Twenty-two percent of workers plan on exchanging gifts with coworkers this holiday season, while 21 percent are buying a gift for their boss, according to a new survey.
Now for the strange part—Respondents were asked to share the most unusual gifts received from coworkers. Here are a few odd gifts:
- 50 pounds of fresh Louisiana shrimp
- A toothpaste squeezer
- A hand-painted porcelain clown with silk clothes on it
- A plaster cast of a coworker’s hand
- Camouflage toilet paper
The survey was conducted online within the United States by Harris Interactive® on behalf of CareerBuilder®.
