The point is…good will

Posted on February 13, 2009 at 02:36pm

After I told my dad that my boss gave me a raise he emailed me the following...

Suggestion:

instead of thank you card/note, you may buy a small gift for Alex. The gift may not have to be expensive.

Chinese usually consider so call “two-way” gift giving. This means when person A (rich) gives person B (not rich) gifts several times. The person B usually need give person A gift in return. The gift value is not the point. The point is friendship exchange.

My parents like to do this the other way. They always say "it's almost Christmas, why don't you buy your teacher something?"
