I don’t. And don’t expect any from others. I think it would do preferential treatment if you were someone of power in the company.

Yeah that's never been a thing for any of the places I've worked for.

Last year I didn't because I had moved to a new department and didnt' really know people that well. That being sadi this year I made everyone a small little treat bag. Its nothing major, just some candy, a card to each person, a little hand sanitizer and a keychain that I got for each of them in Paris earlier this year.

Making a lot of money relative to the average but feeling poor? Median after-tax income was ~$55,000 in 1981 and was ~$73,000 in 2020. Using a Bank of Canada inflation calculator $55,000 in 1981 is equivalent to ~$165,000 today, which would put someone in the top 10% of earners today. But in 1981 the median family had that extra money. Who can I blame?
