There's just no Christmas miracle at r/AmIthe*sshole. We found a drama at work worth sharing to you.
It's not an unusual thing to do a gift exchange at the office. OP's coworkers have a Christmas gift exchange every year with a budget of around $30.
OP, being a decent person, always tries to get thoughtful gifts based on the recipient's wishes. However, she consistently receives underwhelming and under-budget gifts, like cheap chocolates and makeup sets.
This year, when asked to participate by her boss, OP decided to opt out, explaining that she's tired of receiving bad gifts despite putting effort into her choices. The boss told her to be grateful for what she gets, emphasizing that it's the thought that counts.
OP wonders if she's the A-hole for deciding not to join this year. Let's see Reddit's verdict!
