To make a long story longer: I exchanged gifts last year with two coworkers. This year, the one that I (and most other people in the office) really don't like just assumed we'd do it again. She's incredibly materialistic. For example--she emailed me a picture of her 9 ft. tall Christmas tree (and included how much she paid for it) and added that she'd have to get out the Kirby (an incredibly expensive vacuum cleaner) to get up the extra needles. She just bought a new house and had to throw in the price of all the appliances she bought. I gave a good friend/coworker of mine a donation to the HSUS (she's an animal lover) last year, and this other coworker turned up her nose and made some offhand comment. I got her (the coworker in question) some gourmet coffee and a cute coffee mug from Target, and the FIRST thing she did was flip the mug over to see who made it. Regardless of what I buy or how much I spend, it'll be money wasted and she won't appreciate it. continued...
