So paying a visit to a company that we deal with, office full of young women working in PR, what kind of 'token gesture' do you arrive with to thank them for their continued efforts? 😐
Any suggestion or previous experience's welcome, expect some good advice here, don't let me down 🙂
big tin of celebrations
work in PR!!
I'd just buy myself some ear defenders!
oooh risky!
chocolate works everytime. I work in a department which is predominantly women.
some of those chocolate miniatures are good.
roses/ quality street if their average age is 80.
Just pay my travel costs and I'll be there, you're welcome
Diet Coke break?
A skip of kittens
Food definately. Chocolates, cookies or similar.
Spanish Fly FTW
Chocolate. 60% of the time, it works every time.
trend in my office seems to be cup cakes rather than chocolate. but don't think chocolates would be refused.
in our office where half the department is women under 30, when anyone comes back from a business trip or holiday abroad, which is practically every other day, they are obliged to bring back a 'treat'.
things that go down well are chocolate miniatures, boxes of posh chocolates, sweeties, lollipops and surprisingly, cheese.
things that don't go down well are liquorice, dates, meat, seaweed crackers (!), chocolate liqueurs and those hyper-sweet sweets you get from the Indian sub-continent.
Your phone number?
Me.
Just as a point of clarification, when you say it's an office FULL of women does this mean that there'll not be enough space for you unless you push your way into the room through a crush of ladyness and displacing 1 (or possibly more) of them to outside the room in order to allow you in?
cakes/chocolate
hummingbird bakery nearby?
Nothing says "we appreciate your efforts" more than a tabard.
Cookies or CAKE....nom nom nom! I'm sure chcolates wouldn't be refused!
Or even better give them a half day .. send them all home early! ALWAYS a winner....
tequila
Nice chocolates (ie, better than Thorntons). PR girls tend to be pretty slim IME so they probably won't want a massive family tin of Celebrations...
vibrators or tampax depending on what week.
sorry to rain on everybody's parade but...
let me get this straight
1) there's a PR company;
2) your company pays the PR company to do PR stuff
<deep pockets, short arms>
why on earth do you need to give the PR company's employees chocolate/cake/something else? Isn't the fact that they're getting paid for an honest day's work enough?

something's telling me timc has a penis. Next.
j_d, I believe the OP is hoping to shag one, some or all of them
Failing that, go for Houns, naked apart from a ribbon round his nob and lots of nutella - always works for me
One!
Cup cakes & champagne
They are like cat nip for PR types

I fear you're missing the point.
a) timc- BMW driving music industry executive on a mission.
b) Office full of PR totty.
Chocolates should do the trick and don't forget your best shiney suit. 😉
If you have any decent regional delicacies that you're able to take in then perhaps that may be a good idea, depending on where you are of course!
For us I'm a Melton Mowbray lad and Stilton always goes down well! 🙂
Lindt chocolate bunnies, bought in boxes of 60.
The young ladies will eat them, the older ladies will take them for their kids.
Don't forget to leave your business card with your private number!

thought it might be something like that. but I still don't get it. must be a Lahndan thing
Tom Jones records and knickers....
What to buy? An office-full of women?
or even
What to buy: An office, full of women!
Last time I had cause to bring food into the office, I brought two dozen Krispy Kreme donuts.
I wasn't sure how well they'd be received with diets and all. They were gone inside of ten minutes.
Buy 'em all a pair of slinky knickers.
Obviously some of the ladies will take offence and report you.
Others will have a laugh and stick then on their head or just throw them away.
None of these ladies interest you...
The last 2% will wear said knickers and hijack you in the toilets. That will be the best investment you make.
agree with samuri. worked in large supermarket. gave 4 ladies same 'personal' gift at xmas for been really supportive during the year and two came back with offers i could nt refuse one thanked and said she would but didnt dare and 4th never said a word. frankly i was more intrigued by what the 4th did with hers!
Penis shaped straws?

Yeah **** that for a game of soldiers....if I did something along those lines one of them would turn out to be a psychotic feminist that is friends with a lawyer.
Really unflattering baggy t shirts.

No harm in showing appreciation for peoples efforts, you usually benefit from it in the long run!
