tie a bow. This will create a holiday mood.
